Looking at the great water quality lately, and abundance of beautiful no-game fish, some must be out there. Two weeks ago I shot a 4.6 lb sheepshead and did not realize that is was recently deemed protected. Sure, I brought it home, cleaned it, and it made exceptional tacos. Poor dumb bastard. That will teach me to keep up on current regs- to the minute this time. When I realized what I had done I was very bummed.... not because I have total confidence in the CDFG, but because I don't need it to survive. If they say so I'll abide. I'm going up to nor cal for christmas/new years to repent for my mistake. Maybe a GWS will render instant karma.
People say hunting here is done in the winter. I do not believe that, but I'll be sure on the regulations next time.
Have any of you So Cal hunters checked the take list lately, it changes month to month. From what I have heard, out at the kelp 45' halibut are feeding. I've been on some kick-out dives to the outer kelp and seen LOTS of fish------when do the elders ride in?
