   The rockfishing was slow over the weekend for the couple of boats that ventured out. There were some halibut caught in the bay but nothing this side of Tom's Point (at least that I heard of). It sounded like dead drifted bait was outfishing the live bait, a fact that the recently arrived shiner perch at the pier really wanted me to tell you. A few boats did okay on the Dungeness inside the bay but for the most part red crab were for dinner. I heard of a few surfperch caught but my go-to guy didn't try so I can't say of it was good or bad. Of course, no abalone diving this year and probably none for a while. If you're looking to get wet, a good place to do it would be at one of the urchin clean-ups. Here's a link to the news of the last one: http://www.mendocinobeacon.com/general-news/20180531/divers-make-a-day-of-it-urchin-clean-up-addresses-kelp-ab-die-off  It looks like the next clean-up will be at Albion Cove on July 21-22.
