Hello. I saw this video and I am not sure what type of fish these could be. Video isn't great quality but the fish seem pretty big (for inshore) and fast chasing down the lure. EDIT: I'm pretty certain this is in San Diego. Let's see your thoughts. :D

Hello Everyone. Stupid question: I'd like to buy some surf spoons to try and use mainly for surf fishing. Is there an ideal weight for spoons in the surf? (Fishing will be SoCal - LA & SD.) The spoon I'm looking at comes in 4 weights with sizes ranging from 2" to 2.75". 1/4 oz 3/8 oz 1/2...

I went to OB Pier with my girlfriend today from morning 11AM through 5PM (more or less). Fishing was overall slow. My girlfriend caught a jack mackerel on a sabiki. I saw someone had caught a sand bass of some sort.

Fished at Seal Beach from afternoon (3/4 PM) to a bit after sunset. There were a lot more anglers than what I normally see. The fishing action was a bit slow throughout the day. Once the waves started picking up (around sunset) mackerel were being caught here and there. I managed to only catch...

Hi Everyone. I went to 72nd Jetty in Long Beach Saturday 04/03/2021. Long story short it was a skunk day. It was a windy day. I fished close to inshore and in the middle of the jetty. From what I can tell the action was really slow and no one else was catching either. I finally got a chance to...

I'm planning to head out to Manhattan Beach Pier this coming Saturday. Has anyone gone there lately? This is not a pier that I venture to often. Any specific species that tend to inhabit this pier more than others? I'm having difficulties deciding where to fish--surf area, middle, or end. I...

Hello Everyone. Has anyone gone Grunion Running lately? I have not gone in about 10+ years and looking forward doing the run on July 4 (Free Fishing Day!). Where is a good place to go? 10+ years ago I would go to Cherry Beach. Not much action when I went then but still fun. Cheers!

Hello Guys. I'm trying to plan out a fishing trip (surf fishing) this year. I do not have experience fishing outside of SoCal (Santa Monica to Newport Area). Any suggestions on place and time (month wise)? I'm considering visiting Guadalupe Sand Dunes as that seems to be a popular spot...

Hello Everyone. I always had this question in the back of my mind and wanted to see your feedback. Why is the Lucky Craft Flash Minnow 110 so popular for surf fishing? Is it the size? Or swimming action? or diving depth (1-2 ft)? This year I starting out surf fishing and I managed to get a...

Hello. I'm planning on going out surf fishing this weekend. In anticipation of crowds and limited parking spacing due to labor day weekend any recommendations on where to go? I can go anywhere between Ventura County and Orange County. I fish normally with jerkbaits. Thanks.
