Tom McHale caught this 30 pound white sea bass in 70 feet of water while trolling McClure's for salmon. The wind eased up for the morning today and some salmon came over the rails for many of the boats that took a chance. The salmon ranged from Bodega Head to Elephant at least. There were short flurries of action in 60 to 80 feet of water. Moochers and trollers both caught fish. We fished McClure's and saw several fish landed but only one salmon in on our boat.

Hey there, we're heading over camping next week and was wondering if any surf perch are being caught or if they are worth targeting this time of year. Any info would be greatly appreciated, thanks

There are some surfperch being caught off the beach right now. There's an abundance of sand crabs this year and the perch (and occasionally the stripers) have been feeding on them near shore. There's also been at least five halibut(!) caught off of the beach so far this year, so one never knows...
