Unfortunately, this is the case. No boat fishing out to three miles. Spearfishing only for YT, WSB and I think Bonito.
Of course, you can travel out past three miles and look for kelp paddies and breezing tuna.
This used to be a fun place to fish since it is nearby, great parking and has lots of good structure. Grab a rod and a few plastics and hit up the nearby kelp for a quick afternoon of calico catch and release.
Originally it was going to be no shore fishing but the Park Service complained to Fish & Game after the MPA was locked and loaded and got it changed.
It's open north of Moonlight so launching at Ponto's on a low surf day and working back towards Moonlight is another alternative.
