So your going to be fishing Cabrillo beach (aka "The Sewer") huh? Well contrary to what the nickname implies, it is actually a great place to fish. Many of us learned to fish off of our kayaks at Cabrillo, and it will always hold a special place in our hearts. With that being said, you can catch halibut, bass, rockfish, sculpin and a few other species regularly, year round there.

Drag a sardine around there with a dropper loop or a 3-way swivel type set up and you can catch pretty much everything. Better yet fish bigger baits like mackerel and keep the by-catch to a minimum and target bigger halibut.

What's great about Cabrillo is there is a variety of structure there to be fished and explored. High spots, drop off's, ledges, flats, channels, rocky structure, docks, sewer pipes, kelp, shallow water habitats, pilings etc. Also there is a bait barge there so you don't have to spend time trying to make bait if you don't want to....And not to mention that open water can also be accessed if needed or wanted.
