The tip of Seal Rocks is a good fishing spot for yellowtail, white seabass and barracuda. There is an offshore reef covered with kelp midway between Seal Rocks and Church Rock underneath a flashing white navigation light halfway up the East End. It is usually a good spot for white seabass. There is a sharply pointed reef here, which juts eastward into deep water and is covered by a heavy kelp bed. The bottom drops quickly to depths sufficient for a number of varieties of rockfish.
Fishing is best here when there is a strong current running to the east.
Exercise caution as the shoreline is a Navy practice bombing range. Diego's Point Loma Located in the sovereign waters of Mexico but just 16 miles from San Diego's Point Loma, this three island archipelago has provided great fishing for recreational anglers since the 1930s. Yellowtail,tuna and even marlin sometimes can be found here. Yellowtail can also be found on both the lee and the weather sides of the island. Nearby to the southeast, Coronado Medio, the middle island, has a 10-12 foot fathom rocky reef that provides good fishing for yellowtail, as does the lee side of the island.
