If you really wanna target a "big" Hali, then you want to use big baits. While you can catch large ones on small baits, you will spend less time dealing with smaller models and bycatch by sticking to large baits. I prefer Sardines, Spanish Macks, live Squid and Greenbacks in that order. Cover a lot of ground with just enough weight to keep your sinker on or just above the bottom. Fish multiple rods in a tight pattern because they will seldom move more than a few feet to chase a bait down. Fish near structure whether it be kelp, grass, hard bottom, slope, bumps, holes, reefs etc. Especially structure that has bait fish near the bottom around it.
