Bolsa Chica Basin MPA
 

I know that the Bolsa Chica Basin area, just south of Huntington Harbor is restricted to yakin and fishing. I had a question, however. If you ever go to the inlet to the MPA, you will see TWO bridges. The first one is the heavy bridge that cars can pass over, I think, but then there is a second bridge that only supports people walking over it.

The warning signs are posted on this SECOND bridge, so I assumed that it was ok to fish past the FIRST bridge but just not go past the SECOND one. Is this true?

I'm asking because Benichi and I were fishing here the other day and one of the personnel from the preserve area (presumably) kind of scolded us and indicated that we couldn't even pass the first bridge.

Nevermind guys... I apologize. If you zoom in on the DFG website it clearly shows that the 1st bigger bridge IS the boundary. I should've consulted it first. Good thing we didn't catch anything there haha.
