What rig are you guys using? I hab bad luck. I been using 3" weedless swimbaits bright colored all I get is tailbites I cant hook the fish. I bought some gulp shrimps today..gonna try them out on friday. Any other places near long beach to fish at? I only go to alamitos bay and Newport harbor. Im in Lakewood so I rather stay closer like alamitos I hate morning traffic. Also any input on this fish finder for the kayak? http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004FKP1XM/..._Wx3qtb14K17XM

I was out there last weekend ... same spot. Water conditions were not even close to yours, it was a bit choppy. Great video! I cant wait to get out soon.

The rig I use is the simplest rig there is. Just a double dropper loop with two 6/0 hooks with whole squid and 6oz weight. But I think you're talking more about bass fishing than what I'm doing which is deep water fishing, I'm fishing in 170-210 ft of water. That FF on amazon you're looking at is the same exact one I have, it works pretty well for my needs.
