Margo Cooper of Roseville caught this 28 pound striper today. We're all pretty happy she didn't get pulled over the side by the fish. It was the only bite of the day for her and her husband but they both seemed pretty happy even so. The fish bit a live anchovy as the Coopers were unable to catch any jacksmelt for bait. There weren't many halibut caught today except for Swampy's boat, but that is to be expected. The salmon bite at Carmet completely died today. It could come back tomorrow or the fish could have moved and unfortunately, there's only one way to find out. It's possible the salmon were waiting for sunrise today but that never really happened.

    These two photos are from my cousin, Chris Lawson, who took his commercial boat down to Sausalito today to haul it out. The pictures were taken at 11:00 AM. I realize it looked this way over most of California today, but damn. <Insert your reference to the Revelation of Saint John here>
