Today there was nice weather in the morning but the salmon bite didn't follow. The mouth looked good for halibut but the sea picked up and the bar had an occasional breaker all the way across every once in a while by the afternoon. Offshore, the albacore action was great with flat water until at least 2:00 PM and lots of fish scattered across a wide area west of the north Farallon. I ran to 37° 45' and 123° 20', put lines in the water at 8:30 and ended up with 15 tuna, most in the 20 pound plus range, by 11:00. There wasn't room for more so we came home.
