I had a strange one yesterday. Drove over to San Roque and launched at 6:45 and headed to the half way reef toward the island. No love on the yellows but had good action sheepies, sandies and huge whitefish, and of course the ever present calicos. Wind started coming up around 9 so I headed in and worked the shoreline at San Roque with Krocs. Got a few corbs and small halibut. The biggest halibut was about 25 inches and somehow he managed to snag himself right in the middle his body on the lateral line. I've never had a 5 pound fish put up such a fight in 7 feet of water. It was literally like pulling in barn door.
