Thanks for the report.

Are you fishing at the end?

A friend sent me a note that he's been seeing a lot of mullet jumping in the lagoon near Carlsbad. Wondered about catching them. Here's some info on the hard to catch fish. https://www.pierfishing.com/striped-mullet/

Tony's is one of my favorite restaurants in the area and one I have visited many times.

I haven't been there for about a year. The main pier was open but the second, smaller pier was closed. Much of the area was closed and used by the homeless.

The new Polly's is gone?
