Oxnard?
I grew up there. Last time I fished there was 20 years ago and it ROCKED! I plan on going back soon and I hope it is still that way. I think I heard about some restrictions on fishing around the Jetty. Someone correct me if I am wrong.

Is there a Silver Strand in Oxnard, or do you mean the one near IB?

Silver Strand is a straight up surf launch. The surf can be big so look for rips when launching. It's all sand bottom with no stucture or kelp so you can guess the species. You can also fish the bay side there so there are two good yakfishing options.

Like he said it can be thumping surf, but there is kelp out there, just south of the Pier is a pretty thick bed.

Update on our trip... To much surf for me...Although I did find out that you could launch from the east side of the strand out into the bay. Set out for some flat ones...nope! made a few drifts south of where I launched, nada. So packed up headed back to the trailer... Enjoyed the location, even though no fish to show in the camera, finished up with a cold one a tall shot of T'killya, surf fishing...by the way nada again! Until another day!

We camped there last summer and it was wall to wall people. The waves were small but we never launched from the beach.

If you can get your hands on a copy of the MAY 07 Western Outdoor News Magazine there's a GREAT article writen by Tony Pena about fishing the strand. You may be surprised!

I've surffished the bayside many times with live ghostshrimp and its always been great fishing no matter what time of the year. (the little lagoon is a dead area). Only thing on the ocean side is perch and rays.
