Shallow water (under 6 feet) use Big Hammer 3 inch on light heads in Prizm Pepper Trout, Clear Red, Mackerel, or Bleeding Olive Herring
Deeper water use Big Hammer 4 & 5 inch baits on 3/8 - 3/4 oz. heads in Blue Green Sardine, Clear Red, Silver Sardine, Kei Lime, or Bleeding Olive Herring

There are also a couple shallow water halibut articles in the techniques section.
