Thanks for the tips Quietman. I'll give the Storm curly tails and Smelly Jelly a try. I'll also venture along that jetty that you mentioned in search of my first legal halibut.

I went out today around the bait barge and it was pretty slow, although I hear it was pretty good earlier in the morning. I fished from 10 to noon and only caught 4 pacific mackerel, a croaker and a jack smelt.

Thanks again,

Kanaka
