Just got me a Hobie

[Daltontribe]

Ok, so i finally joined the Hobie Club, with an Outback. I need to outfit it for the ocean, But what accessories do i need for fishing. What are the essentials for fishing in southern California offshore, and lakes. In the past I've only really fished swimbaits, and have not fished live bait. Am i missing out?

When your done with all safety...

Really figuring out your target species is key. Where you going to fish? I fish la Jolla and north county sd mainly targeting yellowtail, wsb, hali's so for me buying all kinda of plastics and bass equipment isn't necessary. Keep it simple and spend more on quality equipment just like that hobie... You will not regret that buy.
