Gage won't go surf fishing, so I found some better fisherpeople to go give it a try. The answer is yes, there's surfperch out there and they are biting. They ended up with seven fish yesterday.

    This 18.5 pound halibut ate a live shiner perch just below Hog Island today. The wind and swell kept most of the boats in the bay today. While most people had a hard time finding a few keeper Dungeness there was one guy this morning that caught a limit before 10:00 using a snare just North of the pier.
