[paoloromero619]

@anhthai999 You can get the pump online or at your local saltwater tackle store. Don't know have far up or down these shrimp live. Try googling it.

[MrEastside619]

got to go get some Ghost shrimp now where was you pumping for the ghost shrimp?

[paoloromero619]

@MrEastside619 Dog Beach...park by the ballfields at Mission Bay park. Just make sure the tide is right.

[paoloromero619]

@sexy52637 it's right next to dog beach in the Mission Beach area

[WordOfTheDayguy]

damn wtf you guys where on fire! hey wheres the best place to look for ghost shrimp specifically?

[paoloromero619]

@WordOfTheDayguy Dog beach...park about 50 yards down from the softball fields. Then go straight down from your parking spot. It's a little difficult to explain but if you go park at the park, look out for people pumping.

stick it in and pull then dump it and pull again. Dont pump it.

@MrSaeteurn If you have really big ghost shrimp, then you can cut them in half for smaller fish. But generally the ghost shrimp we get when we pump in Southern Cali is pretty small (~2 in). A whole shrimp is easily eaten by black perch, opaleye, etc. Any fish smaller than that and you probably wouldn't want to catch it anyways.

Is this in san diego? Man.. when i used to live there, I always went to that beach..

[MrSaeteurn]

@bigminnowfisher they are fishing for small fish, i dont think the small fish can eat them like that. if you are going for a big fish like sturgeon then yes, use as whole.

[bigminnowfisher]

@MrSaeteurn You go through all that trouble to pump up live ghost shrimp and then you cut it up?! No, you definitely want to fish the ghost shrimp whole and as alive as possible.

[bigminnowfisher]

@MrSaeteurn In California, the limit of ghost shrimp is 50 per day per person total along with any mud shrimp you may also pump up.

@BandCBallPythons California sculpin have venous spines, but Cabezon do not. The only part that is poisonous on a Cabezon is the roe, and only if you eat it.

[MrSaeteurn]

which part of the ghost shrimp do you use? cut into small pieces right?

@paoloromero619

Dog beach is in OB...I'm confused?

[MrSaeteurn]
