After a slow day of fishing on Sunday, Mike Mack and Spinner felt like they had to get even yesterday morning. "" Thanks for showing us how it's done. If it any more consolation, Frank got shut out yesterday. It appears that the bar will reward one boat per day. It's great when it's your day but not so awesome when you're the guy not catching but watching somebody else hook fish faster than they can land 'em. Mike was both guys in two days. He knows.

    The halibut fishing has been, as the above story relates, good and bad. Somebody is killing them and others can't get bit. It seems like there's fish scattered all around but you need to move around and try a lot of drifts to find the fish that you can catch. Jigs are catching a few but live bait, mostly jacksmelt, are catching the vast majority of halibut. 

    Tom Brodsky and crew landed three albacore out of here today. They tried about ten miles southwest of Cordell, somewhere near the place that the Reel Magic out of Bodega Bay caught eleven tuna yesterday. Other radio and internet reports were similar, a few fish or even none at all. There's a few tuna to be scratched up out there, but it seems like the good catching is, as usual, up at Fort Bragg. One boat there plugged the boat be 11:00 AM. The wind returns this weekend, so difficult choices will get easier.
