This week Elliot Dohna from Rancho Penasquitos caught a great 12 ½ pound catfish. He was using mackerel as bait and was fishing near the East end of the log boom. We saw good number of catfish caught this weekend, especially during night fishing Friday and Saturday nights.
Due to new dock construction we have a limited number of boats available so please arrive early if you want a boat. You can call 858-668-4778 to find out if boats are sold out but we cannot reserve boats.
We will be stocking catfish July 7th through August 18th (details below) and we will have night fishing until 11:30 PM (boats in by 11:00 PM) Friday and Saturday nights from July 7th to August 26th. During Night Fishing Half-Day boats start at 4 PM and you must bring a lantern. For night fishing arrive before 9 PM when the concessions closes on Friday and Saturday so that you can purchase your fishing permit.
August 4th 1300 lbs
August 18th 1300 lbs
Catfish stock subject to change.
When you stop by concessions to buy your permit ask about the best spots and baits. They have up to the minute information. Remember concessions closes at 6:00 PM Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday, so come early enough to buy your permit or boat.
