Grabbed one of the last Groupon deals for Pierpoint Landing and fished a 1/2 day trip recently. Great weather, spotted several customers carrying yellowtail in bags out from the AM trip as the PM folks lined up to board.
The captain took us just off the Palos Verdes area, a spot I haven't fished before. On other trips, the focus was on rockfish, but today they decided to focus on bass. The boat landed a ton of enormous bass out of the kelp on anchovies, plus a bunch of barracuda as well. I only caught a few fish, but didn't catch a skunk at least! Missed a bunch of fish on the anchovies, caught one cuda, and several whitefish. Also saw one bonito and one very large sheepshead get landed. All in all a fun trip, helpful crew, not too many anglers, and fairly calm waters.
Enjoy the video!
