Hey Gregg,
Do you know what I remember most- you catching 0 fish, again....

ZING!

Pretty daring trying to haze me in public forums. I will take the high road on this one and tell you it wasn't that day that I caught 0 fish, it was the other 4 days we fished out there that I caught 0 fish. I will not use this forum to engage in banter with a guy who needs outriggers more than anyone I know and who has lost more gear than I have purchased. May this be put to rest.

There are no fish in Cardiff anyway. 8" rockfish... if that. All fish are in LJ.

Paddle north. I have the best luck in the reefs off Swami's. I usually park on the PCH, strap on the wheels and head to the beach. If you fish it a lot, it might be worth getting a state park annual pass then you can park right at the beach.

Dont worry Trout- Its not the most launch friendly area. As was made aware earlier in the post.....

I know... just kidding... plenty of room for everyone (kind of

). And I agree, because even when it is "flat" there are always 1-2 footers sneaking in. My favorite story ever is when I finally talked Art (Aguachico) to come fish with me up here. He was at his "playing weight" and I'll be nice and leave it at that. If you know Art, he's a big boy. He had just picked up a OK Cabo, which is actually a 3-man. Classic. He's one of the only guys that I know that can paddle that ship solo. Anyway, as he crept out toward the surfline I stood behind him and told him not to worry and shouted the now infamous quote, "Don't worry, buddy... I got your back!!!" That was the truth until he timed the set as bad as you can and all I saw was a blue missle with a very large Afro-American man comin' right back at me. I doubt he'll fish with me up here again, and it's probably the reason that many others won't frequent this spot a whole heck of a lot!
