Izor's Reef sits off Santa Monica, California, at 33.6350, -118.0650, where rocky bottom structure holds fish across a depth range of 90 to 110 feet. California Sheephead peak from April through September and respond to bottom fishing with live shrimp, squid, cut mackerel, or crab, while dropper loop rigs and jigging work the same reef. Barred Sand Bass move through from March and again June through August, taken on drift fishing with live anchovies, live sardines, or plastic swimbaits, and Calico Bass come on strong April through August, best worked with plastics such as swimbaits and soft plastic grubs. Sculpin fill in June through September on dropper loops baited with squid, anchovy, or mackerel strips, and California Halibut hold from March through July for drifters running live anchovies, sardines, or smelt. As the season turns, Lingcod take over September through February, with vertical jigging using metal jigs and leadhead jigs with swimbaits over the deeper rock.
