Help with fishing info in Ventura Harbor
I need some advice on fishing in saltwater. I'm on vacation now with my family at Ventura harbor. We own a timeshare property right at the water and I'm thinking about trying some fishing here from the shore. Anyone live in local, or anybody ever fish in Ventura harbor and know what kind bait and what size hook that I can use to produce perch, croaker or other kind of fish here? Honestly, I don't even know what kind of fish there are in this area. What is the best bait to use? Any tips will help and will be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
I did some fishing with a spinning rod today with some stinky anchovies and caught a few Mackerel and Perch on a size 10 treble hook. I lost two good sized fish on the way in, I don't know what kind fish they were. Here are a few pictures that I took today.
