Fellow Sportsmen,

Well folks things are changing for the better. The last 3 days the ocean has cooperated and we made it up the coast. We landed some of the biggest rockfish I've seen in a while. The lingcod are just about the same as last year, up to 12 pounds. But the rockfish are much larger than last year, 3 to 4 pound pigs. I measured a black yesterday that when 4 1/2 pounds. The halibut are starting to come back due to the slower tides backed off winds and the water clearing. I have reports of some halibut caught today. We will be looking for halibut tomorrow. The salmon bite blew up 2 days ago with boats coming in with early limits. They are still quite a ways out at W buoy but now within a reasonable range. I will make a run for the salmon very soon. I just posted a lot of photos on the album page. Some beautiful lingcod and rockfish, take a look. You will find them on the summer album 2012 on the Photo page. Everything is looking up for fishing except for the amount of space I have available. June is pretty much booked up solid except for Friday the 22nd Friday the 29th and I have some space on Monday the 18th everything else is full. Enjoy the photos.
