Any tips for finding butts if any in monterey/delmonte area ? rigs, bait, lure? should I use a spreader and a dodger? Do they like gel scents?

Give a man a fish, he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish, he'll sit all day with a rod in his hand and no fish.

Hello y'all,

Me (Jason) and my wife (Theresa) moved to Monterey last year for me to complete my graduate degree in Marine Science at CSUMB.
