Last day of fishing the now closed Scripps area - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Funny thing, coastal pelagics (bait) in the MPA north of the pier is open only to recreational take. When they cut that deal to allow us to continue fishing bait at the pier (a concession we ripped from them -

Tyler), Everyingham was supposed to have access too. Somehow they "lost" that part.

If you ask the DFG, they'll tell you fish that aren't legal to take (yellowtail north of the pier) must be released even if that means dead. The same principle rules rockfish. Say you pull up one too many bloated salmon grouper or canary, you've got to leave it as a floater or risk a fine.

Thanks amigo. We need a business man and outdoor enthusiast on the council. The second largest city in the state has to have some clout to help slow this down.

Sherm
Since you brought it up "you running for city council" as I know you've solicitied people close to me for support

Im curious what exactly would that do for us regarding issues like this that have already gone into effect on a statewide level?
