A few salmon today, very few halibut. Most boats that didn't include rockfish in their fishing got nothing. One commercial boat had 4 salmon, all big (30+) and said he broke off a few others. Popular opinion here is that, even though it is early August, it is classic late-season salmon fishing. Fish come through in waves, mostly in the shallow water (20-50'), moving north to south, usually near the bottom. Work the reefs, especially the drop-offs. Probably you won't catch, but if you are lucky (always important when fishing) you'll get a big'un. I personally like the late-season bite. If you don't catch, nobody blames you, you're not expected to catch. If you do catch, you're a hero. Who doesn't want to be a hero?
