Nice pair Salty!

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. Just adjust your retrieve speed to avoid snagging onto the rocks. My go to lure for plugging the area is 1/4 or 1/2 bucktail jig with a white or chartreuse curly...

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...

Be safe. Big Swells this weekend.

I'd be interested in your tutorial.

Nice going Red!

Love the report Charro1! Congrats on the impressive catch!

Dam Matt...that's a BEAST.(y)

ILYA, are you bombing Mickys in the surf zone or just bouncing swim baits in the bay? If your tossing heavy metal to the stripers, then throw nothing lower than 20 lb test mono or flouro. I personally use 25 lb big game mono as my leader and i do just fine. There's folks who swear by flouro...

+1 on the read only version. Lots of great knowledge to be had!

Hey DSRTEGL, check out ASIANA Market in Cotati. It's address is 7665 Old Redwood Hwy. They should have what you need there and it's not far from Rohnert Park.

Nice haul! Did you get them flatties on frozen posicles, live bait, or lures?

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?

Look like a bluefish to me too. Dude has a sweet setup though.

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...

Thanks for the report Astralography. Success will find you as long as you continue putting in the time.

I had a two hour window to fish the East Bay shoreline between my honey-dos and was able to land several stripers and a shaker halibut. One of the stripers was a keeper at 19 inches but released it for someone else to catch in the future.:)

Thanks for the report. Was planning on getting my crab fix over there this Saturday but chores took too long to finish. LOL DSRTEGL, have you ever snared at Dillons Beach? I bet it would be good there. I've seen many dungee shells wash up on the shore line when perch fishing there.

Hey Red, is this pier typically more productive on the incoming or outgoing tides?
