Thinking of heading to SC to pick up some anchovy or mackerel this weekend, has anyone had luck fishing or netting from the pier recently?

Last year I spent a lot of time trolling the bounce-ball rig, usually with 10oz weight. I use this cheapo rod (7' medium heavy) and it seems just about ideal, action-wise:

Assuming that the ratings are consistent across different models, I think you'll want medium heavy.

Thanks, always nice to save a some money and still get a reliable rig. Do you use the bounce ball setup with a crippled anchovy? Not sure if I was working the current correctly, my setup kept getting twisted up.. even while just drifting. Wasn't even using a flasher.

Do you have ball bearing or ball chain swivel to help prevent line twist?

Sincerely,

General Fishing Tips / Re: are west coast stripers hybrids??

« on: December 10, 2017, 02:29:58 AM »

I would say the broken lines for West Coast stripers are a genetic thing. After all, initial stripers on West Coast came from just a few hundred fish planted back in the 1880s.....
