Planning to go out to NPH/Corona Del Mar by the bait barge this coming Monday from 6:00am to about 10am. Plan to to just stay within the harbor. Any recent fish report from the area?
Thank you!

With the Memorial Day Weekend upon us, be careful with the increase in ship traffic down there.

I was out fishing the points around the wedge and near the barge and it was choppy on Tuesday. Wore the stripe after 4 hours on the water.

Probably should have concentrated more inside the bay for Spotties instead of shooting
for Halibut.

Still, a bad day of fishing is still better than a good day at work....

Newport harbor may not be the best choice during the Memorial Day weekend.

c'mon guys. There has to be a place where this fellow can fish.

I've never done NPH, but I'm betting so long as you aren't trolling, have a head on a swivel and maybe just slinging plastics you should be okay.

Create your own luck and give us an updated report!

I was just asking about fish report but I really didn't think about boat traffic
Hmmm it gets pretty busy on a regular weekends during summer
I don't want to run into one of those big boats and they do go fast sometimes
Hmmm that maybe same for other harbors as well this weekend
