    Lucas Bair of Loomis caught this 20 pound striper on Friday. His group of fishermen caught halibut as well. I didn't hear where these fish came from specifically but most of the halibut and stripers were caught starting about a mile South of Hog Island. 

    There's always a few exceptions. This halibut, along with another, was caught on the North side of Hog Island on a live anchovy. The ocean water has warmed up a bit and there's a few halibut biting on the "ocean " side of the temperature break near Hog Island, as well as a few showing up off of the ocean beaches for trollers. Salmon activity has been mostly confined to right off of Point Reyes and along the continental shelf drop-off (the edge of the world) although with the water temps increasing and the anchovy schools starting to assemble closer to shore the salmon will likely follow.
