I went with my buddy on his boat on Saturday. We tried launching from DP, but they were full by 8:30. We then headed down to oceanside, launched, got a scoop of sardines from the barge ( all 5 of them, the rest macs). Chased a huge pod of dolphins for a few hours but no luck. Tried the butterfly jig and some irons along with live bait to no prevail. While trolling the cedar plug I managed to get this guy!!! Only fish on deck, but we're rookies so we were happy!

Reports from the 9 have gotten a lot better in the last two days, and there's always the off chance of a paddy for yt or dodo. Please someone come with me!

I'd like to but worried I'd slow you down, or I might not make it back!! I have an X Factor. If I go, I'd have to leave at zero dark 30, to get far enough off Shore. How long does it take you to get that far paddling?

I mean you just get out there and once you find clean warm water put out the trollers and bam you're in the game! Last time they came through there were fish caught 5 miles from MB. I think I was just a day or two too late.

It's not really about how fast you go, but just that you keep moving. I took my xfactor last time and it was great cuz I could carry a ton of food and drink and bait and gadgets.

This is gonna happen this year guys!

F%#$ I hate that phrase!
The SoCal window is so rare and fleeting, reacting to a bite/report is too late. SD is the place to look...today. Good luck again.

Isn't Pt. Loma/ SD Bay launch the closest to 9mi bank? I just plot the #on google map and it shows almost straight west from SD bay entrance. Just curious.
