I don't know the Dana area well but I can throw a few things your way. If I'm fishing near kelp I like to use line heavy enough to not break off in the kelp. 20 will do it usually. Chovies are great baits cause every thing eats them. And chovies are not great baits for larger fish cause every thing eats them. To target yt, wsb, or bigger halibut you're better off catching mackerel for bait. If the bait receiver has bigger sardines they'll work better than chovies. If you're fishing bigger baits for bigger fish ditch the 20 lb n go with 30 or even 40. Mike
