Helpful Hints For A More Successful Los Angeles Sport Fishing Trip

--When in doubt about anything ask for help from one of the crew members. They are there to help you with everything from tying on the right hook and weight to showing you how to choose the best live bait. They do this for their living and have a huge amount of timely knowledge.

--Use the lightest line possible for the most bites and action. Standard line size is 15 pound test or 20 pound test, anything heavier should be reserved for only when there are huge gamefish present. If you rent your rod and reel ask what pound test it has. If heavier than 20 pound test, ask if they have a lighter option or buy fresh lighter line and have the office staff put it on or have a crew member and you are all set.

--Use only the liveliest of baits. Handle with care and try to hook the bait with the least amount of damage to the bait fish. Either in the tip of the nose from a side to side angle or in the flesh just past the gill plate on one side. Definitely ask a crew member if in doubt. Also use each bait just once or maybe twice at most, then grab a new one.

--Make sure your drag is set and working. You will hook big fish and they will pull line from your reel, if they can’t pull the line it will break without a doubt. So check your drag before you start fishing or ask a crew member. Don’t let that big one or even medium sized one get away.

--Watch what others are doing to catch fish, how they have their hook and weight tied, what bait they are using, where they are casting, etc and if you are not catching fish copy their technique. Once again a crew member can help with shedding light on what is being used and done to catch fish.
