I used to fish the Ventura pier with my dad and two brother in 1946-1947. I remeber the wooden pier often gave my bare feet splinter. I was a young boy of 7 or 8. My brothers used to chew tobacco and spit the juice on the cut salted anchovy bait. We always caught a string of Tom cod, (Tommy Croaker), that we would fry up for dinner in cornmeal. In 1949 we moved to Bellflower and I frequented the Seal Beach and Belmont piers. I loved to fish the piers and used to catch spotfin croaker near the surf and halibut was always the prize to catch. I also fished Huntington Beach and rarely Balboa pier.
