Get a bag of GULP pileworms. Scented, they work as well as live bait and much better than grubs. I use the 'Camo' color because it looks more natural
than "Natural".
BTW, I feel that fishing from shore is more physically demanding than from a boat. So I'm not sure if this is a good solution. I suppose you can
heave it out there and put the rod in a spike but that doesn't work as well. I did, however, meet an old timer at Variety Beach that did just that and
did real well. He'd been coming there for 17 years they said. He used mussels. Gobs of mussels.

Couple of tips,when using squid,fish prefer fresh over fresh frozen 2 to 1 if you can buy it down there just ice it down and it will last two three
days.
Grunion runs never ever miss one of those,learned that one many years ago grunion are a big magnet your very large chum line,day time runs in
the Cortez nite time on Calif beachs,all kinds of critters will show up for those parties,you see one grab your rod,pin one on,no sinker ,don,t worry
about distance they will be close,the pic was taken a few miles south of San Felipe.
When distance was not a issure we used truline jig sticks they were a favorite back then I had two a D8 and a JC,they worked best on the
jetties.
When fishing the big stuff we never sat on our ass sand spike the big rods and work the light rods on the move but within running
distance
Got this guy from the the Seal Bch jetty,won a shark and Ray derby with him
Use squid only on the east side or the triggers will drive you mad!!

Anyone can catch fish in a boat but only \"El Pescador Grande\" can get them from the beach.
I hope when my time comes the old man will let me bring my rod and the water will be warm and clear.

carolina rig or put the weight on the bottom. weedless swimbaits for the calico close to the boiler rocks. |
Blue XRAP 30 hot now in Asuncion for large YT.

Rick, you are talking 'shore fishing', right? Although I most likely will tow a boat. Wouldn't be the same without one back there...
|
I'm in Asuncion and the blue XRAP 30 is the hot item for trolling. I mentioned that because Woody included the XRAP in his list. It is the one that
landed all the Yellowtail in this pic.

I rerigged my D8 with roller guides traded for a old black 6/0 Penn,took it with me on its first outing to the Lupe and later when I was able to
afford a boat,hooked some monsters with it,those were some great years!!!!!!
Still to this day have that JC which I won in a Mud Marlin derby,it was a good jig stick many YT,s and Albies bit the dust because of it
and a 500 with 40

My first boat was a 16' Ryan when I lived in Long Bch and was in it that we started shark fishing,one thing lead to another and I started making my
own chum buckets,they would be full of squid,macks and bonito what ever we could find ended in it,wouldn,t you it one day I forgot to take it out of
the trunk of my car,thiscan just happened to have a good seal on it so I didn,t smell it until it was to late.
It had to be some of the hottest days of the year there was this
explosion we even heard it in the house I go out and open up the trunk and there was the bucket broke open and the stinking goo everywhere,the smell
was about to much
after I did the best I could we had it steamcleaned,it still smelled for days My
wife nearly left me!

to catch sand crabs, i just use a short handled fine mesh fishing net (like 1/4 inch mesh). I walk out about 10 feet past the upper wave limit,
when the wave peters out and starts back, i just drop the net in the water, try and bury it maybe 1/2 inch in the sand (for the bottom of the net)
and as the water retreats and leaves me standing in the sand - there typically is 10 - 20 sand crabs in the net - easy peasy -

There are so many sand crabs here at Asuncion that they get caught in my sandals when the waves recede. How's that for collecting sand crabs. I hate
sticking my hook through them, though. They kinda just squirm in your fingers.
