Salmon Fishing Slow, Halibut Fishing Fair

Salmon fishing was SLOW this past weekend, mostly due to the bad weather. We’ve only heard of a few small springs being caught in the bay. But again, very few people went out. Anglers trolling bait should use small to medium anchovy or herring in Purple Haze or Glow teaser heads. The best flashers have been the Purple Haze and the Jellyfish. If you prefer to fish artificial bait, give Mongoose, Green/Glow or Army Truck 4” or 5” Coyote, Gypsies or Titan spoons a try. For plastic baits, Cricket, Purple Haze or White hootchies and squirts are good for springs.

HALIBUT Halibut fishing was FAIR this past weekend. Jim Yardley caught a 34 lb halibut near Albert Heaqd. Robert Hincliffe caught a 31 lbs halibut at the 27 Fathom Reef. Extra Large herring and/or Octopus are the most popular baits and are usually fished off spreader bars. However, if the dogfish become a nuisance, you can use Mudraker or Lucky Jigs or the Glow in the Dark bullet Jigs.
