Hei

Thanks, I'll check that out!

Thanks for the recs! @Chefster — my problem with these larger reservoirs is that I don't really know what I should be doing to increase my chances of finding fish. I do my best to look for cover or structure as well. Not sure how long I should spend in any given area before moving on to somewhere else. With these big rocky reservoirs we have down here, everything kind of looks samey as well (at least to me).

Thanks for the warm welcome! @Caliyak — wish I had access to a boat or kayak, but I don't have the space to store one and I don't know anyone that fishes. The club I found isn't being terribly responsive, but I may show up to a meeting. Otherwise, hopefully I can meet some folks out here who fish around the Bay Area!

Hey everyone! I'm a new bass fisherman (just started fishing in general this season) and former lurker here on these forums living in the Bay Area (SF/Santa Clara. I was wondering if any users on the board here know of any clubs or other resources for someone just starting out and trying to learn what to do. Very few of my friends fish, so I was hoping to find some other folks who wouldn't mind a newbie tagging along. I've been pretty persistent up to this point, but have been skunked about 12x in a row so I figured that it's about time I try and figure out how to more consistently improve. Thanks in advance!
