Wide Open Rockfish at Jurassic Rock (Redondo Beach King Harbor)

[AlwaysFishing]

You can find Rockfish from 150ft to 600ft (max depth allowed) in Redondo but I usually stays between 250ft and 450ft. I like deeper areas because less people fish it. Once weather gets warmer and calmer, I will be hitting the 450ft to 600ft areas to see what's down there. I am sure there are monsters sizes to be had. The shallower areas has been over fished so you will mostly find smaller sizes. I find they are most active when the current is moving from NW to SE. The current kicks up debris so you want to be on the south side of the canyon.

Check out Honeybadger Voodoo on Youtube. He have some very informative video specifically for the Redondo canyon. He's the reason I got in to kayak fishing.

Inspirational video Quang, Now that fishing is opened up to 100 fathoms, definitely check out the volcanic reef. Back in the late 70's the 1/2 and 3/4 day sport fleet hit it pretty hard for big Salmon Groupers, Chilis and Cows. By now it's probably ripe again.

Thanks John. I've got those Volcanic Reefs marked, but it is 10-12 miles out so I have not attempt it yet. I need a buddy with a Solo or Inflatable to go with me. Maybe I will try it alone when there is a flat day.

Awesome Quang. I will vicariously enjoy your videos whenever you make it out there.
