Techniques For Sea Fishing In California

Sea fishing off the coast of California is fun and exciting no matter what type of fishing you choose to do

. You have so many different options to choose from when fishing off the coast of California that it's easy to find something perfect for all anglers to enjoy.

For example, you can fish from a pier, the shoreline, venture out several yards into the ocean or go deep sea fishing. It will all depend on what type of fishing you enjoy the most and what type of equipment you have available to you.

There are many species of fish found in the oceans of California such as the swordfish, marlin, Mahi Mahi, barracuda, halibut, mackerel, rockfish, salmon, shark and tuna. Before you go sea fishing in California you need to make sure you have the right type of equipment to get the job done. Otherwise, it will hinder your fishing experience.

There are two main things that you need to be concerned with when choosing your equipment. One is having equipment that is designed to be used in the salt air environment. Freshwater gear will rust and corrode when used for sea fishing.

The salt air and water will ruin the equipment very quickly and you'll soon have to replace everything. Salt water tackle is designed to hold up to the elements and they won't corrode and rust. However, it's recommended that you always use fresh water to rinse off your equipment after every fishing trip to keep them looking like new.

The other main concern when it comes to your equipment is making sure you have the right type of gear, which will actually depend on the type of fishing you plan to do. For instance, if you plan to go surf fishing, you'll need a surf fishing rod. If you plan to go deep sea fishing, then you'll need heavy duty equipment that will hold up to the larger species of fish found out in the deeper parts of the ocean.

The technique that you use when sea fishing will partly depend on the type of fishing you're doing but there are 3 techniques for sea fishing in California that are used more often than others. These are listed below:

1. Bottom fishing is very popular when sea fishing in California. All you need to do is anchor the boat in position over the area where the fish should be located. Hang your rod overboard and allow the bait to drop to the bottom of the ocean floor and wait for a bite.

Using electronics is the best way to find schools of fish in the ocean. You can also enjoy bottom fishing from a pier if you don't have access to a boat.
