Should i use something like a sliding egg sinker or a bounce ball rig? Also do you guys do a slow troll or ket the wind drift you? Is 20lb line overkill? If you guys can answer these questions ill be set and ready. Thanks alot all help is appreciated.
Havn't fished Cabrillo harbor, but if its a sandy bottom a sliding sinker, 1.5-2 oz should be good depending on how the water is moving. Slow trolling is good because you will cover more ground

if there is a lot of crab grass, a reverse dropper loop type set up with a torpedo sinker will keep your bait above the grass and the torpedo will pass through without picking up (hopefully) a ton of crab grass

A stinger is also recommended depending on the size of the bait.
