Huge fish have a habit of appearing just in the nick of time for display.
I saw a trout there on ice billed as the world's largest, or something like that. The new highly fluorescent green on white Sumo jigs seemed to be a popular new item for tackle sellers. I saw Ken Sievers of Fisherman's Landing bumping through the aisles with a double handful of the jigs. Sometimes the fish respond. Recent scores on halibut, yellowtail and white sea bass are up sharply, as these species seem to be on the bite from Santa Monica Bay to the Rockpile, below the Coronados Islands.
