My friend Steve and I went to capitola this morning and got a big skunk. We happend to run into john out there while fishing the kelp and he mention the rock fish were better farther out. So we follow his recommendation and head out but we happend to run into some white seabass these babies were 3 to 4 ft long with some shoulders did our best but no love. I threw all I had, plastics tubebait's, scampi's, fishtraps, and assorted swimbaits, crankbaits, and jigged some steel all for not. If you know how to get these guys they are there outside the kelp north of the pier by pleasure pt. Good luck

Kevin

I forgot to mention someone hauled up a couple stripers while we were loading up the kayaks off the pier one was about 20lbs and the other about 10.

Kevin, must have been cool seeing the big ones. I have had a school of undersize WSB
ignore my anchovy just before a halibut ate it.  So, I'm not counting on catching a WSB
myself.

then again those so-cal guys soak mackerel for hours and hours and hours and hit
it pre-dawn to get one. maybe we just have to think like that too? cause they do get
caught here and there.

Brendan did catch one once from the yak.
