  • Cousin Jim explores the fishing off the Huntington Beach Pier Surf City has some fabulous fishing right next to the surf competition sometime it is a battle for the fishermen to avoid the surfers. Queenfish, Corvina, Halibut, and Thresher Shark are all commonly caught off this pier.

      Salton Sea corvina all died out years ago due to the rising salinity. Only thing left is the tilapia which will one day die out as well if the rising salinity continues and nothing will be left.

    This sums up pier-fishing in SoCal. Barely any action and lots of people trying to get into other peoples businesses lol. Was excited to see some action but just like it is at Newport, little to no action until those Mexicans start snagging fish. They snag huge spot-fins, mullet, corbina, Sargos, bonito, halibut, white seabass, surf perch and occasionally bluefin tuna. These guys catch a large amount and end up selling the type they don’t like to eat. It’s so much action and excitement, really makes me want to do it as well but heard it was illegal and their leader seems to be complicated. Idk but it’s awesome and def makes up for the lack of activity when fishing bait. 🤷🏻🤷🏻
