Bait has been scattered once again, but no fear. Dead cigar minnows are working just fine. The kings are fired up on 8a and pelican in large numbers, with bluefin tuna and sailfish mixed in, too.

Shark fishing has been okay at best. Nothing crazy, but decent. The bull reds are starting up as well and they are all close to shore. Use live bait or cut bait for them — they eat anything!

Good luck!
