Vance Staplin holds the only salmon landed at Lawson's Landing today. He and Ron Johnson trolled it up at Kehoe in 30 feet of water. It was their only salmon bite. There were a few salmon landed in the fleet but it wasn't too many. Rockcod took a bit of a beating today as the salmon really didn't want to play. In case you (foolishly) don't read the comments, here's one from today: "Caught one 15lb at McClures on Apex near bottom. Not a lot of catching today but handful of boats had one fish. Radio 30lb caught at tomales buoy. Lots of squid at top of ten mile. A afternoon bite between tomales buoy and the Estero with decent bait marked in area. Beats working or sitting at home sideline" Well said, Unknown. On the halibut side, well, not much happened. The couple of guys that tried for them didn't have any success. I've heard murmurs that would seem to indicate that there's more fish around than you hear about, and I believe that those murmurs are true. However, it would only seem to indicate that guys in the know are catching difficult fish and the rest of us, well, aren't. That's hardly news. 

   Here's the picture missing from yesterday's report. "Peter Kim and family with their 21 lb salmon caught at bird 75 otw 80  ft water" Peter's GPS must be blacked out in front of Bird with all of the trolling track lines. That fish is a result of skill and persistence.
