Second time out.

[incxalx]

Today was my second time out. And boy, i'm sore. I fished HH for nothing, nada, zip. The guys at OXE hooked me up with a FF(Lowrance mark-4), but i'm hard a pretty hard time decoding what its telling me. I used Big hammer 3inch swimbaits as my bait. What can i be doing to get on the fish?

Thanks guys

Use scent on your swim baits, try different colors.

Rockfish season opens very soon. Send down frozen squid and anchovies were the lobster buoys are and you will catch fish.

At HH you should try fishing the jetties at the opening of the harbor, I tried it once with strips of squid and got a fat sand bass within like 30 seconds. Just called it a day after that since we were heading in from a 5 hour boat trip. Anyways its worth a shot.

I don't think kayaks and paddle boarders are allowed past the PCH bridge.

All good advice here. Fred Hall Long Beach is coming up soon. The seminars alone are worth the admission.

Keep fishing x2 and find people to fish with that are more experienced and are wiling to give on the water advice. I'm an ok angler at best. When I bring someone new out on the water and share advice it helps the learning curve progress faster.

I fished HH yesterday before work and not even a nibble. Rain can really shut it down, water was stained. I use the fish finder to stay on the ledges and edges of the grass. I look for the bait more on the surface than on the meter in the harbor.

Some great advise on here, keep switching colors slow speed, increase speed of bait, add some scents some great ones out there.

Fish with anglers that are more experienced then you at your target species never hurts. I learned more today then I can remember, plus a first for me a skunk but still too home fish. Gracias Team Sewer.

Like Iceman said, rain/storms can make things tough. If it's murky in the harbor and close to shore and you can't get out to clear water, try fishing close to any rocks/jettys. There's always fish hanging out there. Keep on fishing.
