done two already, going back on the 4th. can't offer much advice on the big fish, but the calico are thick there. get weedless jigs like the warbaits and fish with swimmies in the thick of the kelp. spectra with a short top shot. also, have a few big MC slugs ready to go. (hint: fish slow, using only the reel to twitch and wind. don't set the hook. point the rod tip at the bait, let them take the slug, wait, watch the line look like a laser beam...then wind. once you can't wind anymore, then set. lessons learned the hard way!!) find the boilers and chuck right into there.
on the front side, get in really close to shore, just outside the surf break. cast right onto the beach, yes, hit the beach with the swimbait. then wind through the surf. keep the paddle close, or you'll get pulled in!! drags buttoned down.
as you drift the front side, you'll see mixes of shore and sheer cliff. the cliffs come down and there's a ledge that sticks out a bit then drops off sharply. bass hold on the ledge. cast right into the cliff, hit right at the base. wind as soon as it hits the water. hold on!!
as you drift, the water's very clear. you'll be able to see the shore structure and rocks. cast over them and wind.
have fun.
