I meant ocean white fish. They have a small mouth and prefer squid strips. I also saw some sheepshead the other day on shrimp. If you go double dropper loop with a squid strip and a shrimp will never fail. For halibut i prefer trolling along the edges of where the eel grass and rocks meet the sand. This can be from 15 to 30 feet of water (need a fish finder). If you don't have a FF trolling the edges of the kelp with a live Mack or squid on a Carolina rig off the bottom will get you halibut, as well as the chance for a WSB or even a yellow
Good luck out there and Stay safe
