We were told May is the start of fishing season in San Diego. We had fun but it might be better fishing in the next few months…

It was our first time fishing in Avalon and would definitely recommend it. We limited out on tuna and also caught a nice California Sheephead

Considering that the fish are less active when the water is colder, we had a great time and had no trouble finding fish. Take a jacket to be sure you're not cold.

Summer might be the best time, since season is open for rockfish. And you can also target halibut, sheephead and bigger game fish. But even in winter (February) you can get lots of action fishing for sculpin, bass, and white fish.

It’s an off season trip, keep that in mind, but a day on The water is better than a day in land any day.

Check the weather before you go out and pick a time where the water is warmer, this will ensure you catch the types of fish you're looking for.

Fishing can be hit and miss. Usually good fishing with a good captain, boat and waters. Have enjoyed good fishing for sculpin, red fish, and bass. Great harbor just larger to exit than others.

I think early morning fishing is the best. I suggest at least half a day. The sea was very calm, hardly any waves and easy to catch the fishes. If you go deeper into the sea, you should be able to catch much larger fishes.
