We're catching halibut in San Francisco bay right now. The water temperature is rising and so is the bite.

The fishing is slow, but we are catching huge bass and crappie this year. Last week my buddy caught a 15.92-pound bass on a glide bait. We were catching a lot of fish using the hover stroll method, but now the bass are eating swim bait and A-rigs. Water temperature has dropped about 6 degrees, and that is why the bite has slowed. As soon as we get a little consistent weather, the lake will bust wide open. Most of the tournaments are taking 35+ pounds to win.

    Craig was excellent. He was very thorough in his communications with well timed phone calls to prepare in advance and out on the water he worked super hard to make sure each member of our party got on a fish. His deck hand Jake did a great job as well. Thank you Craig and Jake
