Between the wind earlier in the week and big swells now there's not much to report. One boat got out for some rockfish on Friday. Five divers worked the bar yesterday and didn't see any halibut (but one saw a personal best 14 angel sharks if you like those). They did see lots of large Dungeness crab. Red crabbers are doing well but also returning lots of big Dungies. Hopefully more to report later this week but the weather forecast is a bit flaky.

Finally, a halibut! Vic Shada caught this 21 pounder while he was mooching for salmon off of McClure's. He and his partner also caught three salmon. The only other boat that we launched today caught two limits of salmon on Ten Mile near Abbott's Lagoon and they were back by lunch time.

This week's white sea bass was caught by Tom Cook. It weighed 47 pounds and was caught, I believe, off of McClure's Beach. Tom was actually targeting sea bass, so it wasn't an accident.

These are Friday fish caught by Tom Gerbi and Ed on the Shut Up and Fish. They came from 70 feet of water off of Abbott's Lagoon. There were more salmon caught there today but the bite slowed a bit for most of the trollers and the moochers seemed to do a little better. No halibut today but some nice rockfish came in.

Miller Time limited on salmon yesterday and today. His fish all liked his blue trolling heads and were caught by Abbott's Lagoon.

Ron Johnson limited yesterday and brought home one nice one today. He was trolling near Abbott's as well. There were about 40 boats fishing the area today and most guys came back with salmon.  
Hunter Hayes of Lodi caught this 36 pound salmon today while fishing with his father and Mike Gonzales on the Marisa Kay. They also limited on rockfish.

There is a good salmon bite going on Ten Mile from the north parking lot to almost the Keyholes. The best action is on the squid a mile north of Abbott's Lagoon in 70 to 100 feet of water. Today one boat returned in three hours with two limits of nice salmon. Yesterday's salmon had some of reddest flesh we've seen this year. No halibut to report but the rockfish are biting well.
