Fishing Report

Salmon turn elusive so we turn to plan B..

After grinding on the salmon grounds for four hours we decided to pull the plug and go try for some rockfish. So we came back down the hill and caught a few real nice fish including a vermillion and a lingcod. Then off to the crab grounds where we pulled pots for enough crab for…

Salmon scattered throughout the Bay!

We fished a new area and we’re able to catch 3 quality salmon to 15lbs. The weather stayed calm all day.  We had overcast skies with an air temp of 60′ while water was 54′             

Salmon continues to produce…

High scores throughout the week lead to a lot of Sunday boat pressure. We were able to land 4 high grade king salmon to 18lbs. calm and glassy conditions today with water temp 54’ and air temp 62’.  Expecting bite to pick back up during the week w less pressure.

Potluck trips with crab combos continue to be the best bet!!

Our 6 anglers had beautiful fall weather in the morning before turning blistery. Crabbing is still good with 5-6 jumbo crab per person.
