The Oakland Airport is hotspot for sturgeon, halibut, and stripers.  It's been rumored that 11 sturgeon were landed here one Saturday by shore fishermen.  The launch is a small sandy strip which may not be exposed during a very high tide.  You simply park along the street curb and carry your kayak about 20 yds to the beach....

Here's another picture showing the north end of the airport and the  restricted area bouys about 400 yds out.

In this picture you can see the Harbor Bay/Bayfarm Island Ferry dock in the distance.  According to the locals some of the better holes are closer to the ferry.


Directions:
-Take 880 and exit 98th Ave towards the Oakland Airport
-Turn onto the Harbor Bay/Ron Cowan Pkwy (1/2 mile before the airport)
-Follow Harbor Bay Pkwy until you see the launch site on your left.
-Whip a u-turn and park along the curb.
- GPS coordinates are N 37'43.725 & W 122'14.882
