Life of the Party
My buddy recently got a boat and is wanting to get his kids in to some fun, easy, fast paced fishing. I recommended he just bounces the bottom for some of the regular by catch that is so common. I haven't done much gear fishing here, so when pressed further I couldn't provide many more details. Looking for recommendations on gear setup and if not specific locations, the type of areas he should be targeting to maximize success and get them interested quickly.
My first thought was jig heads with small grubs, drop shot with grubs/bait, bandana weight with the same trialing. Like any beach angler I've caught plenty from the beach, also out deep jigging/mooching for salmon. Just not sure what to look for for ideal conditions. I'm sure he'd prefer to be in some protected waters (Dyes Inlet) with the kiddos than out bouncing around at Jeff Head with the salmon folks and big waves while trying to teach the kids to fish.
Any tips would be helpful.
