You eating these? Catch and release?
Any idea what they are?

Yeah I just go off the jetty with a high low rig and shrimp. So far I only have been eating the cabezons/rock fish, I tried a perch and it was a little salty/fishy for me lol

I throw most back because I catch a lot of small ones off the jetty, otherwise I keep a cabezon or rockfish every once in a while but generally just doing it for fun. These are a perch, cabezon, kelpfish, and rockfish

The second one looks like the sea robin I catch when I fish at my parents place in CT.

So is shore fishing a possibility in the bay? I'd love to get more into fishing (particularly for food) but just don't know where to go.

I do a lot of fishing off of piers in the bay since I sold my boat. Brisbane and the Dumbarton piers are my go to bay spots. I like the Capitola pier late night also.

Striper is possible! Perch pretty easy. Rockfishing off highway one is also very common but off the more rocky parts so like more between Half Moon Bay and Santa Cruz.

Dude makes me not even want to go on charters out here. Seriously a rip off for the the type of fish we have out here and charge for everything lol. It was 320 for just me and my nephew everything is covered reels, rods, tackel, fish filleting and also has a cooler full of beers sodas and drinks and snacks for 10 hrs and a chance for real monsters. We hooked up to Mahi, swordfish and man we hooked up to big marlin that never gave me a chance to put a crank on him just kept taking line until he came of the hook.

Yeah I just fish off the HMB jetty. You can catch perch, rockfish, cabezon, jacksmelt, halibut, lingcod, sculpin, monkey face eel, and can crab for dungeness/rock crab. Otherwise surf fishing for stripe bass / perch
