Got a hall pass tomorrow...where should I go?
Got the pass, all day. Ive got the 13' OK loaded and ready to go. But Im stuck between ideas and cant make up my mind...looking for help! 1. Carlsbad Kelp to pull on bass with squid strips and lead heads...always fun and a sure catch nearly every drop. 2. Try and drag the bottom for Halibut at the Buccaneer Pipe or Anderson Pipe or anywhere else (suggestions???). 3. Try my luck for the first time (in a yak) at La Jolla for the YT. 4. Paddle out to the Oceanside Artificial reef and see what bites (not rock fish season though). These are my options... Ive got cut squid, dropper loops, Irons, swim-baits, sabiki rigs....just dont want to waste the opportunity. Oh ya...no fish finder yet. All comments, ideas and criticism are welcome...after all I asked for it. Ya I know this is the wrong area to post but I know its where everyone goes so F-it. Oh I fished off the beach at the Carlsbad Lagoon today for nada...there now its a report. |

I will be at la jolla on wednesday, so my biased vote is la jolla. Water is supposed to be real calm and if you are gonna at least have the whole day to relax. Why not relax with a chance of catching something nice?

LJ. Bite seems to be decent. Even if u dont catch, you're bound to see some aquatic life.

I was out there today without my fishing gear, brought the wife instead.
I put her and her camera on a pod of dolphins for an hour. They pretty much circled her the whole time. It was awesome. Now I have to bring my daughter with her camera and me without a fishing pole tomorrow at dawn for the same experience. |

I am sorry you didn't catch anything, but sounds like you saw a lot of life. I will be out there tomorrow doing same thing.

Sorry you weren't able to bring home a trophy, but it sound like you brought back some nice images and good experiences.
