   All along the Bay Area coast, you can catch surf perch, striped bass, dungeness crabs, and many more. Pacifica Pier and Half Moon Bay jetty are popular spots that doesn't require a license, but please make sure to read up on CDFW regulations.

   I would highly recommend Kirk Lombard's "The Sea Forager's Guide to the Northern California Coast" It details a lot of the species of fish around the bay area, and also non fish species that are foraged like clams and seaweed.

   Here's a summary of regulations for the Coastal waters of the Bay Area https://www.wildlife.ca.gov/Fishing/Ocean/Regulations/Fishin...

   I second the suggestion for Kirk Lombard's "The Sea Forager's Guide to the Northern California Coast". One of the most entertaining books I've read in awhile.

   Kirk also does tours, sells what he catches and has an entertaining youtube channel.

   For those in the Bay Area - Kirk Lombard author of The Sea Forager's Guide to the Northern California Coast (at least used to) do some guided tours harvesting flora and fauna of the Norcal coast. Enjoyable and informative. Here's the book
