Hog Island is still giving up quite a few halibut with some fish over 20 pounds caught and a couple of boats landing as many as four fish yesterday. In order to keep the halibut as large as possible, I engaged in a halibut feeding program where I allowed five fish to eat my bait but didn't hook them. You're welcome, by the way. Lots of live bait is available on the fishing grounds, with jacksmelt, jack mackerel, Pacific mackerel, sardines and shiner perch all present in the channel. No salmon landed here this week, and rumors of salmon being caught by the whistle buoy are just rumors. Rumors of albacore caught 10 miles from Bodega Head are outright lies. A few boats are going to run for some likely looking water 70+ nautical miles from Bodega this weekend and I hope they catch.
