Caught one opaleye on a small jig fly, and the other simply casting a single hook with a piece of corn on it, using my fly rod. Next trip will give corn a try. Fly fishing with a piece of bait seemed to work rather well. I have also been told that squid works. Went over to Catalina this week.

One day a friend of mine saw some guy's on the jetty with a bunch of huge Opal Eye. They said they used the moss from the nearby lagoon as bait. At the time I thought they might be joking but I guess they weren't. I’m 62 now but I remember as a kid surfing the south jetty in Oceanside.
