Huntington Beach 5-1-22

[Midnightpass]

A no-fish report… Got plenty of sand crabs at the depot, then headed to Huntington… Pretty flat, with no visible structure… There was a shallow trench almost dry that would fill and maybe be fishable at high tide… Only fished from 6:30-8:30 for not a single nibble.. talked to a few other anglers and no bites for them either.. There were small patches of sand crabs showing up and down the beach… Maybe someday I’ll remember how to fish again. ….

Keep at it! At least the sand crabs are there.

Still better to have your feet in the ocean than not!

Sounds familiar Butch except you're at least finding sc's. Still just micro bb's on SD beaches when I've been out. Don't know if anyone else is finding them. Very poor month, skunk sessions or, at best, just dinks. Some hali's have been taken by those putting in a lot of time and shore pounding to find them. This time last year water was 3-4 degrees cooler at 60-61 with crab beds appearing & non perch species showing. Here's hoping the crabs show soon to get things going.

You guys need to get on the ball and get things warmed up for me... Time's-a-wastin'... It won't be but a few weeks before I'm poaching your fish off of your beaches... Or at least trying to. ....
