This Thursday, 1-26-17

Heading down to either Shelter Island or Mission Bay this Thursday. Anyone else planning for one of those 2?

No FF right now, so I want to hit some place I know. Besides, I'm not much for La Jolla !I know I'm a small minority!

Not this week, unfortunately. I wanted to get out on Friday, but it looks like I'll be land locked for a few more weeks.

How long does it typically take you to get to those spots around SD from your area (OC?) I'd like to pick your brain a bit later on decent spots around the LA and Orange Co area....

That's awesome. I really don't mind driving to get to fish. I used to drive from Tucson to Phoenix almost weekly to get on 2-5lbs bass. LOL

If I'm fishing San Diego or Mission Bay I drive two hours, fish about 6 and then 2 hours home. I try to be on the road home before 1pm so when I hit Moreno Valley I'm not stuck in rush hour traffic.

If I'm fishing Newport it takes a little over an hour if I leave real early, or I get stuck in the 91 crawl and it takes almost as long as if I go to San Diego, which is why I normally go to San Diego.

I'm bummed. Didn't make it out this morning due to a stomach issue. Then I thought i'd brave the wind tomorrow. But, I looked up the weather and it's gone from 12mph at launch to 20+mph. Guess next Thursday will have to do.

If it's any consolation, wind picked up off LJ around 11:30-12 and made it real bumpy. But it was a NW wind, so I'm not sure how that would affect the big bay.

Tomorrows wind will be an offshore wind which is more favorable than onshore for fishing. Id rather fish in 20 mph offshore wind than 10-15 mph onshore. Blows you out to the spot faster.

Supposed to be blowing 28-41mph in San Clemente tomorrow. That's just not safe in my mind.
