Quang, those look like some toad rock fish. Sure wish I had found some while searching the edges of the deeper canyons at LJ. Tight Lines!

Great bunch of fish. Heading out to Redondo tomorrow, hope to find a few like those!

My son and I went out around the Sacramento 250-350ft. Caught a few rock fish but barely keepers lol. Beautiful day in any case. Using a new Lowrance Reveal 50/200 transducer. Much better clarity and no distortion in 400+ depths compared to my old finder. At least I have a better chance at spotting those big boys going forward.

Well done David! I use the lower frequency and bottom lock to get a better picture of the bottom. Not sure about the Lowrance, but with the Garmin, I can record the sonar reading and view them on my computer. Just do a quick review to see what I might have missed while on the water, especially on the Solo Skiff, I tented to go quicker to cover more area and might missed some rockpiles. I mark the one I missed and go back to it on the next session.

Just curious, Which transducer did you go with for the Lowrance Reveal?

Thank you, Mark. I've heard LJ have some good rockfish spots.
