Sharing tips and tricks to land your personal best, from rigging gear to knowing where to find fish and game. From fishing monster bass, striper, crab, steelhead, salmon, crappie, trout and kokanee to air rifle hunting coyote, squirrel, duck, goose, turkey and deer, I’ll teach you how to find, catch and even cook ‘em. Learn how tidal waters and boat positioning can make or break your trip. Teaming with videographer, editor and producer Denise Loo, we’ll fish the Delta, lakes and the ocean.
I’ve fished multi-species my whole life and in over a hundred tournaments, often placing in the top ten. Working in the tackle industry, giving seminars, and designing rods and swimbaits, I’ve thrown just about everything. I know what works and, more importantly, what doesn’t...so you don’t waste your money. Co-starring in Fun Fishing TV and having owned restaurants, I enjoy catch and cook. I just love everything about the sports of fishing and hunting and hope to share my passion with you!

U Had Me @ Alaska Fong!
Thanks Alan! What tide do you like flipping wood and anything other than brush hogs as bait? Any thoughts on low tide for striper?
Yes halibut central…
What happened to the American river report 😂
Great report and insights as always Alan. Thanks for the Blind Squirrel Channel shout out!
Thanks for sharing your videos and your Reports 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🐋🐋🐬🐬🎣🎣🎣🐳🐳🐟🐟🐠🐠🐠👍👍👍👍👍👍
Went out last week with Captain sean and we all caught our limit around Alcatraz good times
Nice its been a good year for halibuts
You can’t fish those docks in a Tourment well not next to launch area
If tournament launches out of that marina it is usually off limits. But the other marinas on the lake are open
Name of lure ur using and anything similar i can buy
Swimbaits are sudden impact 5" pearl, jigheads are Bladerunner striper special 1/2oz 4/0 hook by Brian Willits. and VMC boxer 1/2oz jighead
Caught a 23" & a 26" striper out at limantour beach at point Reyes while fishing from shore with size 4 baitholder hooks & 2" camo gulp worms one hot summer day. Water was very clear & surf was very calm both hit about an hour b4 high tide.
Nice and in the summer months the stripers head out to the beaches usually south of the golden gate bridge. In the fall they come up into the Rio Vista area for the winter.
Hi Alan, Im not getting much luck fishing from SF pier. I will have a car for few days next week. Can you please give me a couple of pointers where to go/drive to fish from a shore in bay area or around SF? Maybe some lake? And what is target fish? Striper or halibut or salmon would be awesome. I would really apreciate the advice. Thank you! Andrew
Sorry I've been in Alaska the last week and haven't heard about local fishing. I'll know more in a few days. Best bet might be striper fishing from the bank around Sherman Island. Friends are catching surf perch around the corner golden gate bridge.
Hi Alan, could you recommend the rod and reel for catching king in the river, like Samish river in Washington. I am afraid my medium light spinning set up is not strong enough to fight those 20 pounder in that shoulder to shoulder combat style fishing. Thank you very much.
You'll probably need a 81/2' to 10' med action rod. Line ratting 10-20# for beads or spinners.
@@AlanFong thank you very much Alan.
Hey Alan, nice content as always. I'm really committed to going Punching on the Delta could you recommend a really good rod .
I usually take couple rods for punching, one heavy 8' with a 2oz tungsen weight and a 7'6" heavy with a 1oz tungsen. Depending on how dense the cover is to get it to fall thru.
Nice video, thanks for the delta report and locations. I live in Sacramento so ill try the port this fall and winter. Thank you for that. Btw you were photo bombed. Cute
Port is full of stripers right now! Bladerunner Rick has been spooning a lot of nice stripers
@@AlanFong what kind of spoons. How about a cripple back rapala. I usually soak anchovies. But if that many I will try spoons. I need to go to Sacramento tackle in Northgate. He will sale me the right one. Thanks again for your fishing updates. I want to fish for catfish at lake berryessa too. I see videos from California acauduct. Big cats
Thanks
No problem
Hey Alan, thanks for sharing striper activity once they enter our Delta system... great video as usual!
Any time! There moving into the delta a little early this year
😊👍
😊
The blind squirrel was right behind you. Thanks for the reports!
He is a good guy and I'm helping him out lol
Good luck in AK. Watch out for those big grizzlies. 😂
I took group twenty guys and we just got back black cod limits, halibuts and lots silver salmon hooking four at a time! I posted on my facebook page
@@AlanFong I saw the pics. You guys did great and everyone was all smiles!
Heard anything going on in susuin or montezuma ?
No but I bet the stripers are there!
From the mountains 2 the sea…Fong’s House! is the place to 🐝 Luv Ya Fer Dat Kid!
Hey Alan I don't think you mentioned rock fishing this week but I'm pretty sure guys are after them when weather permits.. I was thinking about hitting Rittinburg bank this weekend and my question is do you know where they catch them sand dabs on the way to rock fishing grounds.. Thanks again for the report.
Can't remember but it's wide open. If your going out of Bodega when you get in 250-300ft water on the sandy areas you can catch lots sand dabs. When I go out bottom fishing at Rittinburg in 350 ft I catch lots lings on 8" swimbaits with a 16oz jighead whatever it takes to keep on the bottom. Or catch the small rock fish n catch the hitch hiking lings. I also use iron bars and catch
Thanks for sharing your video and your Reports 👍👍👍👍🦈🦈🦈🦈🐬🐬🐬🐬🎣🎣🐟🐟🐟🐟🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for watching!
Sablefish are in the Pacific and the Atlantic
Yes there are different species of the black cod. The ones in Alaska are bigger in size and taste different.
Great content. The cable holders on the side of the mount have zip tie slots in them to allow you to capture the cable so it doesn't come out on its own.
Thanks for the info!
Thanks Alan! Trying to figure out how to fish a low incoming tide for bass and or stripers. What type of areas would you suggest targeting during the next week or so?
On a low incoming tide now I go after the stripers. I target flat areas where the current is pushing into with sparse grass. Then when the water gets higher I'll switch to the bass and it depends where I'm at. Lately I'm out in Collinsville area to Pittsburg so I'm just targeting stripers.
This guy is awesome I would pay to go out for a day and soak up some Knowledge
Look on my site at info@alanfongoutdoors.com and look under bookings as I do consulting on the water
Yer still launching out of hogback after what happened to yer truck? I used to launch there all the time but so often I would see broken glass and after what happened to you, I don't go there anymore.
Yes I'm still launching there. The county is there on weekends and are charging to get in now. If your early you don't have to pay. There hasn't been any problems but last week a guy fished all night and they broke into his truck at night.
I can't believe you park your Truck over there with out having issues with out ppl breaking into it!
No problems there now as the county cleaned up the pay booth and are there during the weekends charging. They keep that place very clean and the ramp dock is always clean.
Who are the guides that have been catching leopard sharks? I’d like to give them a call
Jay Lopes, Ricky Acosta and Steve Mitchell you can google them as it's been on fire.
What colors do you use on cloudy days? Can you spoon at night?
When spooning I use either gold or dark green on cloudy days and early mornings. Yes you can spoon at night and use a dark color
Just found your channel
I've made lots videos and hope there helpful
@@AlanFong do you throw a spoon at night or on cloudy days?
Do you spoon during transition time
Yes the best time is in the fall when the shad ball up and move to the major creek channels to spawn
Alan you have become a norcal treasure 1 of the legends moving forward for your contributions to the fishing community here to me !!!
Thanks and just trying to help others learn what took me years to figure out.
You should stop using the suoer bright filming mode. Have to watch this with my brightness all the way down.
Sorry but nobody has said anything and my reports are done on my I Phone
@@AlanFong i think you have it on the (HDR) setting that is why the footage is really bright.
Thanks!
Welcome! n thanks
Hi Alan, did you use bait runner spoon for stripers. How heavy did you use?
Yes I mostly use bladerunner 13/4 and 2 oz spoons. I do make my own also
😊
What boat ramp is that? I normally go out of arrowhead.
This is Hogback not far from Arrowhead, its county park well kept
Yussir‼️
Been watching you for over 30 years. Where are some areas that you can fish for chappies from the bank?
Crappie
Not a lot of places but in delta around marinas off Eight Mile rd, Whiskey Slough usually in the fall and winter best. Lakes Amador, Berryessa n Camanche around the marinas
Thanks Been Wait N Alan.
Wondering if you’ve heard anything about Lake Spaulding? Supposedly stocked landlocked kings the past 2-3years. I spent 4hrs targeting them a couple weeks back. Skunked. Marked a Few fish at the right depths but who knows, they could’ve been trout. Do you know if in fact they’re putting king in there??
I have the plants and Spaulding has been planted 2022 24,999 and 2023 25,000 so it should be good
Sturgeon reopens to catch and release only on October 1st.
ok good
where do you launch when fishing out of liberty island?
That looks like hog island boat ramp
Hogback Island
Be careful there’s been plenty of smash AND grabs there
Thanks for your Reports and your time congratulation on your fishing 🎣 adventures 🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣🐋🐋🐋🐋🐋🐋🐋🙏🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
