Lingcod on the bite once again
Fishing Report: 04/18/2024
Two vessels out today and both the Surfrider and the Sunrise came home with limits of the Lingcod and one boat limited on the rockfish and the other was ever so close. All this was done on a perfect ocean and a sunny warm day. The crabbing was also good with the folks crabbing onboard bringing in 3-5 per person.
Should have two beautiful days coming up Friday and Saturday with a possible rise in the swell height by Sunday.

Nice ocean but super fast current
Fishing Report: 04/17/2024
The Sunrise was out there today and had to deal with a very fast moving current which kept us from doing all that well on the lingcod bite. We did catch some and they were really nice ones but did get a limit on the rockfish quota for all the folks onboard. We caught a nice variety of rockfish including Blacks, Deacons, Canaries and Widow rockfish. Crabbing continues to improve as each participant brought home around 5.5 crabs per person.
