Izor+Horseshoe Help

[James Keller]

Hey all, been wanting to get out to the island this coming weekend. But due to the coming weather I'm going to stay inshore. Thinking about fishing Izor or the Horseshoe. Never fished there before and was I'm wanting to be as prepared as possible. If you have any tips they would be very appreciated!

Don't try to anchor at izors unless you want to lose your anchor. Other than that it's mostly bass and maybe some sculpin/rockfish. Good luck

Snipers and plastics.
Anchoring at Izors is tricky.
Drift.

Any thoughts on live squid vs dines?

Look for structure with fish stacked up on it. Once you find them, drop jigs or plastics on them. I’m partial to my 4” plastics (Kman Specials) with 1, 1.5 and 2 oz heads on them depending on depth and wind.

Here is a video I made a while back showing our technique. Good luck.

Check Windy.com & find something else to do. Mother Nature is giving us a SMACKDOWN. Water, sky, water, sky, water, sky............ Good Luck

Sardines for Halibut. Squid for everything else.
Always good to have a few small mackerel in the tank

Glad to see a lot of sand bass in the izors again.

You will probably lose lots of lures at Izors-nasty bottom !!!

fished Izors yesterday with one friend and we pulled in over 50 bass in 2 hours on the same spot. Never moved. Mostly Calico with a few sand bass mixed in and a 14 inch sculpin. Weather was beautiful but the sea was angry. Extremely choppy with decent swells. Birds and boils everywhere and dolphin came through hunting. Anchoring isn't a problem if you know where to do it.
