Two posts in two days? The end is nigh! Maybe, but more importantly, the schools of bait at the yellow buoy have been positively identified as sardines and herring with some schools of shiner perch at the bottom. The guys doing the identifying caught quite a few baits but had no game fish bite. This was at the turn of the high tide and the water was 52º, so the low tide may have different results as the water temp should be a bit more balmy. Actual results may vary. The bait is here. The fish just need to find it. 

      A second report from this weekend is that a camper here caught 50ish surfperch over two days near the sand point. He only kept a couple of the larger models, but he had pretty steady action. The perch were red-tail and barred. I haven't heard of  any stripers. I guess they must all be in San Francisco Bay and in the rivers eating salmon smolts. Well, somebody should be eating some salmon, I guess. I wish it was me, though.
