Sun and Moon Times

The sun will be at it's highest point at . Today we have 14:45 hours of daylight. For shallow water fishing the twilight periods are often the most productive fishing times, especially on days when a major or minor time will coincide with twilight. In low light conditions predators have better cover for their ambush and often hunt in shallow water.

We can compare the current moon distance to it's minimum and maximum distance from earth and express that as proximity. A high proximity means the moon is closer to earth. At 50% it would be at it's mean distance. A high proximity causes big tides, currents and has a direct effect on increased bite times. A proximity greater than 90% indicates a super moon.

For fishing, stronger tides are often favourable as they cause stronger currents and more motion on the sea bed. The above tidal coefficients give us an indication of how strong the tides are compared to their average. A value over 90 indicates very strong tides, known as spring tides. A low value indicates weak tides, known as neap tides. The tidal coefficient can range from 20 to 120 with a mean value of 70. A higher number usually indicates better fishing.

7 Day Fishing Weather

The weather plays an important role in fishing. Wind strenght and direction often determine where you can fish and where fish might be holding. Although high pressure is usually good for fishing, steep pressure changes often trigger feeding frenzies and are great times for fishing. Of course temperature has also a strong effect on fishing and comfort on the water. So make sure to cross check the weather forecast with the solunar fishing times to determine the best times to go fishing.

Fishing Overview Fairfield

Fishing near Fairfield, CA centers on the unique mix of brackish tidal marsh, big reservoirs, and tailwater streams within a short drive. Suisun Marsh, the lower Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, Lake Berryessa, and Putah Creek give Fairfield anglers options for striped bass, sturgeon, bass, catfish, and trout almost year-round. The key is matching your tactics to water type and seasonal movements.

Seasonal patterns around Fairfield are driven by water temperature and flows. In spring, striped bass and sturgeon push into the bays, sloughs, and channels of Suisun Marsh and the western Delta. This is prime time for bait fishing in the sloughs and casting swimbaits or lipless cranks in current seams. Lake Berryessa warms earlier than many mountain reservoirs, kicking off a strong prespawn and spawn bite for largemouth, smallmouth, and spotted bass from March through May. Summer brings consistent night fishing for catfish in the marsh sloughs and Berryessa coves, plus early-morning topwater bass action. Fall is a peak multi-species period: stripers feed aggressively along channel edges, shad show up in local rivers, and Berryessa bass and trout feed heavily ahead of winter. Winter fishing can still be productive by downsizing baits, slowing presentations, and focusing on deeper holding areas.

Habitat types differ sharply within the Fairfield fishing radius. Suisun Marsh and adjacent Delta waters are a maze of tidal sloughs, tule edges, rock banks, and deep channels. These hold stripers, sturgeon, catfish, and seasonal schools of baitfish. Look for current breaks, bends, junctions of sloughs, and any riprap or manmade structure. At Lake Berryessa, steep rocky banks, submerged points, and creek arms offer classic reservoir structure for bass and trout. Focus on main-lake points, transition banks, and the first significant drop-offs from shore. Putah Creek below the dam is a cold, clear tailwater supporting wild trout; here, depth changes, boulder pockets, and seams behind structure are key holding lies.

Common techniques depend on your target. For striped bass around Suisun Marsh and the Delta, drifting or soaking cut bait (anchovies, sardines, or shad) on fish-finder rigs along channel edges is reliable, while casting soft-plastic swimbaits, jerkbaits, or bucktail jigs along tule walls and current breaks produces active fish. Sturgeon anglers typically anchor on deep channel ledges and present salmon roe, eel, or specialized sturgeon baits on heavy gear. Catfish respond well to chicken liver, cut mackerel, or prepared baits fished on sliding sinker rigs near the bottom in sloughs and Berryessa coves, especially during warm evenings.

For bass at Lake Berryessa, finesse plastics on drop-shot, ned rigs, and shaky heads excel during clear, high-pressure conditions, while spinnerbaits, crankbaits, and walking topwaters shine on windy days or low-light periods. During the spawn, sight-fishing in protected coves and pockets can be effective; in summer, target deeper points, rock piles, and offshore structure with jigs and deep-diving crankbaits. Trout and landlocked salmon anglers at Berryessa often troll spoons, spinners, and small plugs at varying depths, using downriggers or lead-core to stay in the strike zone.

Practical tactical tips: Watch the tides for Suisun Marsh and Delta fishing; moving water usually triggers striper and sturgeon bites, with the start of the incoming or outgoing often best. Use your electronics or simple depth awareness to position baits right on drop-offs and channel edges. In Berryessa’s clear water, downsize line to get more bites—6–10 lb fluorocarbon for finesse bass techniques and light leaders for trout trolling can make a noticeable difference. On hot days, focus your efforts at dawn, dusk, or after dark and target shade lines, deeper structure, and any inflowing water. By rotating between tidal sloughs, big-reservoir structure, and tailwater currents, Fairfield anglers can stay on fish throughout the year.
