I went out on 10/31 and got one dink and one about 14-15", both on dropshot.
I went out again today with a buddy and we were catching dinks (6-8") all day long with the dropshot. We got about 3 that I would call keepers, but 2 of those were on the small side of things, too. One was caught on a crank while the dropshot was definately the rig that got the most results. It was good today and not as windy as I thought it would be. It was warmer and windier in Santa Maria than it was over the hill.
