ive seen alot of thresher posts and pics and i want in on some of the action i have a 10 ft inflatable w/15hp and thats easily beach launched and a 16 ft aluminum w/15 hp i was wondering what are some of the basic rigs and techniques used and and also some decent areas to target i live in guadalupe which is near oceano and arroyo grande so i might go as far south as ventura or as far north as cayucus i plan on fishing the piers w pier rat when they are in but hopefully ill get better action sooner on my skiffs im not asking for secret gps spots or anything so hopefully there are some people cool enough to kick down with some tips thanksamil

Where you're at I am not sure they get them out of Morro but I would head to Santa Barbara and launch out of there and just troll a dine or mac on a shark leader (125# steel cable) about 7 bucks made up at sports chalet. Get the 6/0 hooks and nose hook (troll) or tail hook (drift) the bait and troll around the area. You can all so just drift in about 30+ feet of water and let the bait swim around. No real science to it. The best thing is look for bait balls and troll through them in hopes a T will come an chow down. Make sure you make up a tail rope ahead of time if you plan on keeping them. I would run 30+ pound line and any rod reel combo that can handle it.

7FOOT ROD 15-30LB CLASS WITH TORIUM20 SPOOLED WITH 30# ANDY PINK ,BAIT MAC,DINS FOR SURE STEEL LEADER WITH CIRCLE HOOK,GOOD LUCK,THIS HAS WORKED FOR ME
Ballyhood and mack combos are deadly and Megabait makes a great lure kida resembling a rapala that dives fairly deep and works like a charm. Tail net is important if you wanna take one home BUT do the next generation a favor and if they aint mature let em swim. TIGHT LINES MAN
