Yeah lots of olives and blues (rockfish) in that section. they will be up top in the morning pretty thick. catch as many as you want on a 3 oz megabait (chovy or sardine). Plastic works good too. for reds fish the pillar looking structures with bait fish on top with the ff in 40-60 ft. have your swimbait at depth then cruise it over the pillar from up current. for lings go to a 4-5 oz megabait and start thumping the bottom. You can also try deep sixing a small rockfish and hover it over the botom a couple feet. For hailbut you need to get into the large circular openings in the kelp (100yds or more) and cruise your 4oz 6" orange swimbaits in a big circle inside and the perimiter about 5-10' from the edge.
Have fun out there!
