Today the Fish and Game Commission voted to open salmon season in our area on April 5 with a 24" minimum size limit and two fish daily bag limit. Two daily bag limits may be in your possession on land this year but don't try for a multi-day fishing permit- you can only come ashore with two fish. The fish won't be on the beach but, as of a few weeks ago, there was some pretty good signs with krill and birds showing out in 40 to 50 fathoms. There are still some Dungeness in the outer bay so it would probably be worth dropping a few pots on the way out. For those that would rather wait for the salmon to come to them, there's a few surfperch around to catch while you wait.
