Happiness is a warm gut pile
Nice corbina, they're the "bonefish" of So Cal, Try fishing them on 4# test, they can take line and put up a fight. If you can find them use the soft shell sand crabs with eggs.
Nice job Johnny. Be careful, surf fishing can turn into an obsession. Corbina and halibut from the surf are like trophy fishing.
There was a time when I fished the beach 4-5 days a week. Snake Charmer and I used to hit the beach after work or in the morning and kill some pretty respectable halibut. And like SC said, the corbs are like a bonefish. They hit your bait like a freight train and pull really hard on 4lb test!
I might just have to dust of the light tackle and get out there!

I hit the surf fishing hard for a summer or two, and never caught a corbina! Plenty of perch, sandsharks, and shovelnose. I think that's just a regular sand crab, but BIG!
I always wanted to use my bowfishing equipment to arrow the corbina when they slide up onto the beach, but I think people would get pretty worried if I walked along Imperial Beach or Mission Beach with a bow in my hands!

Love to fish the surf, havent been out yet this year. I love hitting it early in the morning and killing the perch for hours. Ive caught quite a few Corbina but never a halibut .
We should have a surf fishing fun tourney. Maybe $10.00 to get in and single heaviest fish of any species takes all. That would be a fun day in the sun. All entries must be a SCH member.
Any member can fish at any beach that has surf. you won't have to all fish together. So the guys from up north can enter too. It should be a one day event. $10 big fish pool optional. They can enter a pic of there fish hanging on a digital scale caught on said day. The night before we will release the name of an item that must be in the photo of your catch thus proving that the pic was taken on said day. For example if the indicator item is pencil, then any photo entry must have a pencil in the pic with the fish on the scale. We will release the name of the indicator item after sundown the night before. of course if we do this we will fine tune the details. Im just kinda thinking out loud, so let me know if it sounds lame. Who knows it could turn into an annual get together fun event.
