#14739, "RE: Santa Barbara Harbor" In response to In response to 2
Dredging is removing the sand that builds up inside the harbor. There used to be a nice sandbar on the inside of the sandspit near the end which is gone now.
I've fished the outside edge of the sandspit many times but have never done well there. Lots of people fish the end of the breakwall and seem to do pretty well for perch there.
