south bay- the deep south?

The only thing I've been able to sight fish are Corbina from shore. They like real skinny water. I bet if you can tie a sand crab pattern you'd kill em.

The only fish breaking the surface are usually mullet. You can launch at J street marina. If you want a better chance at a bonefish launch out of bayside or pepper park.

just be careful of your location. some of the best bone fish area is in the san diego bay national wildlife refuge

no fishing in this area

if you have a cell phone i highly suggest to get an app called
fish alerts

it's free

Thank RoadX, I was unaware that was a closed area. I'm coming up on 2 years of being out here from boston and finding so many of the best looking spots around here are closed off. On second look there may still be a few spots that might have what I'm looking for I just have to mind the map. Also is fish alerts an iphone app? I couldn't find it in the google play store.

Only two years and you figured it out!!!!!!! Most politician living here their entire lives have still not figured this out......eliminate the greatest fishing areas, further crowd "weak" fishing spots....ensured further regulations keeping "them" in business of saving the environment. Pretty slick business model I have to admit.....

So who's in? saturday is a 10:16 low, usually in a flats fishing situation looking for fish in skinny water, this is prime. The sun if it's out will be fairly high for visibility and the fish should follow the tide up onto the flats and feed on crabs, shrimp and minnows.

I have seen a few. There's tons of them at LJ but once again can't fish there. Not a big fan of surf fishing but that's likely cause I haven't done much of it.
