Thanks for all the welcomes. I'm starting out working local lakes / rivers for now and plan to try out the bay when it gets warmer again.

I'm over in Sebastopol, lately been going to Lake Hennessey, trying to get out to Berryessa (never been).  Someone on the forum recommended Hennessey, I had never heard of it until last month. Only 20 mins from my work, great to pop out at lunch for an hour.  Haven't been on a weekend though. 
I'd rather be swinging...
