California Travel Tips
Take the Kids Fishing
Published on: April 28, 2017
Pity the kids who never know the the tap-tap-tap of a bass as it tastes the worm on the end of your line or watch a bobber suddenly jiggle, then dive out of sight. There are plenty of opportunities this summer to grab grunion, compete for fishing derby prizes, and get “hooked” on fishing. Pictured is free Huck Finn Fishing Derby on Huntington Beach Pier Aug.12, 2017.
