Hey Gabe

2 small vermillion rockfish
** get used to it the area has been over fished in the last couple of years
1 copper rockfish
Nice
1 short sand bass in (180ft of water strange)
**I have got some really nice turd rollers in the 180 foot range

1 lizard fish
** You are off the rocks

1 sculpin
*** usually good size ones out ther

I also have a DragonFly, with no adjustments to the FF the fish usually look like a fuzzy mess on the bottom. When you see this mark you spot on GPS and give it few tries. Also, don't be afraid to drop a mack down to the bottom looking for LingCod, they are there ... trust me.
