San Diego & SoCal Fishing Forums

At 6:20 am, checked out under the pier area for sand crabs. Still micros, BB size. Beach loaded with salad (photo) + a lot in the wash as well. Barely fishable but decent perch bite for about an hour. Four 6 - 8 inchers, bait de jour mussel & blood worms. Did not see any signs of corbina or croakers in the skinny . . too busy keeping an eye on and trying to dodge the salad in the casting zone. Next hour or so the salad conditions worsened as tide was getting close to it's high. Couldn't feel a bite as line loaded up within 30 seconds or so. Impossible conditions so cut my session short at 8:15

Bummer, but thanks for posting. Beach was a little messy when I was there on Sunday morning but the water itself wasn't too bad. I was also there fishing as the tide was going out so that might've helped avoid the mess. The currents definitely had me reeling in fast at times so as not to have it snag my line!

Hey, you caught multiple fish in tough conditions, that's a win. It would have been unfishable for me.

Thanks for getting me heated up for our trip down next month… Nice fishing and please keep up the reports…
