Yep many ways to catch em.

First step is finding them. Here's how we find em:

We read the report at www.oregon-inlet.com. We ask around the dock to see where the bite has been recently. North or south and how far? Once we have a general idea the next day we will head in that direction stopping occasionally to look for birds/marks. If no birds/marks keep on gettin it until we see birds/marks or the armada of boats! We went over 30 miles north on one trip and I've had friends that went over 40 in one direction to catch fish in an outboard.

We keep spinning outfits ready with top water stuff and bucktails. The swim shad soft baits work pretty good. Metal works also.

What we usually do is troll around using Mann's stretch 30's deep diving lures. 4 or 5 rods out with the back 2 wb and wwb. When we find concentrated fish we might stop and jig some bucktails. When we find em busting the top we stop and cast too! ;D

Optimum trolling speed with the stretches has been around 5 - 5.5mph for us.

Colors I like for Mann's stretch 30's are:

Blue/Chrome
Black/Chrome
Black/Gold
Red/White (old standby)

Welp, that's how we do it and it seems to work for us! Hope it helps.
