So my future FIL is taking me out on a 1/2 day tomorrow. I'd rather just hit the water on my own in the yak but what're ya gonna do. Not sure which boat we're going out on but any suggestions as to what gear? Only party boats I've been on were up north out of Monterey for rockfish or salmon. I've got some various iron, picked up a few 5oz weights and shrimp fly rigs. Not sure if they've switched over completely to bottom fishing or are still going for surface stuff. How do you fly line on a cattle boat with 40 other people? Seems like a recipe for a tangle. I'm assuming the usual shrimp fly tipped with squid knocked on the bottom would work for the rockfish/lings? Thanks for any tips besides tipping the deckies.
