Rockfish, halibut. Same story, different day. Tom Carter and family scored one halibut on the bar and fed a few others, Mike Gibson of Lodi guided his friend to two halibut, lost one, fed a few others. Other folks who I don't know their names caught fish on the bar today as well, 0-3 fish per boat. Live jacksmelt was the ticket, alhough at least one 24# halibut came on a bucktail this weekend. Rockfish are biting, get 'em while you can. Heard a rumor of salmon being caught here but can't confirm it. Heard a rumor of salmon north moving this way, hope to confirm it, personally if possible. For sure, though, if you want some white meat for the dinner table, now is the time.

those halibut coming from the bay i guess? please holler if you hear of those pink fish coming south. any paltry excuse to go drag some bait or plastic once more before i pickle the ole sakonnet would be much appreciated. wouldn't kick any white meat out of the boat either, but i'm suffering from a serious season of pink deficiency since june, and my whaler is a solid 3'-5' short for the albacore. no remedy for that in sight other than an invitation from another captain [no, i'm not proud ... i'll beg].

tight lines to any of you who still have the faith.
