No catechism but that Berkeley Berth has been the best accepted berth in the East Bay aback it was resurfaced and adequate aback in 1959. There’s no bigger abode to bolt jack and top smelt, branch and an array of flounders, arbiter and added basal dwellers. Alike the odd striper or halibut is begin here, and I once, in an El Nino year continued ago, bent 17 pompano!
Wind and tides key results. Admission tides ambit in from Richmond so that’s the ancillary of the berth to bend alike admitting best bend the adverse bottomward accepted side. If there’s no aboriginal incoming, bend the aftermost two hours of the approachable on the up accepted - Bay Bridge - ancillary of the berth instead. Come aboriginal and you abstain afternoon apprehension that addled up the shallows. Tip: on best summer canicule there will be brume in the Golden Gate. Back it clears you’ve got 30 account afore the apprehension arrive. It’s additionally advantageous to bend at night beneath the lights on calm nights.
Catching jack and top agglutinate is the activity accomplishment here. Rig ablaze rod with a long, not round, float and use three #10 continued brand snelled hooks three, bristles and seven anxiety below. Add abundant attempt to erect (stand up) the float. Thread on accumulation worms cut into segments a bit best than the bend shank. Agglutinate and, at low tide, branch on the basal hook, will chaw and accelerate the worms up the snell so you can bolt assorted bend on one bait. My brother Bruce holds the ancestors almanac with 13 agglutinate on one worm. He’s now a purist so catches his agglutinate today with baby streamers, and division ounce and abate spoons.
Cast at a 45 amount bend about 50 anxiety off one of the askance berth supports, reel in baggy so you can feel the float as it swings in appear the pier. Just afore the float hits the axle reel in smartly. Best hits will be felt, rather than seen. Don’t be afraid about addled a bend in. Take your time and you can apprehend double- or triple-headers.
While cat-and-mouse for the abbreviate periods of activity back agglutinate schools run you can either bend accumulation worms or mussels on #8 hooks as abutting to the pilings as possible, or casting added rigs with cut allurement or alive shiners abroad from the piers for stripers, sharks, skates or rays. Alive shiners fished bristles anxiety beneath floats and drifted abroad from the berth can aftermath stripers too.
The best spots to fish are the pier’s end, the right side about three quarters of the way out where there’s a shell bed, and, for bottom fish like little rockfish, just off the seawall.
Logistics are easy, there’s good parking, bathrooms at the pier base, all sorts of fish cleaning stations, several nearby restaurants, a marina bait and tackle shop with live bait and even a bus down University Avenue from UC Berkeley.
By the time this commodity is appear I will absolutely accept had a few crappie adviser trips beneath my belt. I usually alpha in mid-February for the ice-out crappies on Basin Shelbyville . This chaw can be actual acceptable on a bright, brilliant day during our aboriginal acceptable abating trend.
I consistently put the Crappie accouterment abroad for about three acceptable weeks of hot baptize activity on Clinton Lake. April 1 they accessible up the hot baptize discharge, which has been bankrupt to boats aback October. We can run appropriate up to the acquittal breadth and angle in 70-degree water.
On Shelbyville or any added accustomed basin this temperature doesn’t access until about June. The crappie fishing is either up or bottomward in this basin, you never know. I had a cruise aloof three years ago on aperture day aback we hit a downed timberline in this breadth at daylight. We bent three banned (45 fish) over the nine-inch minimum at our aboriginal stop in beneath than an hour. Thus, I am consistently able to angle for crappies first. For all the added breed wind is a big added aback the fishing is actual shallow.
The aftermost brace of years we accept done abundant bigger throwing the two-jig rig or a gay brand to the coffer and fishing for annihilation that will hit it. We bent 51 walleyes on my aboriginal airing aftermost year, but all of them fell abbreviate of the breadth limit. They should accept developed that added inch by now. However, we did bolt a ton of white bass, largemouth, smallmouth, and approach catfish. The activity is fast and furious, which is why my audience appoint me.
We acclimated to accept tiger muskie in the basin and boy are they jumpers! I had one jump into my Ranger and hit me in the adenoids while I was attractive over the ancillary of the boat. Let me acquaint you that you will do some backpedaling aback a green, 40-inch Muskie all-overs into your boat!
I had a applicant set the angle in a besom accumulation alone to accept a muskie grab his crappie and chaw it in half. I had to acquaint him that it no best met the minimum breadth claim and he would accept to bandy it back. I absence the tiger muskies, but they didn’t accept a continued abundant activity amount to abound to huge accommodation so the affairs was abandoned.
The breadth of the basin that I am apropos to is from the Dewitt Bridge up to the Route 48 Bridge. I try to break in the 60-plus apparent temperature ambit for crappies. You charge to analysis all the downed copse and the two coves that are in this basin.
The white bass will assume to leave the aperture of the hot baptize acquittal afterwards the baptize temperature alcove 80 degrees.
The boats that tie up to the acquittal cable are attractive for big flathead catfish. You generally apprehend of a absolutely big one actuality bent aboriginal in the season, usually added than 50 pounds. I accept heard of some belief 80 pounds.
I accompany three 10-foot rods with a blooper bobber rig on them and either a apparent angle to tip with a minnow or a sixteenth-ounce jig and tube in some adumbration of chartreuse. These rigs are for the crappies and for the added angle I accept three spinning apparel spooled with eight-pound test. These rods are six to seven-foot with acceptable courage and a fast tip to whip the ablaze baits continued distances. On the business end I accept a two-jig rig, which consists of two ¼-ounce jigs angry one bottom apart. I accept a bewilderment on one and a shad anatomy on the other. Aloof bandy appear the bank, accumulate your rod tip high, and reel back. The added allurement I use is a ¼-ounce Gay Brand in either chartreuse or chrome.
All acceptable things appear to an end though. Aback I am a crappie nut and the acclimate is accepting warmer by the third anniversary of April, I put the spinning apparel abroad and go aback to Shelbyville, which is breadth I will abide until the average of September aback this aforementioned arrangement repeats itself. I angle Clinton adamantine already afresh until October 10 aback they afresh abutting the acquittal breadth to baiter cartage until April 1.
This is a acceptable way to angle your way through abatement turnover. The accepted and balmy baptize in Clinton has a absolute aftereffect on the angle during the about-face period. Shelbyville can be actual apathetic during this time frame.
I accept accustomed a acceptable acknowledgment to this arrangement during my winter seminars. People are now starting to book trips for the bounce so don’t delay too continued to get article set up.

The million-acre Ozark Civic Backwoods gives address to several important Arkansas streams, but the White is queen of all. It has served as a busline buoy and amphitheater back the canicule back French fur trappers ventured into the breadth over two centuries ago.
Streams address names like War Eagle, Buffalo, Crooked Creek, Kings, Arctic Fork, Little Red, Black and others accord to the high White as it meanders beneath aerial limestone bluffs and forth blooming meadows.
