It looks like that bait is used more for pocket gophers and ground
squirrels. The squirrels I have are of the tree squirrel variety (I
think). They run a great deal along the tops of my fences. I'm
wondering how that stuff would work if I put up some sort of feeder
near the top of my fence???

I live in California too!

Tree squirrels are protected, and apparently have a certain hunting season.
Ground squirrels on the other hand are open season. You can either buy one
of the special squirrel feeders. I just put a few pellets in a 4" wide pvc
pipe, since I don't have any pets or children in my yard, I just need to
protect it from turning into bird food.
