There is a shore line trail heading out from the Glenn Cove Marina and club house. Its part of the carquinez strait shoreline trail. I'm not sure on the parking situation there as I am always in the neighborhood above house sitting. I'm sure there is probably a street nearby as most of them have access to the trail.
Yup! That’s my stomping grounds. I personally prefer going to the other side of the marina and walking the trail away from the bridge, but I have noticed all the sizable fish closer to the bridge! Also there is public parking there at the marina outside the gate.

That's a great fish! Congratulations. I'm still waiting to land a big'n. I usually get out and comb the shores from Glenn Cove Marina in Vallejo up to the bridges and the Maritime Academy. I almost always catch fish but they are usually small. Last trip I did hook into a big one but she took me in the rocks and broke me off clean. Really nice catch you got there.
Thanks! I’m actually at glen cove fishing right now. Haven’t hooked anything big or even keeper size here since last year but it’s worth a try.

Where did you put your trap in to catch the bait and what did you use to bait your minnow trap with?

Yup that’s exactly where I was fishing, when facing the water all the way to the left of the ferry. I put my minnow trap right over the wall and leave it for at least an hour before checking it. I throw in left over meat, a can of tuna with oil or deviled ham, and a bunch of frozen anchovies that have been refrozen a bunch of times. Usually I’m getting about a quart size ziplock bag full of shrimp from it.

Late post, but last week I got my PB striper. This beast put up a good fight. Got him on freshly caught grass shrimp(in a minnow trap) and anchovy combo. It actually put up a good fight too. 28 inches and pretty heavy, didn’t get an exact weight.

I though it open up last last Saturday?? On the 4-30 ?
Troll with Silver #7 Flat fish, or Frog color with Davis trolling blades with 1oz wgt. On the rudder blade if you don't have lead line or a down Rigger.
And I would go 7 colors to start.

For a trophy trout in that area, yeah trolling is the way to go.

Convict lake! Pretty decent fat trout, and they bite top water, bobbers with night crawlers, kastmasters, things like that. You can always see them from the shore and can see clearly to the bottom of the lake, super clear water. Power bait rarely works there though.

I just came back from fort Bragg, we camped at Caspar beach for a few days crabbing and fishing. Fishing only caught one tiny flounder. Crabbing however, I used crab snares from the shore and had decent luck, but hardly any keepers, in fact I only kept one keeper because it wasn’t female. For me it seems the peak of each tide is best, whenever the surf is at its most gentle works for me. The bait I used is anchovies and squid marinated in wilapa crab and shrimp attractant.

Eckley Pier (License is not required but sturgeon tags are) and the end of the road in Port Costa.
I would recommend using eel (crabs will eat everything else) and 8 oz spider/spudnik wt.

Agreed. Although I haven’t had a problem with crab there in quite a while, grass shrimp, ghost shrimp, eel and roe are all good baits for eckley.

Love fishing lake Herman. All the bass are relatively small but it’s still a fun and challenging lake. RatL traps work great but there’s a lot of snags, and chatterbaits, dark colors and pearl work best for me

Anybody catch any salmon from shore yet? I’m thinking about going this weekend, joining the first st crowd Saturday and Sunday.
