Tonight was what hot summer Pink fishing nights are made of...
My wife goes out the door to drop our son off some where. The sun is just going down over the Olympics, I feel like I can escape to the beach for my first outing of Pink fishing for the year. Haven't even been down to recon the beach this year. I walk up...3rd cast, fish on! Bonk! Very bright fish, not like the soft river I usually enjoy.
Cast I think 7 more times, 10th cast, Bam/Bonk!
People on the hill top yelling expletives in excitement. I turned and left 20 minutes after I got there. Got home, wife was just getting back to the house. "Oh hey babe, look what I found while you were out" (-:

Tide was very high, throwing a pink buzz bomb, 3". Casting a couple hundred feet, but the fish hit between 20-40' from shore.
