I rounded up a crew consisting of my wife, Big Mac, and my friends 16yr old son Dylan (who had never really fished before) for a sunset outing.

Super low tide (I saw some nice structure!) slight on shore breeze, zero salad, clear warm water with no smell, 2-3 foot surf, pelicans diving, dolphins doing their thing, sun setting. Just awesome!

3 amigos making bait.


Surf fishing school with Big Mac


Dylan on his own


One big a$$ croaker. 8)


A solid 15" maybe a bit more if the tape was stretched right and thick!!


The tally, Dylan 1 big a$$ YFC and two BSP, Mike caught something, a few BSP's or whatever, and i suffered my first skunk. Best skunk ever!

No Spotfins. It seems they are mostly down your way. It's time to target Halibuts now!

Btw the SFC and Beans are still hangin around in South OC and SD.

Turns out my dad used to be a pro fisherman. A few years ago we went to this pond on some of our friends' property in the early morning. We did some topwater fishing and caught lots of bass! Decent size ones too!

I'm going try out my new 12' surf rod with some leftover fresh raw octopus tonight. We'll see if the big critters are hungry!

Dinner from last night.

Well, no takers on the octopus. Tried for a little over 2 hours. I did however get some practice with the new 12 footer. What a beast!

I think sometimes there is a dead zone in the surf.The fish seem to be in close or out far not much in between

Yeah I've been seeing the reports of huge sfc's down your way. Better get to fishin' soon because the MPLA won their battle to shut down fishing along quite a bit of our shoreline.

Judge rejects lawsuit against MPAs
6:51 pm, Oct 19th, 2011 Kelly Parker Countywide Laguna Beach News Add a Comment
A San Diego Superior Court judge has dismissed a lawsuit that aimed to thwart the implementation of marine protected areas (MPAs) along the California coast, including areas of Laguna Beach waters.

The California League of Conservation Voters on Tuesday cheered Judge Ronald Prager’s decision to reject the suit filed by the United Anglers of Southern California, according to a news release from the league.

The suit was also backed by the Partnership for Sustainable Oceans, a fishing equipment group. Opponents included state conservation groups and the Fish and Game Commission.

“This slam-dunk win for the state and our oceans is the end of the line for the special interests who have burdened taxpayers with lawsuits and delaying tactics and have run a short-sighted campaign of scare tactics instead of looking out for the long-term health of our oceans,” California League of Conservation Voters Chief Executive Officer Warner Chabot said in a statement.


Implementation of the MPAs include regulations adopted last December that ban fishing and, in some cases, prohibit taking plants, animals and other marine life, including shells, from certain coastal areas. The MPAs, which extend from beaches in Santa Barbara County to the U.S./Mexico border, are scheduled to go into effect Jan. 1.

In Laguna, the issue of MPAs has been contested among city officials, residents and local anglers. All but one of the City Council members voted in support of the regulations.

“Commercial lobster fishermen will lose 30% to 40% of their income with the 7-mile closure of Laguna’s coastline,” Councilman Kelly Boyd said in July. “As for recreational fishing, sea mammals eat way more than a fisherman catches, and under the restrictions, a man can’t even take his grandson grunion hunting.”
