Catching sturgeon from Verona to Chico Straits - eel and crawlers seem to be the best. Ghost shrimp, both cured and live, with a nightcrawler is also working well. Tisdale ramp is scheduled to close the afternoon of 3/5/16. 10 to 16 oz. needed from shore and 4 to 8 oz needed from a boat to keep your bait in place. Some stripers being caught on minnows, sardines, and pile worms.
