Saltwater Steel?
I've been lucky enough to catch one this year. Anyone know of anything else to use other than a Bush Point Special?

That is what I have always heard was the ticket and if I was fishing the salt for steel, that is what I would use.

That's the only thing I've been using, and I've only caught one. I have been seeing a fish hooked each day but its been really unproductive.

Re: Saltwater Steel?
Never fished them in salt.
I would imagine almost any kind of spinner, spoon, plug or whatever cast and retrieve lure would work. Probably shrimp, and various bait fish.
Find something else that works. If theres only a fish a day being caught you arent missing much with the squid thingy.

Between once and twice a week. Haven't gone this week though, the swells were really bad.
