Our fishing is gradually opening up, with COVID restrictions. We have been fishing on party boats with half loads and increased prices. Some fresh water lakes have opened with restrictions, and more launch ramps everywhere are available. Bob Stein, Brion Beetz, Raliegh Davis, Stan Wong, and Carl Moyer caught halibut just outside the golden gate, and Stan got a beautiful limit of salmon much further out. New member Duane Einhorn caught limits of both salmon and halibut. Brion Beetz and Carl Moyer caught rockfish, cabezon, and ling cod upon the ocean. Chuck Vanoncini made a trip to Lake Almanor where he and his friends caught big rainbow trout. Ernie Wong is having an awesome year for shad in the Yuba River, he caught and released 125 in one day. Tom Kostik has been catching black and striped bass, and on a venture in the bay caught a halibut and rock fish. Gordon Linebaugh and grandchildren fished Round Valley Lake near Greenville and caught and devoured 15 Blue Gills. Joe Miscione and son caught stripers in Montezuma Slough. Mario Moritorio and Phil Scimonelli caught some at the Martinez pier.
