6-15 PL Kelp
 

Decided to launch from Dog Beach and see how far south I could get in a few hours. Launched at about 5 and noticed a couple going for an early morning skinny-dip just down the beach from me. lolSurf was pretty friendly, only took one over the bow. Made a couple sardines and a handful of macs before my sabiki was tangled into an impressive snarl that was beyond my patience. Trolled those and some frozen squid all the way down along the drop off past Sunset Cliffs Park until I was about straight out from the Navy Fleet Training Center up on the hill for nothing but a couple of nibbled baits. As daylight set in I noticed a wicked red tide. :(

Saw some birds diving further out but it turned out to be a waste of energy. Headed back towards land and picked up a ling on a mack trap rig...

On the way back north I hopped from kelp canopy to canopy pot-holing for calicos and only managed this guy on a Trix...

Beautiful conditions minus the red tide but not very exciting. Both fish released. Passed a couple of guys in inflatables on the way down who were going to try to get in on the calicos.

People fish places other than La Jolla? Thanks for the report. Bummer about the red tide.

Radical! La Jolla is for P*ssy's! lol Nice to see Pt Loma pics, thanks for the report,

Thanks for the report. (that was me skinny dipping, BTW - nothing is sexier than a moonlight swim in the mouth of the San Diego river.) :cheers1:

lollollol Gotta love OB!

Cool, nice to see a report from Pt Loma!

:cheers1:

Glad to see someone fishing somewhere different. :luxhello: Cool place to fish with way less of a crowd.

That water looked BAD................a guy from my job surfed is some red stiff last year and I think he took antibiotics for at least 11 months (STAFF INFECTION)!!

turd water is the worst feels like your fishing in the san diego river
