The weather at Newport was 50° and sunny, which rarely happens in an Oregon winter. I grabbed a 10' fishing rod, some 1 oz. and 2 oz. pyramid sinkers, and some Gulp Night Crawlers.
Fishing the jetty was a new challenge. I lost 2 rigging setups, due to rocks, and another was lost during casting. The 2 oz. sinker was needed to cast out to point A, but it caught on the large boulders at point B and C. My sea bass was actually caught when my cast went to point B 75 feet towards the coast. The retrieve followed the Jetty, and the sea bass popped out of a crevice in the rocks to snag my hook.
