Hey Mike, I heard they had live squid last week. We hit county last week to take a break from Newport. I got other plans this weekend so I won't be out there. Let me know how it goes.

Cheers

Grab the biggest Sardine you can find and drop it down at the rock piles. I know someone who caught a nice lingcod last week there. Good luck!

Oh damn

I took my boy to the pier (Balboa) and there was a good amount of bait around. Lots of good bait sized greenies. I dropped two down for a few hours for nada ( one Carolina, one on a 3 way with a trap). I chopped a few up and threw them in the net, hoping to attract some threshers. Ended up with a dozen small rock crabs that we threw back. Son had fun catching macs and crabs though.

Fished Newport yesterday. Got out around 6:30 am to a ripping incoming tide. Fished around the bait barge and had a ball catching calicos. Had probably 10-15 in a 1 1/2 hr. period. They were attacking the Gulp mullet in red. Saw one guy catching lots of perch using what looked like squid strips.

Went out of the harbor south to Corona to fish the kelp for some more bass. Very little kelp around compared to last year when I was down there. No love on a variety of swimbaits.

As I headed back in just off Corona beach there was a swimmer about a 1/2 mile out. Couldn't help but think of the swimmer who was attacked by the shark right there. Ballsy. You won't find me swimming in that water.

Headed back to the bait barge but the tide was slack and the fishing really slowed. All in all a fun day on the water.

Fished Newport yesterday too. Had two friends new to fishing with me so we rented a skiff. Made it out the barge and caught micro-barracudas, lots of bass and the odd mackerel. Bites died off around high tide and picked up after that. Hope to make it out on the kayak soon.
