Hi, I’m new too. Live in Torrance and looking for some starting tips to fish for food when I travel cross country. Want to compare newbie tips? CarolynA

I haven’t fished since teen years. Goin’ camping… want to shore and pier fish in SoCal. Best Places, simple tips will be appreciated! Bought my first Zebco rod and reel yesterday with basic lures, sinkers, bobbers and hooks. Will practice dry casting first then look forward a nearby fishing spot. Getting ready for longer camping trips. Help!?!

I’m new to fishing and want to learn and practice skills at good fishing sites near me. I’m in Torrance CA. Any suggestions?
