Hermosa Beach Pier

Report from Pierfishing.com

Got to the pier around 6:30am when it was just past low tide. Set up near the end before the faucet area, one stick for my sabiki (#8 hooks) and another as my live bait rig (1/2 oz. slider, caronlina keeper, #4 circle hook). Only found one suitable baitfish which was a small salema, but it helped me see my only action of the day--a short halibut just over 19". Got a nice net assist from one of the locals nearby for the catch and release.

Saw a pair of sandies and a couple yellowfin croakers pulled over the railing. Also saw another short hali a bit more towards the pier entrance. Macs and salema were fairly consistent during the morning.

Tim and Thomas, good to see you guys today.

Pretty full pier today (hey Tim)


Snapped this surfer just as he passed through the pilings.
