fishing report San Diego Bay

The ocean looked rough so I went to SD bay shelter Island yesterday morning. Strong current until 1P.M.
I used a dropper loop with cut squid targeting Halibut. Caught 4 small Halibut, many mackerel, and many lizard fish.
The biggest Halibut was about 15 inches,so no keepers,but at least I am starting to see them for the first time this year for me.

love SI we were down there a couple weeks ago, the flats at the opening on the otherside of the rocks was alive with birds might sneak over to the otherside to check it out weather permitting, good luck out there, hope you are right about the storm this weekend...

Gave it a go Sunday morning before the winds really picked up but absolutely nothing was biting on the incoming tide off shelter north through the Bali Hai shoal. Tucked in behind the island to fish some docks but nothing there. Well, except for a chunky lizard fish with a suicidal death grip on my plastic...love when they hold on right into the boat with no hook set! White caps building when we came in. Always next weekend....

I haven't been fishing for years, starting up again with my son, been about 30 years since I fished SD Bay. What is a drop rig for halibut and where are the good spots, used to be the helicopter pads.

We were down there a month ago, current rippin...green bouys on the right shy of the mouth, rock fish, go across the street and fish the shallow sand for the butts, have fun, 82 meters from the pylons is great for calico, just keep an eye on the gun boat...

Dont mean to be a bother but, can you be a little more specific about where the bouys are and pylons and that whole gunboat thing sounds a little like we might be getttin to close to the base huh?
