Six Different Species At Cabrillo Beach Pier

[Fishman Fishman]

Good steady fish bite this morning at Cabrillo Beach pier. Caught Pacific and Spanish mackerel on squid, shrimp, anchovy, mackerel and metal jig. Caught Shiner perch, Queenfish, Topsmelt and a surprise, 7 inch, Bocaccio.

Shiner perch on shrimp, Queenfish, Topsmelt and Bocaccio on sabiki.

Tried Shiner perch, Topsmelt and Queenfish as live bait, no hits.

Wind got pretty strong around 11:30 a.m.

Good luck!

Interesting variety at a pier I need to revisit.

I kept changing out rigs and was rewarded with fish. Used hi/lo, then switched to small hook sabiki tipped with shrimp, then switched to sardine colored jig, and finally to larger sabiki with green feathers! 😀
