Caught two around the buoy, the other 4 were tight to the san juan rocks. You really have to pay attention in there as the swells came in about 5 minute intervals. The waves were refracting off the jetty and combining with the original swells to form A frame waves that were sneaky.

Ya I hate passing through that rough zone.

Also, the biggest sculpin I caught was when I was maybe 10-15' from the front of the San Juan rocks. It's definitely sketchy. Timed the swells, angled away from the rocks (I don't have a 180 drive...), chucked the double dropper with shrimp behind me and let it sink. Thought I was snagged at first but was pleasantly surprised when it started fighting
