Paddies

Don't think that just kelp holds fish-anything floating in the water has the potential to hold fish-boards, logs, balloons, floats,pallats boat hulls etc. can all hold fish if setting in the water long enough and there is bait around. Pelagic fish may be "on" the paddie and circling 1/4 mile away.
If there is a bird on the paddie they almost always have fish underneath.
The paddies off the coast often do hold Yellowtail.
Note the fish counts in todays paper-Lots of dorado in the count all of a sudden-I believe recently pushed north with warm water from the storms off Baja-Sur-
Give them some time to keep coming north 2-3 weeks and I predict the nine-mile bank will hold dodos and hopefully someone will score of La Jolla.
I want to do an off-shore paddle with a group-make bait at the pier and head north/west a few miles then hope on-shore winds push us back-shooting for sometime mid-August-lets see what those paddies hold 8)
