Doheny isn't too bad when it's windy as long as you don't go too far south, but if it's too choppy it's not fun. I would have stayed out long enough to get some big Macs or Smelt in the tank and put the wind to work with drifts through the channel looking for some big Halibut. It would be fun to try out a drift chute I think. There's lots of decent Leapards in the harbor right now too if you're into that.

Launched at 1 in search of pelagics? A early start is your best bet good sir. Winds are practically non-existent in the early hours.

Public apology
I was not trying to incinuate or suggest to not post reports about LJ with my last response to your previous thread. I guess some guys were trying to give you some heat . Hope you did not take it the wrong way . Anthony .

It's smart to be careful and take note of conditions. I was out there too and those swells/winds were not conducive to easy paddling.

I was thinking the same thing. If you're going for Tuna you don't want to get caught in those conditions even on your way back in.

This was nothing related to other report. I am proud of other report. This report is because this is where I chose to go. I figured I would give up to date reports from now on no matter how good or bad trips is.

Everything here is cool and accurate. Wife and I in a tandem Hobie Outfitter, last year, caught a yellowtail close to the pipe, the winds were so bad and so strong (25 mph) and choppy it took us almost three hours to get back to the harbor. All rods and Implements lowered to the deck waves pounding over my wife she would not let go of her Yellow Tail I almost called the Coast Guard on numerous times. Forevermore I am weary
