paradise yr parking pass??????

Debating whether its worth getting Paradise annual pass.
For you guys who fish there a lot....is the fishing good there other than the summer time when the butts are in? ie. what do you fish for during other parts of year.?


I may go  this wed. and it will be my 3rd time this month..I like the park but not sure how many more times I will come back when the butts are gone.

thanks

The pass is $75 and it's good for 1 year from the month you bought it.  For example, if you by it next week on Wed 07/29/09, it will be good until 07/31/10, but if you buy it on August 1st, it's good until August 31st of next year (you got 13 months instead of 12)    Not a bad deal!

As far as fishing there, you can catches Stugeon, Striper, Halibut, Bat Ray, Dogfish, Leopard Shark, and baitfish too.

thanks sonny,

so halibuts pretty much only in summer months there right?

Greetings,I fish there year round.I do well on sturgeon in winter,stripers and halis in spring and  various fish through out,see you out there,Gabe.

The pass is also good for Miller Park in Tomales and Black Point on the Petaluma River. I have a pass and it has already paid for itself on Paradise trips alone....but it'll also get mad use at Black Point come sturgeon season.

Pass is good at McNear's Beach in San Rafael (on the way to China Camp) as well.  Possible alternative launch site for that area, plus the pier if they ever get it fixed!

one of the park ranger guys said mcnear's pier should be fixed in the not too distant furture, within the next few years I think he said.

thanks guys..
guess I will throw down the big coin on wed for the pass ..or maybe wait till sept 1 to get the extra month.

The pass will be good for all Marin County parks.  Here is a map for these parks:
