I also paddled over to salt creek on sat for a short hali, 2 sandies, a sculpin, a small 12-15lb bsb, and 2 weird looking shrimp/lobster things (did some research and i think they are called mantis shrimp, very odd). Man that's quite a paddle! Also had tail bitten off my swimbait by what i presume was a hali. Not quite worth it for the paddle since i decided to go ALL the way to the point north of salt creek, but I'd go back if there were some better conditions.
I mainly fished the outside edge of the kelp. Maybe next time I'll try the inside. Noticed 2 kayakers sitting to the north of the headlands/strands beach area. Next time I'll stop and say hi. |

So you were as far north as monarch beach? It's a friggen long paddle there, especially if the wind and current is going against you. Do try the capo beach area and the inside 9-20 ft of water. It's a quick launch (from palisades & beach rd). |

Ya I've been meaning to try that area but waiting for the water to warm a bit and the halibut move in shallower. It seems pretty similar to the area north of the pier which i fish quite a bit. Is this the case or is there more reef structure? |
