To ease the fight against the tide, you can stay to one side or the other in the shallower water where the current isn't so bad. Just stay far enough from the rocks to be safe. once outside, the best bet for pelagics is to turn south. Th kelp beds are 30-60 ft deep, so if you go parallel to them in deeper water. Theres a shelf of sorts that drops off between 90-110 ft all along there. The kelp starts at the north end of Sunset cliffs and goes clear to the end of Point Loma. It can be a long haul. I usually try to catch macs right outside the bay, but it's been hit or miss lately. Good luck if you go. I'm probably headed out there on Saturday.
Yeah, that short interval stuff was pretty bad today. It's suppose to stick around tomorrow am, so I think I'm going to punt and end up there Saturday as well.

Thanks for the tips. I'll be in a camp PA14 and on Ch 69, so feel free hit me up if you end up out there.
