what kind of live bait or lures you use.

you like mackerels ? Thats fish bait over here.

You can do some shore fishing. Generally catch crokers and perches in Huntington Beach by the bolsa chica wetlands.

you can take a night boating trip out of Long Beach Marina I think they leave at like 10 pm and come back around 10 am the next morning.

i like mackerels if they are huge 30 in plus in size.

i miss night fishing since the boat is down. buy it would be nice. i'll try shore fishing if it doesnt work. i'll hire someone to take me out

whfat are the size limits for crokers and perches

Mackerels don't get to 30 inches around socal or norcal or ever lol. But if you want to catch a full bucket load, your best bet is redondo pier, using a sabiki and pieces cuts of squid.

If your looking for coakers(No Tomcod aka"white croakers", spotfins and sargo ok) and keep and eat I would recommend shore fishing around newport - san diego beaches, avoid catching fishes from the harbor if you plan eating them.

Bait use for surf fishing is sand crabs, berkley's 2" sand worms, squid, ghost shirmps and mussels for the bait and wait method. If your the type to use lures I recommend a hard bait lc 110sp in sardine, plastics I would use a 3/4oz lead head w/ about any color big hammer plastic, drop shot I would use 2 1/2" basstrix or a zoom fluke and your choice size of sinker.

That's about everything you need to know to get you started on shore/surf fishing here in socal. Map out the areas you want to fish and google them so you can get an idea how to get there, any else feel free to pm me. GL out there
