definitely a VERY NICE surprise in SDB, to hook up on a good sized Corvina.

they are personally my MOST FAVORITE fish to catch, in SDB.

another great thing about SDB, is that you can catch almost ANYTHING there.

over past 20 yrs fishing in SDB from skiffs & yaks & shore, i have caught Spotties, Calicos, Sand Bass, WSB, Halis, Bones, Macks, Lizards, Corvina, Corbina, Croaker, Cudas, Sculpin, Bat Rays, Sting Rays, Guitar fish, & Mantis Shrimp.

although, i still have never caught a Bonefish, which is often reported to be an awesome highlight in SDB as well.
if/when i am ever able to catch a Bonefish, i suspect it may surpass the Corvina as favorite BAY fish.

but as GREAT as SDB is, it still pales compared to a YT tugging on your line in La Jolla.
