Fishing San Mateo Coast Sat 10/31

Is anyone going out on Friday?

Is anyone going out on Friday?

Sorry for Thread jacking, I am sure there will be this is initially for Friday hookup... I apologized.. Thanks  

I am going to go on Saturday.  I plan to be on the north side (note, not the lighthouse side) of Pigeon Point road at 7 a.m.  PM me if you want/need my number.  I am leaving from SF, and can potentially carpool down.   

Sorry I can't do Friday.

Swell will be flat, and I can help you with the beach launch/land if you need it.  It is about a 1/2 mile paddle to the fish from the launch.  I plan on getting off the water by about 1 p.m.

All are welcome - let's go out with some fish...

Since it sounds like no one is doing Stump Beach anymore i'll definitely do San Mateo with you guys. What is the name of the beach? and what kinda bait do i need?

anyone headed out for friday? hamichijohn im not sure if im gonna do the mateo coast or northern coast but definently fishing tommorow.

What is the name of the beach? and what kinda bait do i need?

I would troll a 4' seal shaped lure in 30-50 FOW with 150/0 owner trebble rigged on a 5000# steel leader.

hmmmmm. well that would definitely be an interesting trip but i was hoping for something a little tame since it is my first time.

if i wanted a nice first day, i'd send a pm to bigjim or stoggie about going down to capitola.  that area will be fairly protected from the swell tomorrow and sat.

Well not REAL tame, just not sharks dragging me around for miles

Bean Hollow is not newbie friendly except on a few days. More often than not it is fairly technical with regard to the surf. All that said, if you don't mind swimming and maybe losing some tackle, go for it. I wouldn't worry about the sharks unless you have a red kayak or hobie of any color.

yeah i am pretty good at the kayak part. So i think i will just get out there and worst case scenario ill just paddle around and forgo the fishing till i feel comfortable.

Stick close to the others. If you decide to fish, you can use irons or swim baits or you can combine either of them with shrimp fly above. Good Luck, have fun, and above all be safe.

Dont worry you will be just fine, like any of us you wont know till you get there, hopefully the fishing gets better.. BE SAFE

You'll be fine - I'll make sure you get out ok, and get on the reefs.  Let's go - Saturday a.m.

Is anyone going out on Friday?

Yep. BH launch.
Saturday looks the best for WX, though. I might do both days...
