Dana Point 6/20
Were plenty of boats/lines in the water outside the headlands. Dana Wharf had two boats close. the haul for me was all bass all released. Mostly all caught deeper w/ plastics (war head & skirt). Brown and smelt green/white did well. Only 2 fish on the Halibut rig and they weren't the right kind (bass & big lizard fish). My observations... 1) 8 # mono is about as light I can handle near the kelp. 2) Jigging that war-bait off the bottom is almost certain to catch something. (this time nice sand bass) 3) Going out in the afternoon into pm is challenging. after the sun sets day-light goes fast. Water temp reading was 72. Have a great sunday! |
