Uncertified World Record
This 40 inch 21 lb Giant White Sea Bass was caught by yours truly on May 5, 2006 while surffishing at Manhattan Beach. Rod was a 7 wt. RPXLi with a 325 grain shooting head and 6 lb. tippet. Fish was released.
Fishing at our local flats
Fishing for corbina is just as challenging as permit and bonefish. These spooky flats feeders are available if you want to put the time in to catch them. This fishing is as hard as it gets.

Local Sargo
Fishing the Venice Beach in the rain is a lonely proposition but awards await the patient. This 14 inch Sargo really fought hard.
