Stuff happened this weekend but I'm only aware of a tiny bit of it. Most importantly, on Sunday a couple of salmon were caught in 250 feet of water off of Bird. The water is cold and clear and devoid of most life, but, there's a few salmon out there. Weight in the lowest double digits. The fish came shallow on the wire, 40ish feet. The two fish I heard of are a good sign but not indicative of a wide open bite. But hey, there's a few fish around. If this wind stays away for a week or more then booyah, fish in the Outer Bay. Get excited then. Don't worry, I'll let you know in a poorly worded, even more poorly spelled post.

    There are halibut in the bay, not big ones, but keepers are always welcome on my boat. The Gage and I gave it a shot on Sunday evening for three keepers (and one 22ish" fish returned) so there's a few fish out there. Heck, I even caught one. Gage was concerned as he had no recollection of one of my rods bouncing in that manner. Once I convinced him that I had a fish on his worry eased. Different colored hootchies caught them all.
