Pretty nice area. I fished that area so much and it can be very good on decent size calico bass. I haven't fished it last year (2007) with the tournament trail and all. Nice to be able to launch and paddle for 30 seconds and be fishing. They had this area on the 2006 trail stop and all in all It was a success. Very rare are the occasions at Cabrillo that you can launch and land in ankle slappers, usually it is anywhere from 2 to 5+ going out and coming in and they always seem to break close to shore. Definitely a location I hope to fish more this season. There are some pinnacles out in the deeper water that I'd like to find and mark on my GPS that have always yeilded nice calicos and sandys. There are some scattered rock piles off the break wall from the storms several years back that took sections of the wall out that can be good. If they have live squid at the receivers, dragging them along the breakwall, especially the middle section around the bend and mile markers can make for epic fishing. I hear stories of o.k. wsb fishing at times there but all I have managed at Cabrillo are the shortys. I have personally seen several 10+# calico bass come out of that area. Good luck in the future there and keep us posted. Thanks for the report.
