Sounds like I need to spend more time near the bait barge. Glad somebody's catching fish out there!

The barge is a good spot but it can be dead at times too. Almost every dock in th harbor holds fish and you can get real close with your kayak. Drop a 3" hammer tail in X-mas tree color or olive green color with 1/4 oz jig head- I like using red head and try to cast or drop the lure right next to the vertical piling and let it sink all the way down- 90% of the time they will hit on the way down. If you hit some eel grass don't freak out just gently lift rod tip and most of the times it will come out and you will get bit. Keep lure on the bottom and lift and reel a little and let it drop back down- you will get bit.

Thanks for the tips! I'll give this a try next time I'm out there.
