Newport Pipe Question - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Yeah, I fish the Pipe at Dana. Never heard of one in Newport. Is it north towards Newport Pier?

The pipe is easy to get to... Head out of the harbor at about a 45º angle. When you hit about 45' bear left and and stay in that depth. The pipe will come up about 8' off the bottom. The pipe lines up with the red buoy outside the harbor mouth and the 2 barber poles about a mile out. You won't see the poles though until you're about halfway out. Good luck and bring lots of lead. It can really eat 'em up.

BTW, all the traps are gone so you definitely need your FF.

There is a pipeline up a little north of Newport, not sure the exact location, fished it many times on the half day boats.

Shoots out from the Santa Ana River in this area. Easy to see on your sonar.

Bolsa is more north between Huntington and Seal Beach. I like the surf perch fishing on 4lb gear there.
