あらすじ・解説
As of November 15, 2024, fishing in the San Francisco Bay is looking promising, especially with the current tidal conditions. Today, the sun rose at 6:49:56 AM and will set at 4:58:11 PM, giving us a good window of daylight to hit the waters.
The tidal report shows a high tide at 8:17 AM and another at 8:49 PM, with low tides at 1:28 AM and 2:30 PM. The tidal coefficient is high, at 95, indicating strong tidal movements and currents, which can stir up the fish and make them more active[1].
Weather conditions, though not detailed here, should be checked before heading out, as they can significantly impact fishing success. Generally, moderate tides like these provide good movement for the fish, making them more likely to bite[3].
Fish activity has been good recently, with reports of halibut, lingcod, and rockfish being caught. Yesterday saw some decent catches, including halibut and lingcod, which are common in these waters. Rockfish are also plentiful, and the strong tidal movements should help in locating them[3][5].
For lures and bait, it's best to use jigs and live bait such as anchovies or sardines for halibut and lingcod. For rockfish, using squid or shrimp can be very effective. The strong currents might also call for heavier tackle to keep your lines and lures in place.
Hot spots in the San Francisco Bay include the areas around the Golden Gate Bridge and the tidal portions of the rivers and streams. The sloughs and estuaries between the Golden Gate Bridge and Carquinez Bridge are also known for their rich fish populations[5].
Remember to check the current regulations, as the recreational fishery for Pacific halibut closes today, November 15, 2024, or when the quota is reached, whichever comes first. California halibut fishing remains open year-round, but be sure to follow the size and bag limits[5].
With the right gear and knowledge of the tides, today should be a great day to catch some fish in the San Francisco Bay.
