Welcome to the board.
Check out the Baja trips to Mako-Ville. Look for my long posts from the past trips. The pictures won't show due to photobucket issues, but writing may be helpful. |

Welcome!
I can't help with the Yellows or Sheep, but I can tell you Calico are very common around the SoCal waters. Kelp, shallow structure, and around the islands are all common places to find some checkered bass... |

Wttm james...at least the socal version. There's at least one other ncka'er here on bwe that moved down a little while ago.
I'd say keep reading through the old forum posts here for more info. Your best/ worst bet for yt is probably in la Jolla. Launch is right on the beach at the end of avenida de la playa I think. It's about the same as doing a launch at MBK if you've ever done that. Note that you'll have to pass thru an mpa before you can fish. Calico is pretty common around the kelp. Sheephead aren't super uncommon either. That said, I know some guys that have gone for yt a dozen times before getting their first, and my friend caught one on his second outing... If you're serious about it, look in to getting a guide. Also there was a crew of 3 ncka guys that headed down here in labor day to fish. Maybe try hooking up with them next time.

Thats a personal call, but I've done ok staying close to the harbors and marinas in the LA area. All depends on how comfortable you are paddling in the ocean.
You can search my threads and see a lot of info on Marina Del Rey, which is pretty much my "home course." ![]() |
