I want to try my hand at catching live bait. I have caught live smelt on those live bait rigs but it takes to long.[unsure]
I bought an umbrella net but need some place in LB or Seal Beach to catch some smelt of chovies.
Any help will be appreciated[

Thanks for the info. I have tried Norms a couple times and there are always out of live smelt [unsure]
I found a good little spot near college downaround Palo Verde and Studebaker next to the school. I threw some bread out and within 5 minutes I had 3 large schools of smelt.
I suck with the net so I will use that live bait rig instead [cool]
