I've had success with the smallest size sebikis and tiny baited gold hooks when they won't eat the sabiki hooks. Chumming the smelt up with bread or macks with cat food is key. Lately the south 1/2 of SD bay has been full of giant jack smelt, like 10-12 inches long, that ruin the smal sabikis. I've been using an umbrella net off the docks to avoid the monsters. These nets can work very well depending on water clarity and how the smelt come to the chum. Mike
