I am going to fish EKG with Bill on Saturday, subject to weather (I can hard confirm Friday).  Company welcome.  However, remember that this is an open beach launch/landing.

Also, I'm not posting this in reaction to the Bean post.  I think the points made in that post are good.  Bill and I raft up almost every time we fish SMC, and I'd raft up with anyone else who wanted to.  I don't have a death wish, but I recognize an element of risk on each trip.  Respect the ocean - it's not just sharks that can get you. 

I guess what I'm saying is, I respect those of you who choose to avoid SMC, and hopefully I won't get flamed for going.

No flaming here Mike. I appreciate you going and especially letting those of us with smaller gonads know when the fishing is hot.

That way we will know when to sneak down for a trip or two.  :smt002

Heads up I was there over the weekend and the main reef below the lighthouse was a very slow pick. I think you might do better out deeper because the water was all discolored inshore.

Let us know how you do.

Whats EKG? Im new to fishing the SMC but would love to find something closer to home. Sharks are something to respect but will not deter me from fishing.

EKG is between bean and pigeon pt. Called EKG because of what the structure looks like on the FF I believe. Beach launch is right near the first exit to get out to the lighthouse.

Otter - I was on the same reef two weeks ago and it was slow.  However, I am hoping the water is a little warmer and there is more bait in, and I'll be a little deeper.

re: EKG - you got it right - first beach on the Pigeon Pt. Road intersection with Hwy1, heading South.

My weekends are jammed until the middle of next month. Would love to finally make it out and fish the southern part of the area & EKG with you Mike, but it looks like I'm shorebound for a while.

Darius - hate to do this to you - but Sunday is looking more doable than Saturday.  Let's see how the weather shapes up.

Sean - looking forward to fishing with you this summer.  Let's try and do it before August!

Wish I could go but it's between ARW an PIF so I don't have the WAF to do EKG this weekend. Don't take any newbies out of EKG that don't know what these initials mean.   :smt003
Really looking forward to "Rafting up" with you
