Most every beach on Calvert cliffs is infested with sand right now. So last Thursday I got off work early and headed to one of my all time favorite beaches. The tide was low at 9 but when I got there it hadn't came in too much. I saw a guy walking off but didn't get the chance to speak to him. When I got to the main part of the cliffs I didn't find much until I got half the way down. Then I hit the sweet spot. Who ever had been there before me failed to look at, what it my opinion was the most appealing 20 ft stretch of beach there. It was very dangerous with a boulder the size of my bathroom standing on a pedestal ready to fall at any moment. I pulled all 3 Beauties out of this little area. All were fresh washout megs. I couldn't believe it. In 5 years this is the first time Ive ever got 5 megs off this beach.

 

It was a superior day. 3 dolphin teeth. contortus were plentiful. 3 makos. 2 perfect cows. It may have been the best trip Ive had this year. at one of the most unlikely locations
