La Jolla 2-14-2022 on the Solo Skiff - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I see alot of reports of folks catching bait, fly lining bait or trolling nomads or some other diving lure, and blanking out saying the fish must not have been there. I know the majority of the kayak fisherman fish this way at LJ. It's an effective way to catch yellowtail most times of the year but sometimes it's not. I guess my question is do you guys ever change it up? Try a dropper loop at the bottom? Yoyo over marks? Catch squid on a not so secret squid bite? Or just say, you know what I'm just going to target halibut today?
