Just wanted to ask a few questions from ppl who have gone out since then
From what i can tell you just have to get out past the point near the kiddie pool ?

YES the new reserve stops just west of the point west of the cove.


from the regs it looks like you can pickup mackerel for bait inside the area ?

NO you need to be west of the both the bouys and the point at the cove. Just paddle west until you see other people fishing. The area they are talking about that is open to catch bait is north of the old reserve near the pier to blacks beach... the old reserve line is marked y the yellow bouys...

thanks for any info in advance

I don't think the DFG will be handing out tickets for a long time so I wouldn't worry about that.

Just go fish!

As long as you make sure you don't fish in the old reserve you should be OK.
