Largemouth Bass
Targeting largemouth bass near Menlo Park means exploring the sloughs and backwaters connected to the San Francisco Bay Delta. While not a traditional bass hotbed, these tidal influenced areas offer unique opportunities. Focus on areas where freshwater mixes with the salt, especially near creek mouths and flooded vegetation. Spring is prime time, as bass move into shallower areas to spawn. Fall can also be productive as they fatten up for winter. Check tide charts before you go; a moving tide is crucial for triggering strikes. Shore access is limited, so a small boat or kayak is a huge advantage. Try throwing swimbaits or lipless crankbaits along weed lines, or flip jigs into heavy cover. Be aware of the salinity levels, as bass prefer slightly fresher water, especially during spawning season. The Delta bass population is resilient, but practicing catch and release helps maintain this urban fishery.
