I'm going to be in North Island next week for the entire week and I'm going to do some shore/pier fishing while there. Was wondering if any does any fishing, specially over at a NASNI pier that could share some tips for this spot.

 

im not in SD, but i fish alot between SM and SB both piers and surf. check out scsurffishing(dot)com youll find a bunch of info on that site from a bunch of great guys. do yourself a favor though, and get a pack of Berkeley Gulp Sandworms in Camo or Red. the short one's will save you the trouble of cutting them into 2inch pieces. carolina rig that on a 2 foot leader and you're set for the surf. happy fishing!

*sorry if the info's late, or you're talking about big game fishing

 

I have tried all the one you mentioned and really no luck. The only thing I caught so far is a few Sand Bass and not big enough to brag about it. I think the waters still too cold and the weather lately has been crap. I'm hoping Saturday it will pick up after the weather gets better.

 

dang really? i guess thats just how fishing is. where do you fish? and what are you targeting?

 

Went today (NASNI fishing pier) and it was pretty good...even with the crappy weather. I couldn't handle 2 poles. As I put one down my other one was running. Between me and my budy, we filled my cooler with Sand Bass, Halibut and a 4 lbs Croaker (didn't know they get that big). We are not targeting anything specific other than Halibut. Would like to get something that would give a decent fight but I guess I need to go to deeper waters for that.
