Not far at all. I'm sure you could catch them right outside the harbor but wouldn't recommend it just for the sake of avoiding boat traffic (wear a life jacket either way). Head to the right toward the pier dragging a small jig or spoon near the surface. Mess with speed and how much line you have out periodically until you figure out what's working. If you have a depth finder 200' would be a reasonable target but don't worry if you're paddling blind, they are all over the place.

I do solo after work trips pretty often, if you're ever able to get on he water around 3-4pm during the week let me know and we can meet up.

Cheers!
