Jalama Beach County Park Fishing Report





OFFSHORE – Good afternoon anglers. We got off the dock with 24 anglers. With the extremely scratchy fishing at the islands we headed up the coast to check out something different. Our morning started out decently steady on Reds on Coppers. We looked at a few different areas and found relatively similar fishing on each one. Unfortunately around noon our fishing came to a halt and it was very difficult to get a bite the rest of the day. Our anglers did a great job and stuck with it and fished every spot until we headed for home. Our 24 anglers managed to capture 154 Reds, 39 Coppers, 10 misc. Rockfish and 1 Lingcod. The Coral Sea still needs some people to make it tomorrow on a 1/2 Day trip while the Stardust is a for sure go 3/4 Day fishing with a light load and beautiful weather. Please call Sea Landing at 805-963-3564 for a reservation or visit our website to book online.

Jalama Beach County Park Fishing Report





OFFSHORE – Hello anglers, we are still underway for the dock with our 23 anglers relaxing and enjoying some food while the crew finishes processing our days catch and cleaning up the boat. We finally got a small break in the weather and decided to head to the islands to see how things were. We dealt with a few challenges throughout the day with a big swell and strong current at times. We were fortunate enough to stub our toe on a couple stones that gave us the majority of what we have on board. Every other spot however would give us 4-10 fish and some would yield nothing. Our group stuck with it all day and in the end everyone has some really good quality fish to take home. After many stops and a lot of winding our 23 anglers ended the day with 46 Reds, 127 Coppers, 11 misc. Rockfish, 7 Whitefish, 1 Sheephead (Sheepshead, California) and 13 Lingcod.

OFFSHORE – Boats have been dockside due to some recent weather however the latest reports when anglers are able to hit the was have been productive. We are heading in with flat calm weather as the crew processes the day’s catch after a nice day of fishing at Santa Rosa island today. We spent our morning in the shallower water and had decently steady action on the Whitefish for about an hour until the current changed. The rest of our day we spent searching in the deeper water for the Reds and Copper Rockfish. Although fishing was scratchy our 24 anglers did a great job and stuck with it until we kicked it for home. Our 24 anglers ended the day with 41 Reds, 107 Copper Rockfish, 68 misc. Rockfish, 121 Whitefish, 2 Lingcod and 1 Sheephead.

INSHORE – Hello everyone, Corey here with your stardust 3/4 day report. We stayed along the coast today with a windy forecast at the islands. We headed straight to the deeper water and found decent fishing right off the bat. We caught lots of Reds and some mixed Rockfish off each spot. Our fishing around 11am really picked up and we put on a ton of extremely nice quality reds and filled everyone’s limit with them to end the day. Overall it was a great day of fishing with beautiful weather and our passengers are stoked to be heading home a little early with excellent bags of fish. For our 12 anglers we got 100 Reds and 20 assorted Rockfish. The stardust still has some room for tomorrow’s 3/4 day trip.

INSHORE – Good afternoon folks.. We are still on our way in with our 21 anglers on board enjoying some food and the beautiful weather. We had a trying morning in between the islands today with very little mark on everything we drove over. After covering some area I opted to move up the island and we were able to find some stones that were ready to bite. Some areas were fast paced action while others were a slow pick on mixed Rockfish with Reds, Coppers, Bocaccio and Yellowtail Rockfish making there way into the bags. We spent the last bit of time we had looking for Whitefish and were only able to get a few. When we set course for home our 21 anglers ended up with 73 Reds, 45 Coppers, 92 mixed Rockfish, 6 Whitefish and 10 Lingcod.

We fished mostly in the deeper water range and caught very nice Reds and Chucks in the morning. We jumped around a lot through the mid day in search of biting fish but only found a few spots willing to participate. Our later afternoon fishing was decent with one spot that kicked out over 50 fish of various species, all very nice quality. In the end for our 29 anglers we caught 80 Reds, 130 Chucklehead and 30 Misc. Rockfish and 10 Lingcod.

INSHORE – Rock Bass, Calicos and Sand Bass (Bass, Striped & Bass, Spotted Sand & Bass, Calico) are still biting despite the muddy water. Search the kelp beds to find them. Generally Sardine or Anchovy are your best bet to hook them. Swim baits are a great artificial alternative. Halibut (Halibut, Pacific) have been caught from the surf however the boat bite is slow. We hope to see the rain clear up and the bite improve for the coming week.

OFFSHORE – Good afternoon anglers, here is your 3/4 day report. We decided to switch it up and fished the deeper water today. We found decent fishing in the morning on the Rockfish (Rockfish, Vermillion & Rockfish, Copper & Rockfish, Olive & Rockfish, Brown & Rockfish, Blue) as well as Lingcod. We had a few good stops right off the bat but our fishing came to a slow mid morning. We did some looking around for awhile trying a variety of depths but didn’t find much until the later afternoon when we got into some good Chucklehead and Reds along with some good Lingcod fishing. The live bait and Squid Strips worked best but we also had some fish caught on the jigs. Our count for today with our 25 passengers is 30 Reds, 53 Coppers and 80 Assorted rockfish with 57 Lingcod. We are full for tomorrow’s 1/2 day trip but both boats return to straight 3/4 day trips after Christmas. Feel free to book your spots online or call the Sealanding at 805-963-3564.

We started our day Lingcod fishing and it was pretty darn steady on the live Sardine with one angler doing well on the plastic. After we had what we needed on Lingcod we switched gears to look for Rockfish and although most areas were slow we managed to find a couple stones that wanted to bite with nice Reds, Coppers and a few Grouper. Everyone on board did a great job taking advantage of our opportunities today. Our 15 anglers ended the day with 38 Reds (Rockfish, Vermillion), 64 Coppers (Rockfish, Copper), 36 misc.

OFFSHORE – Good afternoon folks we are heading in here with only 15 anglers on board today. Absolutely gorgeous weather today and pretty good fishing overall. We had no current to speak of most of the morning making some of our drifts short lived however everything we stopped on today kicked out some very nice quality fish. Our morning was focused on Lingcod and the afternoon we fished some shallower areas for copper Rockfish and misc other fishes as well. The live sardines were the ticket for the Lingcod and a few anglers caught some larger models on the jigs as well. Our 15 anglers ended the day with 116 Copper Rockfish, 28 misc. Rockfish, 3 Sheephead, 4 whitefish and 45 Lingcod. (Rockfish, Copper & Rockfish, Vermillion & Rockfish, Starry & Rockfish, Brown & Rockfish, Black & Rockfish, Olive & Lingcod)(Sheepshead, California) On the Coral Sea we’re headed in from our half day trip now and the crew is hard at work processing today’s catch and cooking burgers. We had steady fishing today, catching lots of rockfish and a few other mixed species. Our 10 anglers had a blast with fairly fast fishing in some spots. We caught a decent amount of reds and chuckles and brown rockfish along with lots of olives as well. We fished a wide area of spots but found bitting fish in nearly every zone. For our 10 passengers we ended up with limits of Rockfish, 3 Sheepshead, 2 Ocean Whitefish and 1 Lingcod. The Stardust is heading back out 3/4 Day fishing Friday with a light load again, you can book reservations online or just show up!! We are 3/4 day fishing Saturday and Sunday with lots of room.

OFFSHORE – Good afternoon folks we are making our way across the channel after a beautiful day over at Santa Rosa Island with 30 anglers on board. Lots of current today for us making it hard to target smaller stones like we usually do. Fishing the larger areas of hard bottom we were able to pick away at Rockfish and had decently steady Lingcod fishing most of the day. A lot of Mackerel have showed up making fishing Squid strips almost impossible for most of the day. Those coming out in the near future please make sure you have plenty of monofilament top shot (30 yards) on top of your spectra as we saw many bites missed today.

INSHORE – Good afternoon folks we are making our way back to the dock after a nice day of beautiful weather up the beach today with our very light group of 14 anglers. We started our day fishing the deeps again and had very slow fishing for most of the morning so we made a move up the line about 4 miles where we were able to keep a steady pick going on Reds a few Coppers and a few other tasty varieties of Rockfish. Although a few people succumbed to seasickness they still participated and for that I am very thankful for. In the end our 14 anglers put it together catching 96 Reds and 44 misc.

Very good quality however helped keep the gang at the rail throughout the day. A big thanks to everyone on board today for sticking at the rail and fishing hard despite the tangles choppy conditions. One thing that was noticeable today was that the artificials were not producing nearly as well as bait. Those that switched to bait did much better.

We drove up here and just annihilated the Reds (Rockfish, Vermillion) and the Rockfish (Rockfish, Copper & Rockfish, Black & Rockfish, Olive & Rockfish, Brown & Rockfish, Blue), we got a few handfuls of giant Chucks as well. Best bait today hands-down was a Squid strip on each of your hooks and a 12 ounce sinker we caught all of our fish on Bait today. We had great weather at the coast & really good fishing. On the Coral Sea we had lots of Olive Rockfish today with a few nice Reds & Browns thrown in as well.

OFFSHORE – Hello anglers we are making our way back from the Island today with a nice overall day of fishing. With our 32 passengers sticking at the rail all day despite breezy and bumpy conditions we we fished both the deeper water anywhere from 260-280 and even worked our way into the shallows 100-130 feet as well. We had to work for it today and at times had steady fishing on medium size Coppers some nice Reds and decent Lingcod fishing as well. With the fishing being a little challenging today the guys using monofilament with a couple longer dropper loops seemed to produce much better than those choosing to fish straight braid with a short top shot. Either Anchovy or a couple nice Squid strips did the trick today. A big thanks to our group today for staying positive as our 32 anglers are taking home 64 Reds (Rockfish, Vermillion), 187 Coppers (Rockfish, Copper), 45 assorted rockfish (Bocaccio & Rockfish, Black & Rockfish, Blue & Rockfish, Brown) & Rockfish, Gopher), 1 Cabezon and 35 Lingcod.

INSHORE – Anglers can begin to watch for Halibut, Pacific on the sandy side of the pier now that the water is warming up even more. The Lucky Crab 110 Flash Minnows in anchovy, aurora calico or anchovy venus are working well. This setup on a Carolina rig bounced off the bottom has produced some great fish from the pier. The bite is hot using this and has been consistent so far.

OFFSHORE – There are quite a few Sea Bass, White and Yellowtail in the area that has not left this year. The water did not get cold enough for fish to leave so they are nice and big at this point. The Lings (Lingcod) will be turning on soon so anglers will pull out the big plastics for those. 9-10 inch swim baits and sea slugs rigged with stingers do an excellent job at catching them.

INSHORE – This week we are beginning to see the slow start of a Spring fishing pattern. Bass, Calico have been extremely spotty however there have been a few reports of some small sizes turning up. Remembering especially as they are scattered that live bait will be the most productive. Among them in the kelp beds and rocky areas are some Opaleye. Generally they are not a target for recreational anglers but are an important fish for commercial boaters. They are commonly found in shallow waters feeding on algae and smaller bait such as worms. There have also been reports of Halfmoon, another form of Sea Chub which can usually be found in the same areas. If you can get on a good bite it may measure up to 20 inches. They are generally not regarded as great game fish however they are considered good eating by most. The Yellowtail bite has slowed down significantly. We are hardly getting any reports from this area. We are excited to see the fish changing into their Spring patterns, slowly but surely.

Jalama Beach County Park Fishing Report



INSHORE – We are seeing lots of three quarter day trips this week and they have been fairly productive so far. The early morning bite has produced tons of Lingcod in the triple digits. They are turning up in great sizes as well. Various Rockfish (Rockfish, Vermillion & Rockfish, Greenspotted, & Rockfish, Starry & Rockfish, Brown & Rockfish, Black) have also been caught in great numbers as well. They are coming off the bottom and usually are found swimming above structure.

Jalama Beach County Park Fishing Report



INSHORE – Now that Rockfish are closed a lot of anglers have decided to stay inside and plan for next year. There aren’t a lot of people fishing from shore either however those who are can target Bass, Calico and Halibut, Pacific at this time. Halibut will be pretty deep for this time of year and they generally will bite live bait. The Calico are hitting swim baits or live anchovies. They can be found along the coast and around the islands 4-5 miles from shore. Look for kelp and structure to find the best sizes. The Crab situation has not improved at this point however we will keep you updated when things improve.

Jalama Beach County Park Fishing Report



INSHORE – Unfortunately we have seen a rise in the acidity levels of the Dungeness Crab in the area this week. This is generally the main focus of most anglers during this time of the year. There is not a whole lot of action otherwise however there are some Surfperch, Barred that can be hooked on bloodworms, lugworms or berkley power grubs throughout the beach areas. They generally stick to deeper holes in sandy bottoms where there is a lack of tide. We hope to see the Crabbing season open soon however with the recent results this is not promising.

Jalama Beach County Park Fishing Report



INSHORE – Although Rockfish are closed to boats and maneuvering vessels, there’s some opportunities for shore anglers. The piers and surf are still allowing Rockfishing from land and anglers are reeling in quite a few (Rockfish, Brown, Rockfish, Olive & Rockfish, Black). There’s Bass, Calico and Bass, Barred Sand still around and most people that are looking for them from the same locations. 3-4 inch big hammer plastics in Christmas Tree or Red Rum or anything that has red to match the crabs that are everywhere. Some anglers are hooking Halibut, Pacific and Surfperch, Barred using lucky crabs. Look forward to February and Hook, Line & Sinker’s Winter specials!!

OFFSHORE – There are still plenty of Rockfish (Rockfish, Starry & Rockfish, Vermillion & Rockfish Bocaccio & Rockfish, Copper) in great numbers this week. There are also solid catches of Lingcod coming in over 100 per trip. Most of the best sizes are being caught out by the islands where it has been hard to keep the hook in the water. This has been the main focus for anglers so far this week.

OFFSHORE – Anglers were easily catching limits of Red Rockfish (Rockfish, Starry & Rockfish, Vermillion) as well as other assorted species of Rockfish (Rockfish, Bocaccio & Rockfish Copper). They are mostly the focus this week as there is not a whole lot of other fishing at this point. The Lingcod bite has drastically dropped off and they have become increasingly spotty this week. Algers are having a hard time fishing up the coast due to windy conditions at the Islands.

Jalama Beach County Park Fishing Report



INSHORE – Although it is still pretty windy we have had some anglers make it out this week. Reports of Rockfish, Vermillion and Rockfish, Starry are coming from the coast. The Lingcod bite has cooled down this week and they have been a lot more difficult to catch so far. We hope weather conditions will lie down for the weekend so anyone get get on the water. There have been no sign of Bass, Calico, Mackerel or Mackerel, Pacific showing up yet this week but we won’t be surprised if they start biting later in the week.

OFFSHORE – Wind has shut just about everything down. It has been too strong for any anglers to get out this week. It is just slightly beginning to clear up however the swells and conditions will likely not have the water ready for the weekend even if the weather is nice. The beaches and piers are pretty torn up so far this week. There has been some Rockfish (Rockfish, Vermillion & Lingcod) showing up in the area along with Bass, Calico, Mackerel, Pacific and Surfperch, Barred that are expected to swim after the conditions become more favorable. It’s not easy to tell when that will be. Anglers who head out over the weekend can always consult our Tips feature which provides additional information and suggestions to help improve the catch.

The beach will fire up once the weather drops a little more.
