Is there anything north of the harbor worth looking into?

Thanks, Dave

Hey P,
I have only been out there one time with the gang, there is a bait barge
right close if you launch from the CG station, really nice there, we were targeting Ts, out the mouth and out into 100 150 feet and south then hit the kelp approx 2 miles up, I have been told to plan for the tide and winds that pick up in the afternoon so figure that into your plans, but ask Matt or Jorge as I believe they have been frequenting that area, what are you tired of DP...I can't wait to get back there...good luck out there I am staying up north this weekend...too much traffic
