Sounds like the salmon have been tracked down!! It appears that a large school of salmon have been found mid-way between Point Reyes and the South Farallon Islands. Boats today had as many as 23 limits! Yes, limits! We only had a handful of faithful willing to give it a try today so we couldn't make the long run to the hot bite, but we found our own fish anyway. Fishing the north end of the Deep Reef about 9 miles from the harbor, we ended the day with a very respectable score of 7 salmon for our 5 anglers with two fish fighting for big fish honors teetering right on 20 pounds each and all the rest not far behind, with the sole exception being one fish that barely broke by the 20" minimum by about an inch. We're rockfishing tomorrow (with space still available) but we'll keep a close ear on what happens on the salmon front. We're available for salmon fishing on Thursday and Saturday this week, and we're rockfishing again on Sunday. Keep a close eye on things. This may just be what we've been waiting for!
