Hey guys,
Here's another toy I got recently. It's called a pump but actually it sucks the critters along the beach out of the sand, ready to be offered our fishy friends. Here in Southern California we have ghost shrimp on many of our beaches and these guys are primo bait for any fish that swims, especially the surf perch, corbina and others.
Mine really works well and fishing success is greatly increased. Looks like a fat bicycle pump with no hose. Operation is simple. While pushing the tube in a likely spot you pull the handle so the suction effect will kick in. Yank the tube out of the sand push the handle back in and grab your ghost shrimp, shell fish, blood worm, or crab.
I ain't leavin' home without it from now on!
