Nph 1st Timer

Jon,
I would suggest hooking up with someone who fishes that area on a regular basis. That will shorten your learning curve big time. As far as the conditions
go, I'm an early morning guy. By 10:30 the wind is picking up and the sailboats
are on their way out. So is everyone else. This boat traffic can really make the water choppy and the fishing miserable. I like to hit the water around 6:00 A.M.
Usually the water is like a mirror then and it is quiet and peaceful. My favorite kind of conditions. Not only that, there is less traffic on the way down to the water. I fish San Diego Bay a lot. You are welcome to join me and my friends anytime.

Robert,

Thanks for the invite, I'd like nothing better to join a veteran on the water. I have much to learn and I know that I would gain valuable experience fishing with you or others like you. I don't know your schedule but my days off vary somewhat. My next day off is thursday, if your not busy let me know if you'd like to fish. If that doesn't work PM me and we can figure something out.

Tight lines and paddle well,

Jon

NICE!!

Glad you finally got the spotties!

Just keep doing what you are doing and I think you'll start to see the patterns. Fish tight to the structures (docks, mooring cans, eel grass, etc...) and you'll pick it up.

"Usually" the spotties just hammer the spinnerbaits and don't tap them like maybe they would a swimbait/grub. Keep working the baits and you'll get one.

If you are interested in fishing Huntington Harbor one evening, during the week, let me know. I can usually get out by around 6PM and fish until just after sunset. We can pick a day when conditions are right for this place.
