Jim Hendricks has covered fishing and boating for more than 35 years. Based in Southern California. Jim keeps his thumb on the pulse of what is biting around Catalina Island, Longbeach, San Diego and on down the coast to Mexico. He's a veteran boater and his original Cabo, the Split Decision, is one of the most tricked-out small vessels you'll come across. Jim talks about the differences between East Coast and West Coast fishing and we touch on everything So Cal has to offer from bluefin tuna to white sea bass. Jim is the West Coast editor for Salt Water Sportsman and Sport Fishing.
