The wind yesterday and today kept most of the boats off of the water and made it hard to put fish in the boats that did go out. The water is cooling off a bit, though, so maybe the salmon will be happier. There are a couple of derbies coming up in the next few weeks. On August 22 the 2 Duck Potluck and Halibut Derby will be held here. A week later on August 29 will be the 4th Merle Lawson  Memorial Salmon Derby. Entries can be made up to 8:00 AM on the morning of the respective derby.

  1. Tried the bar twice, turned around twice. Too lumpy for us. Tried for halibut all around Hog for nada. Went home with a limit of ccockles though.

  2. Somebody left the fan on. Good effort, but bad day.

  3. Are cockles safe to eat? I thought the shellfish quarantine was in effect.

  4. Mussels are quarantined but (as of now) cockles are not. Mussels are (apparently) toxin magnets. Here's the official information page: https://www.cdph.ca.gov/HealthInfo/environhealth/water/Pages/Shellfish.aspx
