Tanner and Cortes banks — Even the remote sensing (satellite) info was scratchy for the persistent cloud cover but it appeared surface temps were in the high 50s. That’s about all we know.

Inner pelagic waters — No high expectations here, but perhaps the bonito bite off of La Jolla counts and that seemed to hang in there.

Outer pelagic waters — No word, but it seems the surface waters southwest of San Clemente held in the low 60s. It would be surprising if anglers were missing out by not having tested these waters recently.

Coronado Islands region, 3/4- full-day range — Rockfish, lingcod, sheephead and whitefish was the word

Southern coastal 1.5- 2.5-day range — It’s a pretty sure bet the bottom biters are biting but the yo-yo yellows remained a question mark.
