It was quite a catch! The U.S. Coast Guard hauled more than 100 pounds of Marijuana from the water off the coast of Imperial Beach early Wednesday morning. 
Coast Guard crew members were acting on a tip from the U.S. Border Patrol that up to four people were in the Pacific Ocean just south of San Diego near the U.S.-Mexico boundary. Authorities sent a HH-60 Jayhawk helicopter and a 41-foot patrol boat, which arrived just before 4 a.m. No people were found, but authorities did find two floating black bags containing 110 pounds of marijuana. The Coast Guard patrol boat stayed at the scene until 6 a.m. searching for people and more drugs. They found nothing. The drugs were turned over to U.S. Customs agents in San Diego.
