In advance of the most recent storm that arrived yesterday morning. The bay was calm, the skies were threatening until about 3:00pm and then the rain actually arrived.

We saw about six confirmed catches (other boats trolling around us) of keeper Halibut while trolling the Bird Cage off of the Airport. We were trolling in about 10 feet of water using long, skinny and shinny double treble hooked lures. This 25+ Lbs. Halibut (Captain Bob) was caught at the tail end of a weather disturbance that blew through NorCal at about 3:00pm in the afternoon of 4/23. As long as the water is green, the Halibut fishing in SF bay continues to rock!

Unfortunately, the big guys are hanging out up river in Sasoon Bay and further up in the Delta. Our experience last week was one of debris and big tides. We saw lawn chairs and debris headed out the gate. Kind of sad. But the water was flying by on a 8 foot tide. No action on Ghost and Mud Shrimp (live). We hear the halibut is still hot, so there you go.

Anybody else experience something different?
