    The lure size you want to start with at the lower tides is 1/4 oz. You can size it up to 1/2oz or even 3/4oz when the tide goes up.

    Foster City/San Mateo help

    Hey scaryfish, are you planning on bait fishing or plugging? If bait fishing, head over to Fisherman's Park or Robert E Wooley state park and throw some squid for a chance of shark and mud marlins. There's lots of space for social distancing and you will get action on an incoming tide. If...

    Marin surf

    Thanks for a great report Charro. Did you use grubs the whole time or did you switch it up with other baits such as gulp sandworms or sandcrabs?

    Pier Report

    The key to crab netting a keeper halibut from a pier is to make sure the halibut is exhausted and to keep it just below the water line. I've seen people so excited, they rush over and have the halibut half-way out of the water while its still green. You do not want the halibut to do a last...
