Striped Bass

Striped bass are one of California's most popular gamefish, known for their strong fighting ability and substantial size. These migratory fish move seasonally through the San Francisco Bay Delta system, following baitfish and responding to water temperatures and flows. Striped bass fishing varies dramatically with seasons, tides, and weather conditions. Size and bag limits help maintain sustainable populations while providing excellent fishing opportunities. Both landlocked and anadromous populations exist in California waters. Always check the current CDFW regulations and practice proper striped bass fishing techniques.
