I took the Long Beach Sportfishing halfday boat today and have to say that the fishing was fantastic. I used some surfleaders that have the loops for two leaders and a weight at the bottom and that seemed to work great. People who only had one hook just didn't seem to catch as much. I was bringing in two at a time. They dont fight much, but they taste good. The bait that seemed to work best was squid cut into 2 in strips. I caught 13 snappers and came home with about 5 lb of fillets. [] My dad who was with me, and was using the same type of rig, caught about the same amount as me. We also caught 5 whitefish between the two of us. Id have to say that at least 65 snappers and 20 whitefish were brought on board.
