I have found the following places to be productive at times:
Dana Point Jetty - surfside...
I fish near the beach tight to the jetty for perch, opaleye, etc..
I fish past the elbow with swimbaits and mogambos for sand bass...
I have seen some asian fellows fishing baits on big bobber and
they were hitting big bass...
Laguna Beach - pocket beaches
North of main beach in Laguna, there are numerous little pocket
beaches accesible via many streets that are perpendicular to the
Pacific Coast Hwy...
You can fish these little rocky headlands between pockets and
catch bass, halibut, even some pretty wrasses...
San Onofre
This is a bit south but it is very productive for perch and
croakers
San Clemente Pier
I have had had some stellar days on yellowfin/spotfin croaker at
this pier...I have caught several short halibut, several large
lobster, small white seabass, calico bass, sand bass, sculpin...
Not in one trip, but different trips, different times...
Just trying to add a bit to your data base...Good luck!

If you ever get the hankering to try a party boat, I'd recommend the Fury out of Dana Wharf Sportfishing. The owner (Rick?) runs a really clean boat. They like to fish bass, too.

I second, or third the Fury suggestion...
Great boat...Great skipper...The company I used to work with chartered the boat and we had a great time...
He knows how to hit tuna in season too...

I mostly Surffish Dana Point for perch and corbina at Salt Creek(or Gravels-just North of Creek) in Dana Point. The main areas to fish (starting from North to South) are Aliso Beach(in Laguna),Salt Creek, Dana Strands, Dana Point Harbor, and Doheney Beach. The fishing can be quite good at these spots...especially for corbina in summer!

Thunnus gave you many good places to start trying. Laguna alone has so many good places that you could spend a lifetime learning it's secrets. I would try to get a tube also, it will open up your horizons like wouldn't believe. I concur with Chuckwagon also. Check out the Fury when summer gets closer and they get back to fishing open-party. Great crew, very clean boat, and very knowledgable(sp?) regulars. Chances are though that any of the Dana boats will produce a good time.

Speaking of tubes... I've been thinking of getting one. Can you tell me where to get a good deal?

Cabela's or Bass Pro Shops are a good place to start looking. Buying depends on sales and/or who has the best price on any given tube. I got my Kennebec for $125 at Sportsmart, that's %30 off. Do you already have one picked out?

I thought of buying a round float tube, but I was wondering whether I should get a U shaped float instead, because I heard they are sturdier and can handle a swell. I'd prefer a round one, because they are cheaper, but I'll shell out the cash if a round tube won't work for fishing around bays.
