First time salmon fishing

Labor Day Weekend Fishing Report ? We had a great Labor Day weekend on the water with some awesome groups and some beautiful fish! Saturday, we started off with a slow warning, but once we found the salmon, it was game on. We put in the work, stayed on the fish, and they started coming over the rail. By the end of the trip, we had five beautiful salmon in the boat. Sunday, we had a special group celebrating an 18th birthday with a half-day fishing trip. We started out targeting halibut, but they weren’t interested in playing, so we switched things up and went after rockfish. The change paid off, and everyone was able to get a few fish and enjoy a great day on the water. Monday, we had another full boat of salmon anglers. We were fortunate enough to get on the fish early in the morning and stayed with them throughout the day. The crew put in the work, and we finished the trip with 10 beautiful salmon! It was an awesome way to wrap up Labor Day weekend, and the salmon fishing is still going strong. ? Salmon trips will be running through the end of the month. If you’d like to get out on the water and book a trip, just let me know! Thanks to everyone who came out and spent the weekend fishing with us. We appreciate your continued support!

Today we hosted a fantastic group of six anglers for a half-day trip on the water. The crew had their eyes set on filling the fish box with rockfish, so we pointed the bow north and made a run up the coast. The fish were cooperative from the very first drop. The bite stayed hot, allowing us to make quick work of full boat limits for all six passengers, plus crew limits for Vincent and myself. It was a incredible day with a great group of guys—plenty of laughs, steady action, and plenty of fresh fillets heading home. Trip Summary: Party Size: 6 Anglers + 2 Crew Target Species: Coastal Rockfish Result: Full Boat Limits (8 total limits landed) We still have open dates available for upcoming salmon and coastal trips! Give us a call or send a message to secure your spot on the boat.

Date: August 26, 2026 Trip Type: Full-Day fishing Combo Conditions & Overview We headed up the coast early to hunt for rockfish and lingcod. The morning bite started off a bit slower than hoped, but persistence paid off as we worked structure to build a solid box. Once the coastal bite wrapped up, we made the run back down toward the bay to spend the afternoon drifting live bait. Catch Breakdown Rockfish: 5 f limits across the board after grinding through the morning drift. Lingcod: Boxed 5 beautiful, heavy-grade lings to add some serious muscle to the cooler. California Halibut: Finished the day strong in the bay, landing 7 beautiful flaties on live bait to cap off the trip. Deck Highlights & Wild Encounters Despite the sluggish start up north, the crew stayed on it and finished with an incredible overall spread. The highlight of the day was an absolute jaw-dropper: a massive Great White shark chased one of our hooked fish all the way up to the surface and slammed right into the swim step of the boat right in front of everyone on deck! Heavy fish, wild encounters, and plenty of fresh fillets heading home. Booking & Availability
