Lumpies at Redondo

Post by Scubie Doo »

Does anyone have an update on Lumpies at Redondo? As I mentioned in a previous post, they seem to be sparse this year. Thanks.

They ARE sparse this year. Seen many lumpie shots from Bob? I have not found a single one, and only 1 snailfish.
The hatch last spring was huge. I though the shallows this year would be crawling with them, whole schools of lumpies on the march. Hasn't happened and getting kind of late in the season for them.

Definitely late in the season for them ... if you're lucky you'll find a random adult down deep, but unlikely to find them in the shallows anymore till October or so (if then). This past winter I only found a few ... the whole season long I found roughly what I was used to finding on an average dive in winters past ...
