The Larssons landed this 17 pound lingcod which they caught by mooching at the Trees. There were a few salmon mooched up there as well in 60 to 80 feet of water. 

Scott and Jim Alexander and Nick Bauer are holding up 75 pounds of salmon they caught trolling and mooching mostly off of McClure's Beach. The fish are still coming from Bird down to Abbott's Lagoon, as are lots of jellyfish. The jellies seem to denser in some places more than others, and finding a less dense area seems to be key to putting fish in the box. Some places they're so thick you can barely mooch. The bar produced no halibut for the morning shift of fishermen but Frank Green got a nice view of a cruising mighty whitey. The dorsal was over a foot high and visible for half of a minute. It's time for the divers to really earn their halibut. One boat has caught four halibut in two days by jigging white bucktails back by Hog Island.
