You will probably not make it through the front gate of Seaworld with your fishing gear, but if you do, go BIG. Im talking like 10/0 hooks and wire leader to 200lb spectra....do you have a stand-up fighting rig? Also, you are going to want to get there early so you can grab a splash zone front row seat, you dont want to have to cast over the tourists. :biggrinjester:

Any ball bouncing is likely to result in a tangled mess of eel grass in MB. If you fish near the sea world channel (specifically near the S. Ingraham st. bridge you may find a halibut)
but you will not be alone. From shore you need to enter Ski Beach Boat launch area. Go to the right side of the parking lot, near the bridge.

Swim baits in green work good, I use uni butter as well. If you walk up on the bridge at low tide you can see an overview of the area.
ie. Where the eel grass lies in relation to sandy bottom.

Let me know where you decide to fish so I can throw fireworks in the area.
