Has anyone heard of bait in the receivers around Port San Luis? Any bait in the water? I was out there about a month ago and it was pretty dead. I launched off of Avila Beach and powered on down to Shell Beach for just one rockfish on the squid tipped scampi. However, big halibut action can really heat up down there right along the kelp lines, especially when water temps get up to where they are now. That section of the coast receives very little fog (so characteristic of this area) which allows the sun to considerably heat the shallows. Live bait would defenitely help.
