Hi gents- Casted out from shore next to the edge of the Sandpiper Golf course and managed to bring in two small leopard sharks and my buddy caught one too. We were using squid strips with a 2oz weight dropper loop. No luck on the plastics. It was high tide going low with water visibility at clear. Are leopards common to be hanging out close to shore? Just wondering cuz I never seen 3 consectively come out...
Nothing else was biting. Normally a great calico and other bass spot up and down that beach but just ran across the sharks...

Leopards seem pretty common out there. I was out on the yak a couple of weeks ago and a guy caught about a 4 footer from the surf. It was the biggest leopard I'd ever seen. Another Brian

I know ther is a little dirt parking lot next to the freeway just south of the refinery. I think it is called San Onofre. No this is not the San Onofre in Orange County, just incase anyone was wondering. There is a trail leading to the beach there. You could just walk north from there. It is not very far.

Went to check that beach out for flyfishing and the seaweed in the surf was to thick. The real problem I noticed as I spooled up my line to leave I noticed two guys chasing each other and they were naked! I saw some more guys as I ran to my van before anyone recognized it as being parked at a Gay beach. Almost got run over by an Amtrak train doing 60. They are really quiet! Capt.Carl

Um.... What train track are you talking about? Hmmm... There isn't a nude beach that I am aware of... Maybe the planets are aligned in such a way that people feel the need to fish nude?

Sorry to hear about that- you must have made a wrong turn and ended up on the Hershey Highway!

Yeah I have actually heard that is a nude beach down there. Never been down there so I wasn't sure. I was crossing the tracks at Trestles one time with my dive gear on, only to look up and see an Amtrack like 50 yards away. They are indeed very quiet. Ever try and move fast in full dive gear. Not very fun. Another Brian

Guys, you have your site mixed up big time. I grew up in goleta and have spent hundreds, maybe thousands of days at the beach areas from naples to IV and there are no tracks NEXT to the beach anywhere along that run with the possible exception of Driftwood beach but even there it is about 500 yards to the trestles from the beach. The tracks do run parallel to the beaches along there but they are no where to be found near sandpiper, they run along 101. The golf course is on the beach, not the tracks. As for the gay guys, I bet you that you were further up the coast near gaviota, thats where the nudey/gay beaches are. when I was a kid surfing this area, the whole beach scene was nudey, lots of hippy chicks and guys just hanging out au natural, hell, we used to surf naked ourselves. Next time, grab your rod and keep fishing,
