The Fishing Report
December 11th, 2008The coast: Phoned one of the tackle shops in Pacifica that keeps tabs on the various happenings at the pier, and the news was somewhat less than thrilling. Very few Dungeness and very little of anything else. In terms of fish, there are kingfish and there are bullheads coming up on the shrimp- and pile worm-baited hooks. In fact, the fishing for bullheads is going fairly well, to the extent that many of the horned little fish are kept and brought north and east, to be used as striped bass bait in the delta. And crab … The guy on the phone knew of a guy who landed five Dungies the other morning, all brought in by way of a squid-laced snare rig. Otherwise, the catch is closer to one or none for a day of trying. Worse still, there are crabbers baiting their rings with chicken, which, oddly enough, seems to just beg the sea lions to move in, which more or less shuts down all the other fishing. Nothing else, time on the pier is bound to be interesting.
