Ended up getting 12 good size Spanish. Tried flylining and some near the bottom. Only caught 1 bonito and only lost 3 to sea lions. Released the rest near the condo, same area I had caught then in.

I usually cut the sabiki and split the pack into two 3 hook rigs. After, I add a swivel to the area where I cut the line this way I have less hooks to deal with while making bait.
