     It was a pretty slow day for most of the fishermen today. Kevin Fujimoto of Amador County had a mostly slow day except for his 20 pound salmon and 20 pound thresher. Those happened in the first hour and then after that, boredom. There were a few other success stories (Paul Costa of Sacramento caught a limit of salmon to 20 pounds) but mostly it was tales of trolling for nothing more than a few sublegal halibut. Luckily the rockfish were still biting. I heard a couple of local (sorta) albacore stories today. One was that a good number of large albies were caught at the Gumdrop. Another story was that two albacore were caught incidentally while rockfishing at the Farallones. I really like the second story.
