If you just want to have some fun try fishing for sharks and bat rays in Tomales Bay.  I've done best down near Marshall.  Fishing with squid on the anchor with a sturgeon type wire leader and sliding sinker setup. I just linked up a map of where I go, I've had days there where I could not put the pole down, and days where I didn't catch a thing.  There's not much current this far back from the mouth of the bay so anchoring and fishing is somtimes a chore as the yak just drifts around instead of staying straight .  Best day was 7 almost identical leopards, my avatar pic is one of them. In that spot besides leopards there are 7 gill shark with very sharp teeth, (they can grow to 10 ft but my best was a little over 5 ft), bat rays with a dangerous spine at the base of their tail, spiny dogfish with nasty spines in front of each fin, smooth hound sharks, a possible halibut if you want to drift around awhile, and probably the possibility of other interesting things.  Can you tell? I like that spot, especially in the fall when it's almost pure seawater.

Starting to get that Halibut fever... won't be long

There are no fish in there, go somewhere else 

There aren't any when I'm fishing there
