Summary:  After Saturday we will get a four-day break from the minus tides.  Will it be enough to clear up the water?  Big "Maybe."   The wise angler will seek fish in 10 feet of water or more in the bays during the day and target sturgeon at night.
 
 
 

STRIPED BASS:  Stripers are spread out all over the bays, with the best prospects remaining in Marin from China camp to San Quentin, and then from Richmond to Emeryville.  Berkeley Pier is still seeing several big fish per day on live offerings.  Try Fort Point In San Francisco on hair raisers.  If you like fast currents for some reason, try live bullheads from Martinez to Point Pinole.  Night time is still the right time for surf enthusiasts using bait and lures from Ocean Beach down to Pacifica.
 

STURGEON:  No change. San Pablo bay at night is where you want to be, from Pinole on to Rodeo with shrimp baits or pile worms.
 

PERCH: The theater is dark in the bays until August.  Striped perch lead the fare where the beaches meet the rocks from Pillar Point all the way up to Point Reyes.  Pile worms.
 
 
 

MISCELLANEOUS SPECIES:  Halibut are still around at Berkeley Pier  though somewhat scarce, possibly due to low murky water during the daytime.  Oyster Point  through Candlestick has been more productive, with Alameda Rockwall fair enough for an alternative. Live baits all the way.  Lots of baby smoothhounds around the bays.  Bat Rays are more in the South Bay.  So are jacksmelt.
