  • Summary

  • As of November 17, 2024, the fishing scene in the San Francisco Bay is looking quite promising. Here’s a rundown of what you can expect today.

    ### Tidal and Weather Conditions
    The tidal conditions are favorable, with a high tide at around 8:30 AM and a low tide at 2:30 PM. The weather is expected to be partly cloudy with mild temperatures, making it an ideal day to be out on the water. Sunrise was at 6:45 AM, and sunset will be at 4:55 PM.

    ### Fish Activity
    Yesterday saw some excellent fishing, particularly for striped bass and halibut. The Flash Sport Fishing boats reported catching limits of bass and several sizable halibut. Rockfish and lingcod were also plentiful, with multiple boats returning with full catches[4].

    ### Types and Amounts of Fish
    Striped bass were abundant, with reports of 14 limits (28 bass) caught on recent quarter-day trips. Halibut were also active, with several boats landing good-sized fish. Rockfish and lingcod were caught in significant numbers as well[3][4].

    ### Best Lures and Bait
    For striped bass, live bait such as anchovies or sardines is highly effective. For halibut, using live bait like herring or squid can increase your chances of a catch. When targeting rockfish and lingcod, jigs and lures that mimic their natural prey work well[4].

    ### Hot Spots
    Some of the best spots to try your luck include the areas around the Golden Gate Bridge, where the tidal currents create ideal conditions for bass and halibut. The South Bay, particularly around the Dumbarton Bridge, has also been producing good results for rockfish and lingcod[2][4].

    Overall, it's shaping up to be a great day for fishing in the San Francisco Bay. Make sure to check the local fishing reports for any last-minute updates and enjoy your time on the water.
