Title: Sf bay halibut carnage
Post by: Norcalfish80 on May 05, 2019, 08:51:09 PM
Went out with two buddies for a trolling trip, and had an absolutely stellar day. 50 fish landed with 8 keepers and a chunky striper. Trolled in 8-12 fow with dodgers and chovies/herring/hootchies.

Nice catch !  Some days are like that. Those are the days you remember for a long long time. I hope you got some nice photos.

Updated with a pic! Being stuck with large sturgeon is a good way to be.

Nice load of cali's boys!  SF Bay has been hot for hali's this year just like the previous few years.

Tamales Bay is also starting to produce the flatties.

Hehe no time for action pics, too busy with the fish. Will be out again in a couple weeks, up in Portland this weekend so off the water. Salmon opens back up pretty soon here so excited for that.
