Launched at shores around 6:45am and fished the kelp for calicos, without any luck started targeting more structure and after a pretty slow morning of fishing with nothing but some bites my warbait swimjig got slammed by a legal cabezon, first time catching a cabezon and an overall fun day out on the water with my two friends! :D

Knifed a hog cab a few months ago and didn't get as much meat off him as I thought I would. How did you fair?

captnblood34 Yeah it was a pretty boney fish but I actually got quite a good amount for it being so boney. How do you usually cook it? My first time catching a cabby, I've cooked sculpin pretty good which seems to be similar.

Luck? Seems I'm low on it.. Lost more fish than the next 10 guys combined... Lost 2 really good ones but did manage a personal best calico at 5.2 pounds.

Hey guys... not to be a party pooper - I found this by accident trying to find the legal length for a Cabezon...

DFG site says Cabezon fishery is closed until April 1 for all boat-based anglers. Does that include us? I'm guessing not, since you were talking with DFG/DFW on the beach.

Keeper length is 15" for all you Cabezon lurkers out there. :)

You're looking at the central management area and he caught the fish in the southern management area, he's good to go or the DFG would have ticketed him. http://www.dfg.ca.gov/marine/mapregs5.asp
