Tidelands (San Diego Bay) Report 6/17
 

5 of us launched at 6:30 A.M. Jackie, Bob, Jenwai, Drew, and myself. It was overcast and warm. We paddeled straight out to the main channel just North
of the bridge and began dropshotting with the new penny Gulp shrimp. We all had fish on right away. We made several drifts and picked up some nice spotties. The tide was going slack So we moved to the South side of the bridge and picked up a few more on the dropshot. When the tide started to move again we hit the flat out in front of the amphib base. There was a bunch of flyfishingguys there just whacking the bass. We switched over to 1/4 oz leadheads and caught a bunch of bass. It was almost a fish a cast for a while. Most of them weren't that big, but a lot of fun. I ended up with around 35 bass to about 2 lbs and a 12" yellowfin croaker. We were off the water by 11:00 A.M. It was still overcast when we landed. The water temp on the flat was 76 degrees! It felt like a swimming pool. No pics today. My batteries were dead in my camera.:mad:
It wasn't wide open today, but it was still a good bite! What's not to like about San Diego Bay?

Hey Robert,

Thought I'd add a couple pic's to your thread.

Here's one of you with a nice spotty.

Don't know what class of ship this is but it sure looks like it could kick some...

Robert & Beachem,

Sonds like the place to be :thumbup SD bay is one of my favorite places to fish. Where the fly fishing guys were, do you know about what's the water depth there? Using a flyrod there sounds fun. TC&TL,

Perry,

The fly guys were fishing the flats by the amphib. base. I think it was less than 10’ deep where these guys were doing most of their catching.

Perry,
The depth was running from 6-9ft. Every time I turned around they were hooked up. Most of them were in those Seaforth rental skiffs two to a boat.
