I had the reverse situation. I was born and raised here in San Diego and spent a year on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. Like you're finding out, man what a difference. And I never did figure out the east coaster fascination with spinning reels. Any way, we do a lot o fly lining around SD in the summer. Fly lining is basically letting a live bait swim with a hook in it. No weight and fished with the reel in free spool. Yep, market squid are the small ones we catch around here. As for buck tails, we just use em much out here. I'm sure they'd work and many of our local species though. I you need some you might have make a purchase on line. West coast irons are different than east coast ones. Our heavy irons are similar but I don't think they ever use surface irons. I showed a tady 45 to some serious anglers in NC and they had never seen a aluminum iron before or heard of west coast surface iron fishing. You'll figure it out and, it seamed to me at least, that west coast fishing styles are simpler and more straight forward than some of the stuff I saw back east. Mike
