I know, I know, another picture of lights. The point is, there's more of them. Now, either they're doing a lot of 24 hour road construction out in 300' of water (doubtful) or there's a lot of commercial salmon boats working the deep. Gage's connection at the Tides says they've already had several thousand pounds of salmon landed there. Some of those fish may have come from down South but most of them are from up here. The fact that the number of boats here is increasing would indicate that the fish are currently in. The weather forecast doesn't completely suck for Saturday, so, game on. Also, hear that the shortbelly rockfish are back, which, if true, would indicate a bite ate Bodega Reef just South of the MLPA. That's a lot closer than 300 feet. It would be worth a look, as nobody wants to run past fish to find fish. Just because I do it doesn't mean you should. Also, separately, my prediction for albacore is that they'll be here again this year but be kinda far. What forecasting tool do I use, you ask? Gas prices. The higher they get the likelier the chance of tuna. We crossed the $4.00 mark at Costco, so chances are good for a slaughter of both tuna and credit ratings.

Willy dumb question but am going to ask anyway is there Goin to be green label herring available in your store by end of July thanks
Excuse me for being ignorant, what's MLPA ?
It's not a dumb question, but one without a decent answer. I hope? My bait guy hasn't got any and, while hopeful, isn't sure when he'll get it. I just scored three cases of expensive tray anchovy and I don't know how long it will last.
MLPA stands for Marine Life Protection Act which created the Marine Protected Areas, some of which you can't fish in and some you can but only for certain things in certain ways. Simple. Here's a map of our local ones: https://nrm.dfg.ca.gov/FileHandler.ashx?DocumentID=117222&inline Red is no fishing. Blue means you can troll for salmon but not mooch and rockfish are verboten.
Thanks for the reply apparently green label herring are on the endangered species list none to be had from here to Canada did not this till yesterday
