Dillon beach Saturday 1/27

Going to Dillon beach in bodega for crab on Saturday. Any recent info on location (depth/general areas) is greatly appreciated. I hope to stay in <100’ of water and within jetty boundary unless going with others. Unloading between 7:30-8. Drifting bait for anything that bites between soaks. Any tips appreciated for local catch

Dillon Beach or Doran Beach?

If you are going to Doran Beach there may be a few other kayakers out there.

Few dozen you mean 

If you're really going to Dillon, then beware of the Tomales Bay mouth and the tides.  The current can really rip through that area and it can get dicey if you not keeping track of where you are.  If you're set on Dillon, then might be worth going down to Lawson's Landing and drop traps inside the Bay.

Otherwise, join us at Doran beach.  There should be 100 or us or so there all weekend.

Thank you! I’ve done Doran before and got skunked opening season. Didn’t realize there was an event going on. My other interested spot was deeper in Tomales bay by hog island.

Tomales (near hog island at least) hasn’t been that great this year

Let us know where and how you did. I usually go to Doran, but it has been slow there this year. Started out OK for the opener and went down hill until just recently. About two weeks ago I got eight Dungies. Not big, but legal. Would have limited if I kept the females, which was also larger than the males I kept.
