A few of us have decided to to change things up and leave the kayaks at home. We are planning to hunt for Surf Perch on Sat 8/10 somewhere in the bay area. Not sure where yet. Thinking Muir, Baker, China or Gray Whale beaches. If anyone has gone lately, any pointers on what direction to go would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Kevin. If anyone feels like joining us, you're more than welcome to!

Hi Kevin, I go every 6 weeks or so to Salmon Creek, well I walk from the south parking lot (in the homes soulth of Salmon Creek along the beach down to the Dunes park and fish all through there.... I have caught many there but also every once in a while get skunked..... Let me know if you want company and may Join you all where ever you end up going.

Troy, as of now, we are leaning towards Muir beach.

I fished Steep Ravine a couple weeks ago. One lunker of a perch, otherwise it was very slow.

Hey Kevin, wish I could join you guys!
I took the kids to Rockaway beach in Pacifica a few weeks ago, and cast a line for about an hour or so. Only caught one, right up on the beach edge of the trough, maybe 15 feet in front of me. I was using a gulp sandworm on a dropshot type rig. There were a few other guys fishing too, but they were throwing swim baits for stripers - I didn't see them catch anything.
That said, I am no perch whisperer, and I fully recognize my tactics are far from optimal, haha. Good luck, how you guys score!
