I think I may have gotten my bait mixed up as I was referring to white croakers as herring. Thanks.

They arent.
A white croaker (tomcod) looks like a yellowfin croaker in body shape and downturned mouth but w/o the yellow fins. Queenfish have an underbite (longer lower jaw) and do "look" like an atlantic herring a bit but are also croakers like white sea bass are. For bait you can use flyingfish for WSB, rockfish for yellowtail, and yellowtail for marlin. As long as it is legal to keep in number and size you can bait it. Queenfish are good bait.

Its funny how history repeats. I was posting this stuff long ago too. I once got a white croaker a whitefish and a (short) white seabass in the same day off Laguna. Woo.
Queenfish top White croaker bottom.
