Clean-up and Fishing Redondo Breakwall 04-22-2012

Met up with Mahigeer at the foot of the jetty around 11:45 and he had already picked up two bags of trash. Shortly thereafter we proceeded to about 1/4 of the way up the jetty and I fished the outside for a while using market shrimp and cut sardine as bait. Got a few taps, but nothing stuck. Mahigeer poke poled the inside of the jetty for a while for the same results. I then moved over to the inside and dropped my bait in between rocks and kelp (tried squid, crab, mackerel and sardine. Crab seemed to work the best). First drop I got an almost immediate hit and I saw it happen! It looked like a small bass. After moving around dropping the bait here and there I finally got a small sculpin (8-9" or so) on a crab knuckle. Mahigeer was casting lures at this point but did not get anything. We picked up another bag of trash on the way out at around 3:00 P.M. and I picked up some weights Mahigeer made for me.
