Kevin Fogal sent me this report:"Willie my cousin Dimitri Fogal, and his wife Teresa caught these 3 keeper halibut along with several shaker halibut 10 miles down the bay today, all on Willie's secret bait! Must be a fluke!!" As Gage will tell you, if my advice works it must be a fluke. There were a few other halibut caught back in the shallows on anchovies, too. Everyone I spoke to with fish had been trolling. Those Flukes will work hooked on a slip rig like a baitfish but seem to work a little better when you use a bait threader needle to pull the line through the nose. Flashers and dodgers are a good idea, too, especially in the murky water back by Inverness. Surf fishermen, be aware that the surfperch were large and hungry this past weekend and we all hope for that trend to continue.
