I did Ed. I'm not sure what is going on. I keep a big plug on one rod in case I see the birds feeding on the surface to cast at the bait ball. I never saw the birds feeding on bait balls yesterday either. I think I will try terminal island next week and see if maybe I'm just having a dry run at Chula Vista.

Maybe your moving your jig to fast
Try dropping your leadhead straight down to bottom wined up a couple of turns off the bottom and put rod in pole holder and let current drift you plus slow padding.
That way the fish doesn't sense your mojo...thats what I do....plus casting

I didn't want to go there because I worry about my wife's boat sinking but this is fishing man and if her boat sinks then I can always fall back on widower sympathy to get a new wife.

At least you're getting out there Harry. I've been too busy to fish for the past month.

I had a long spell away from the salt. In the early spring when the stripers come ,into shore to feed we hit that two or three times a week and load up on stripers. Fun to catch and less than an hour from home. We go up and fish the evening bite and still get home early enough for me to get up and go to work the next morning. San Diego is a two hour drive for me so I can't fish it as often. Newport is almost as long on the road because of the 91 freeway but it's about 60 miles closer. I will keep banging away, as I've said before, I love fishing, even when I'm not catching. Terminal Island this Thursday I think. Then I have to try LJ, even though the surf scares me in this kayak I'm fishing from.

That's good. The stripers should be getting active. Are you shore pounding or yakking?

Shore pounding, if I could be on the water at sun up I would fish from the yak but as soon as the sun hits the water the stripers go deep.
