Here's a picture from today. It looks like salmon will still bite on a rough ocean. Landing them can be tough, and so can staying in the boat, but the biting, no problem. Good thing, because now they're calling for wind for the next three days. I guess it won't bother Mike Mack and Tim Nelson, since they figured out how to stay in the boat and catch fish. This fish was caught off of Tomales Point, as were quite a few other salmon this afternoon.

    Here's a similar Wednesday report from the Harvest Time team:"Best small craft advisory everrrr" Please note that the weather is supposed to be decidedly worse for the next few days.

   Mike Martin sent in this report from over the weekend:"Thought I’d send some pics in. The first one is from Sunday. That’s the boat owner, Pete Gobi’s 9 year old son with his first big salmon. We limited(6) out by 10;30am off Carmet(22 and 7 lines). Our friends went back there Monday morning and repeated so we went out Monday afternoon(launch 3:00 pm) and picked up the 2 small ones. Headed back in at 6:30 pm and decided to drop in at the Whistle and we promptly had a double and landed both of them and about 5 minutes later had another double. Landed the salmon and let a ling cod go. Back at the dock at 7:15 with the 5 salmon in the picture." Very nice report, and it gets better with a second message sent:"On a side note his son called us on Monday evening to check on us. We only had the two small ones at that point. His son said “that’s because you don’t know what you are doing” and we should have waited for him to get out of school so he could go with us.

Mike"  So now you know who to call for the real salmon info. What I want to know is, did he tell you to stop at the Whistle?
