california pier fishing

[Jedburton]

i am visiting my in-laws in fresno for a week and would like to fish as much as possible while I am here. I will probably be down in the oxnard area friday and saturday. Any advice on species/rigs etc. would be greatly appreciated. On saturday I will be fishing with tubn2 on a boat, but friday i would love to try some fishing from shore or pier. Also if anyone knows the monterey area well, I may be in monterey on thurs. Once again any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.
