Central Ca Rockfish Opener Apr 1st
First post on this page. Hello all. Question: Has anyone been up to Patriot Sportfishing in Avila Beach in recent years? Looking to go up for the rockfish opener and I am trying to get an idea what the vibe is like on their boats. I have been primarily a Southern California/Baja guy all my life and am completely at home on the boats from Santa Barbara to Cabo. Is there anything different that I should plan for? I plan on taking simple shallow water rockfish stuff (a couple #30 +/- outfits and some iron, swim baits, hooks and sinkers 8oz-160z) and confident anticipation of good rockfish and lings.
