there is plenty to do with a pole spear in pacific beach. It is in my opinion "the best way" to hone your skills in the water as a hunter. You have to get much closer with a pole than you do a gun thus improving your stalking abilities.
Just because there are lots of perch isnt a bad thing for a person just starting out either. you will find that each member of the perch species reacts differently to you. It is a great start to understanding how fish react to your movements and sounds. You have just started your trip into a very challenging, dangerous, fun and extrememly addicting sport. Take baby steps and learn as you go.
This is a great forum for advise on equipment, safety and training but nothing will do more for you than time in the water.
good luck

PS leave the sharks alone.
