Skipped school cause I was bored and drove up 3 hours to the beach fished the night and morning before coming back. Saw lots of bait, a good sunrise and sunset, and a few massive bait schools and some good fish. Caught 3 keeper Spanish mackerels and a few other smaller ones along with a large blue, several pin fish and a flounder. Good trip and tight lines
