So do most of you who fish DP launch out of the kayak and jet ski center or from the boat launch?

I launch out of Baby's Beach (mothers beach?) toward the back of the harbor. Its only about an extra 10 min trip vs the boat launch, but the parking is free, and you can get there as early as you want.

I launch out of the boat launch because i paddle and its a lil longer trip for me and they have a wash down station there thats is free so i can wash everything off there and air dry on the way home and the bait barge is right there.

I was rigged up with the hook tied straight to the braid, sliding sinker and a split shot to keep that from going all the way to the hook. Not sure what the name of that type would be. I ended up switching to a light wire at the end due to so many that bit through the line. Was originally trying to get the lad on some halibut and bass with maybe a keeper.

I launch from DP Jet Ski and try to get out there by 9am, I live in Menifee and it is a long drive. But I can do it earlier if you guys want to start out sooner. I usually stay out until sunset, unless I run out of bait.

Weather permitting, and barring any unforseen family events, I will be out there this Saturday. Might bring Amos, the boy in the pic, if it is okay with his mom.
