Basic questions from a beginner!

Wow, I guess I had my original setup a bit backwards!

So the hook should be relatively close to the line and not dangling a ways off correct?

Hope I can get this dropper loop down! The palomar knot is not too hard to tie, but the dropper looks a bit intimidating. I'll have to practice!

I'm guessing that with the 4" loop on the dropper loop, I should use the palomar knot to tie the hook on with right?

Thanks again for taking the time to help me out! Socal is a great place to live!

I'm really unfamiliar with most types of fish. Off of San Pedro, I caught a bunch of mackerel, few sea bass, and a barracuda. "Bass" always sounds like a tasty meal, but it's a shame we can't eat the fish from the Dana Point Harbor!
