July here was great for the first two weeks, slow for the 3rd week and downright poor for the 4th week. (for Surf bass) The first two weeks was very steady with 6 nights in a row of outstanding fishing with many quality fish. Some nights had 20+ fish per man. Nothing much over 30# but lots of fish in the high 20's. It is downright dead now though. You will see 1000's of small-med bass but you can't catch them...feeding on krill. The only lure that will work is the hand grenade plug. I am sending my reels in for a mid season tuneup in prep for the fall.
Boat guys are doing fair but are having to work for it.
The place to be fishing now is the canyons...I am hearing awesome reports...a lot of boats connecting with Blue Marlin, a few swordfish (at night) , lots of yellows and a few good size Wahoo and large big eyes.
