It's a long walk out there so bring something with wheels. There were probably 15 rods in the water when I got down there, so plenty of room to fish. Just trying frozen Mackerel on two rods, I pulled up a leopard shark within 25 minutes. It was about 2 feet long. While I was there, two other were reeled up, slightly smaller Grass shrimp, some small crabs and some bullhead were being pulled up on-the-reg with shrimp nets using quartered raw chicken. Tide was very low and outgoing. The pier closes at sundown, but I guess you don't get kicked off until 11. The lanterns were being fired up as we walked off 20 minutes after sundown. The water looks pretty polluted, with plenty of floating trash. But the sunset was pretty. I was surprised to see sea lions so deep in the bay. No running water but portopotties at the end.(didn't even peek into them) Wind is always strong there in the afternoon, but mellowed when the sun set.
