Striperboy, go to the canal and watch others fish a while, you'll see many different styles, get an idea about what methods are successful and find one that matches you. I like to jig, to do it right it takes the right tackle and a lot of lost jigs to get the feel.

Lots of people successfully chunk fish. I work with a guy who does quite well fishing chunk mackerel with nothing more than a hook a 3' leader a swivel and a rubber core sinker. Try to find a back eddy that will kind of hold the bait in one place when the current is running. Keep the rod in your hand so you can feel the pickup. Many a fish is missed whne the rod is wedged in the rocks, they don't all catch themselves.

Good luck and keep at it.
