How to catch live bait in harbor? i usually just fishing plastics, but want to try something different.

But i don't want to buy bait....is not the money that i don't want to spend, i want to learn how to get some live bait by myself..

Any tips? let say that i fishing in NP harbor....

I use the smallest sabiki i can find. Buy a loaf of cheap bread and start chumming! the smelt and occasional macks go crazy. I do it in SD and oside harbor. You can find them by eel grass or large docks/boats.

If your launching at the coastguard station there is always alot of smelt. Size 16 sabiki do well. Closer you get the mouth of the harbor the better chance at sardine and macs

Try chumming with a can of the cheapest cat food you can get. Seafood flavor of course
