well if you are catching and releasing these fish, i guess I could tell you. there is a spot on the west end of the island. I think it is the west end. I get those confused. well anyways. if you are going straight at it. it is the right side of the island. if you are cruising along that side, you will see a big wall with black, and white stripes on it. it is very noticable. when you get there, you will know that it is the spot that I am talking about. there is some kelp in that area too. yellowtail, calicos, seabass, and there is the sheephead on the bottom. good fishing there.
there is another spot on the other side of the island called the italian gardens. its a very green area. one of the only green areas on that side. great kelp fishing there. yellowtail, calicos and seabass all hang out over there.
sorry i couldn't give you gps coordinats. but when you go to those spots, I am sure that you will recognize what i was talking about.
