Took on the berm!!!! San Diego bay.....fish report. High tide 9am.

even though they're mostly on the bottom, they move around a lot. don't get too discouraged - just keep bouncing. id make mental note of that first spot and try to go back there on a similar tide.

imo short bite and missed hookup are terms that are synonymous w/ halibut fishing, especially if you're bit by little ones. if using live bait, i like to let my live bait slide through whatever is holding the weight, so i can let the butt attack and swallow bait. i just have to be quick on the rig as soon as i feel even a light set of taps, drop it into free spool. if i miss it, try again. i've gone back 2 min later and caught fish i just missed. i prefer to fish one rod really carefully than to have 2 or more rods out. and personally, i don't like treble stingers on live bait, but whatever works for you.

of course they're known to pop off at the boat too. shake it off (pun intended) and get back to it.

thanks for post. got me interested again in targeting one of the tastiest fish.

and really cool rig! that'll keep you in shape.
