Searching for California Corbina in the Surf
I’ve been on the hunt recently for the California Corbina aka the “Grey Ghost”
These extremely hard to catch fish are plentiful on Southern California beaches during the spring and summer months and can reach sizes of close to 30”
Anglers catch them on sand crabs, lugworms, mussels and perch grubs using C-Rigs and ultralight tackle targeting the shallow areas of the surf. Corbina tend to come in close in the skinniest part of the waters to feed on sand crabs.
I prefer to catch them on 805 Custom Baits motor oil paddle tails. These baits consistently get bit on by quality Corbina and have produced some of the largest fish I have seen to date!
Thanks for watching

Corbina are actually the shallowest parts of the water. I use waders when targeting other fish but these elusive fish are found right at the shoreline. If you are in the water you will spook them!

@@SbsurfanglerI'm inclined to agree. They're so close it's frustrating; bumping into my feet! Absolute behemoths almost beaching themselves. I had two chances to barehand some today. I almost think a hand net and spear might land more fish haha so crazy this summer down in Carlsbad, San Diego. It's a corbina bananza, and I can't catch any 😅 (help me, ima bout to start tossing dynamite)

@@KyleDixon88I’m working on some epic Corbina fishing footage.. the best advice i can give is to stay dedicated and patient. Corbina are very frustrating fish to catch, lots of missed strikes and spooks. I miss several opportunities before i actually hook up
Crabs for corbs!
