Kathleen Williams of Jackson caught this 22 pound salmon while mooching off of Elephant Rock in 90 feet of water. There were a number of other fish caught yesterday, from just south of Bodega Head to the Keyholes in 50 to 90 feet of water. There were a couple of small flurries of action but it was mostly a grind for maybe a fish. The moochers seemed to do a little better on average than the trollers but it was very possible to get skunked no matter what you were doing. The halibut bite in the bay continued on, just slower. Most of halibut have been 22" to 30" but there's been a few in the teens and 20s weighed in. There was even a 27" halibut caught off of the beach yesterday. You're still more likely to catch surfperch from shore, but a striper or halibut could happen.
