Pittsburg is renowned for its excellent striped bass fishing, with many trophy-sized catches reported throughout the year.

Largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, and catfish are abundant in the nearby lakes and reservoirs, offering varied fishing experiences for all skill levels.
Popular fishing spots include the San Joaquín River Delta, Riverview Park, and the Pittsburg Pier, which extends 135 feet into prime fishing territory. The pier area features a warm water outlet that attracts a variety of fish species.
