USCG & DFG Licensed & Fully Insured
Fish the “Middle Grounds” of San Francisco Bay, an area with some of the best Striped Bass flyfishing on the West Coast.
- WHEN?
May through November is the optimum time to pursue Stripers on the bay. The best months rank in this order … October, September, June, May, & November.
- WHERE?
All these spots are within a 10 to 15 minute run … Red Rock, the Brothers, the Sisters, Marin Islands, China Camp, San Quentin, Richmond Bridge, Paradise Cove, and California City. This area is the heart of the best striper fly fishing the bay has to offer!
BOAT: A 22'Boston Whaler Dauntless with a 200 HP Evinrude. Rigged specially for fly fishing, it has two stern mounted electrics for precise maneuvering and control. Fast and Comfortable. Docked on Corte Madera Creek ... right in the center of the best fishing areas of the bay!
Equipment: We fish with 8 and 9 weight rods, usually with fast sinking lines. Bring your own or use one of my top-of-the-line outfits. Primarily Sage rods and quality large arbor reels. All flies and leaders are supplied. Top water outfits with floating lines are available if the opportunity presents itself!
A cooler with ice, water, and soft drinks will be on board. Bring sandwiches and/or snacks if you like.
Catch and Release is encouraged and the use of barbless hooks is easier on the fish and safer for the caster.
Due to tides and changing wind conditions, half-day charters (4 hours of fishing time) are recommended. Save the longer trips for periods of predictable weather and good fishing. The Fall Run, during September and October, is a great time for longer trips.
