Coyote Point fishing is heating up. If you can find the Birds and bait there are sure to be some striped bass lurking beneath them. On April 16th my son and I headed out to the marshes of Coyote point for some striper actions. The day before my son was out there and the fish were hitting. Key to catching fish is timing the tides just right. You want to hit the tide about two hours before the high and an hour or so after. Bait of choice is anything top you that you like to throw. Fish were being caught on medium sized poppers (white and red), pearl and red spooks, and floating minnows and rebels. Evening bite seems to be best at this time. If you hit it at the right time you will get to enjoy watching stripers go airborn as they chase your lure! GOOD LUCK!

3/9/2020 San Francisco Bay Fishing Report- Oyster Point


Saturday marked the unofficial start of the Halibut season in San Francisco Bay. With an average of 1 keeper halibut per rod charters and private boaters are excited about the season to come. The South Bay on Saturday was the hot spot with fish from the bird cage to Candlestick Point. Trolling herring behind a dodger seems to work best bet right now. Sunday slowed quite a bit with the pressure changing and Saturdays rain. The tidal coefficient is high for the next few days which can also impact catch rates of halibut.
Striped Bass are also around but tend to be on the schoolie size or smaller. Find bait and there is a good chance a school of striped bass are hanging around. bucktail jigs will always produce along and many are being caught trolling for Halibut.
