April 2024 update

After much deliberation, we have a rockfish season for this year.  Deep water only in April, then nearshore from May first until October, or they close it suddenly again.  No salmon season is expected, but there is the slim possibility of a day or two. Meanwhile, we are catching trout, big and delicious. Too many of us feasting to list here.  Halibut fishing in the bay has started, but the catch would have to improve to reach a dismal level.  The same can be said for stripers in the bay and delta.  Ron Lew did get a few undersized leopard sharks in the bay.  All of that sadness will change as the water warms and the gush of fresh water into the bay decreases.   

 

Bob Lively caught this guitar fish in the bay. He played it for a while before landing it.

 

Carl Moyer, Phil Scimonelli, Lee Clark, Bob Stein, Dave Havlik, and Brion Beets were proud of this salmon limit
