    Here's the halibut to go with the striper in the previous post. Nick Nichols reports:"Fished Sunday in the bay. Caught some nice jacksmelt then went for Halibut. Both fish were caught down by Marshall. Greg's striper was 17 pounds. My Halibut was not big but legal (26”)"

    Mike Mack and Tim Nelson did an afternoon trip on Monday and landed these two keepers while trolling on the flats South of Hog Island. 

    I caught these three halibut this morning by 8:00 AM trolling around Marshall. No big ones but I missed a couple of other bites and shook a shorty. I heard the commercial salmon guys on the VHF complaining about all of the silvers that moved in, so if you're thinking about salmon fishing in the weather window we have this weekend and you aren't sure which one is which, look here. Those white gums will be expensive.

Way to go, Mike, way to go Nick and Willy! The halibut are in thick, seems like live bait, trolling and jigging are all paying off! Get out there folks before the bay becomes jammed with anchovies, and if ya follow the bait towards the back you should catch most anytime of the day😊
