Went down to north Laguna for a little tubing at a new spot for me. Surf was there but I had a sheilded launch. Boilers didn't fire so I went out deeper to 25-30ish. Got 2 legal calicos, 1 legal sandy, 1 short 'but and 1 short calico in 2 1/2 hours fishing. 4 and 5 inch big hammers in the new rock crab and calico hunter w/ red flake worked well. All bit on the intitial drop or drop portion of the crank-and-drop retrieve. Fished 9-11:30, during that time I was visited by a pack of young pup seals--they're so curious. Also saw a huge pod of dolphins at El Moro only about 30 yds. off the beach. All fish released.
