I'm sure there are gonna be several posts on how to obtain bait and ways to do it.(Most obvious being finding a Bait Barge
) As for myself, I have never fished that lagoon, but in most cases, whether or not fishing SD areas like LJ or the Bay, or fishing little farther north, area's without a bait barge, get yourself a Sabiki set up or make one like I did out of some PVC and an older Saltwater reel. Sabiki's have several hooks and sizes depending on brands. I've caught bait tanks full without having to put anything on the ends, but you can put a little piece of cut squid, or even better, a little bit of Uni-Butter on the little feathered hooks just kill it. Chumming the area could help as well. Drop it down to the bottom with a torpedo weight, and make a slow retrieval with an occasional jig here and there and you are good to go. Just watch the fingers, hands and arms when you remove bait from hooks, Sabiki's seem to tangle with ease and with the slightest breeze and will snag ya.
Good luck out there.
