  • Tidal Conditions Favor Fishing Success in San Francisco Bay

    Tidal Conditions Favor Fishing Success in San Francisco Bay
    Nov 15 2024
    As of November 15, 2024, fishing in the San Francisco Bay is looking promising, especially with the current tidal conditions. Today, the sun rose at 6:49:56 AM and will set at 4:58:11 PM, giving us a good window of daylight to hit the waters.

    The tidal report shows a high tide at 8:17 AM and another at 8:49 PM, with low tides at 1:28 AM and 2:30 PM. The tidal coefficient is high, at 95, indicating strong tidal movements and currents, which can stir up the fish and make them more active[1].

    Weather conditions, though not detailed here, should be checked before heading out, as they can significantly impact fishing success. Generally, moderate tides like these provide good movement for the fish, making them more likely to bite[3].

    Fish activity has been good recently, with reports of halibut, lingcod, and rockfish being caught. Yesterday saw some decent catches, including halibut and lingcod, which are common in these waters. Rockfish are also plentiful, and the strong tidal movements should help in locating them[3][5].

    For lures and bait, it's best to use jigs and live bait such as anchovies or sardines for halibut and lingcod. For rockfish, using squid or shrimp can be very effective. The strong currents might also call for heavier tackle to keep your lines and lures in place.

    Hot spots in the San Francisco Bay include the areas around the Golden Gate Bridge and the tidal portions of the rivers and streams. The sloughs and estuaries between the Golden Gate Bridge and Carquinez Bridge are also known for their rich fish populations[5].

    Remember to check the current regulations, as the recreational fishery for Pacific halibut closes today, November 15, 2024, or when the quota is reached, whichever comes first. California halibut fishing remains open year-round, but be sure to follow the size and bag limits[5].

    With the right gear and knowledge of the tides, today should be a great day to catch some fish in the San Francisco Bay.

  • Great Fishing Forecast for the San Francisco Bay

    Great Fishing Forecast for the San Francisco Bay
    Nov 10 2024
    If you're planning to head out fishing in the San Francisco Bay area today, here’s what you need to know:

    First off, the weather is looking pretty favorable. Expect partly cloudy skies with mild temperatures, ranging from the mid-50s to the low 60s. The winds will be light, coming in from the northwest at about 5-10 mph.

    For tidal conditions, today's high tide is at 10:17 AM with a height of 6.4 feet, and the low tide is at 4:33 PM with a height of 1.3 feet. Sunrise was at 6:34 AM, and sunset will be at 4:53 PM.

    Yesterday saw some excellent fishing action in the Bay. The Sea Wolf, operating out of Emeryville, had a full-day trip with 21 anglers, bringing in 210 Dungeness crab and 86 rockfish[1][4].

    The New Huck Finn, also from Emeryville, had a full-day trip with 26 anglers, catching 260 Dungeness crab[1][4].

    For crabbing, the best bait to use is typically squid or anchovies, and for rockfish, try using lures like jigging spoons or plastic lures in shades of orange or red.

    Some hot spots to consider include the crab combo grounds near Emeryville and the coastal areas around Berkeley. The California Dawn II, which operates out of Berkeley, also had a successful full-day trip yesterday, catching 330 Dungeness crab and 100 rockfish[4].

    Overall, it's shaping up to be a great day for fishing in the San Francisco Bay area, with plenty of crab and rockfish to go around. Make sure to check the latest regulations and ensure you have all the necessary gear before you head out. Good luck on the water

    **Fish Activity:**
    Yesterday saw a strong showing of Dungeness crab, rockfish, and lingcod. Boats out of Emeryville and San Francisco reported excellent catches. For example, the Sea Wolf out of Emeryville brought in 220 Dungeness crab, 10 Petrale sole, and 100 sanddab with 22 anglers on board[5].

    **Best Lures and Bait:**
    For Dungeness crab, hoop nets baited with squid or crab attractants are highly effective. For rockfish and lingcod, use jigs or baited hooks with squid, anchovies, or shrimp. The rockfish are biting well on metal jigs and live bait.

    **Hot Spots:**
    - **The Farallon Islands:** Known for its rich marine life, this area is a hotspot for rockfish and lingcod.
