    Found a few early casting jerk baits along seawalls and rip rap. Switched to deep jigging bridge pilings and picked up 12 - 15 juveniles before hooking two keepers, one 21 and one 23 inch striper.

      Baitfish

    Rockfish were going crazy last week Aug 23rd chasing baitfish around the Bay Bridge area. Lots of topwater action but we used soft swimbaits. Caught so many we lost count. Most were small but I did catch one keeper!

    fishing was very slow. picked one off here and there. all fish were caught in and around grass at high and low tide. numerous baits worked in many different colors. most all had to be worked slowly.
