Opaleye was are winter fishery at Zuniga jetty, we would anchor up along the jetty and chum up the opaeye with frozen peas and put 3 on a hook cast it into the rocks and slowly wind to keep from getting tangled and wham-o we always filled a 5gal bucket up. Opaleye eat like crappie and fight like no tomorrow on a small spiner and light pole. I fished 3 different boats that way. One time my 20ft cuddly cabin slipped anchor and we washed right over the top of the rocks with out doing any damage. We have caught just about every species of fish at the jetty on frozen peas. That was before ocean kayaks
