not exactly a fishing report

at the dive shop yesterday i was asking some students who just returned from the breakwater doing their checkout dives and they said there was an awful lot of "flounders" big and small there. i didnt get specifics but they said that there were so many. I dont know if the word flounder refers to halibut or sanddabs but if you are in the area paddling and fishing you might want to give it a whirl and drop a hook down.

just wanted to let you all know.

How about some underwater pics, GPS coordinates, and a weather report?     I'll bet they meant perch!

well i wish i had a first person account, yesterday was reported to be a nit surgy and milky vis from the surge. other than the flounder things there was no report of anything else. i think the surge would keep the rf hiding. i might go saturday and i'll post if i do. if not there, definitely to carmel.

I was messing around at the jetty last Saturday and talked to a fellow whom said he caught 6 dabs a few days prior. I was just there to take my son for a walk in his stroller and try out my new baitcaster. Only got a few taps on the plastic I was flinging; most likely small B+Ys or greenling. The Quantum GW casts great though (on sale at cabelas). It looks, acts, and feels just like the Cabo.

Gimme a hollar if you come down here this wknd John.

From a historical perspective,,,,,,

my how time flies when you're having fun,,,,,,

anyway I did my first checkout dive at the breakwater in '85.

And I still remember the place was loaded with flounder type fish of some sort, most way too small to get a hook in their mouth, at the time I saw no fish big enough to catch on a hook n line so I figured they were some species that just didn't get very big, maybe they're baby dabs staying outta the deep water for their own good....

Is the breakwall San Carlos Beach...with the showers, grass and 100+ divers?
