San Diego fishing ideas?

My wife, daughter and her friend and I will be visiting in the San Diego area at the end of May, and while fishing isn't our main agenda, we may want to try some shore fishing or maybe a 1/2 day charter trip. There is a Groupon right now for $32 for a half day charter out of Fisherman's Landing in SD, but I don't know if it's worth it or not. Any ideas or suggestions would be welcome. Thanks!

This is a little off your topic, but when you get to San Diego and if you like Mexican food make it a point to go into Old Town. A place called Coyote Cafe....unbelievable authentic Mexican Food. Wish they delivered....great city.

For that price, I would do it. If nothing else you get out on the water for half a day. And you get to fish.

I was out in the SD LA area just last August. Did a half day charter out of the Anehiem area (forgetting the name right now). They can get crowded depending on the day and time. Also I would check and see what type of fish is biting at the time of the year you are going out. That changes too. Sometimes they target different species or go out farther in the morning vs the afternoon half days. We didn't catch anything big. They were targeting rock fish and sand dabs (mini flounders) when we went out. All pretty small fish. We did see dolphins and some seals on the way out and back. Some close to the boat. Oh and if you get sea sick like I do when I lose sight of the shore bring plenty of dramamine or you won't be able to get back to shore soon enough!!

If you want to see seals and sea lions, drive up to the cove in La Jolla, like 15 minutes from downtown SD. Tons of them, and pelicans too. And some cormorants, for those who miss them.

You can get within a relatively close distance to the seals and sea lions. Don't get too close, however.

As for fishing there are a bunch of piers that you can fish off.

Here is a link. Reports are not up to date, but there is a give away paper.

And the headboats going for rockfish seem to be doing well

LOCAL ROCKFISH EXCELLENT

Posted On March 29, 2013

By: Terrence Berg

The rockfish bite all along the coast -- from the Channel Islands to San Diego -- has been very good. Most anglers are getting from five to seven rockfish on half-day trips and near-limits or limits on three-quarter-day or full-day trips. The run-up to the full moon March 27 was very good, thanks to the very good tides this past week. A couple of examples: Victory out of Pierpoint Landing was on a three-quarter-day trip March 25 with 23 anglers, and they landed 171 rockfish, 69 bocaccio, 19 sculpin, five whitefish and five sheephead. Southern Cal, also out of Pierpoint, was out on a half-day trip March 25 with 19 anglers, and they landed 146 rockfish and 44 bocaccio. New Del Mar out of Marina del Rey Sportfishing had a pair of half-day trips on March 25, and the 64 anglers had 445 rockfish. On March 24, the 120 anglers on the two half-day trips had 1,065 rockfish.

    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
