SALTWATER REPORTS
BERKELEY
Multi-Species Saltwater Action
Continues with Plentiful
Halibut, Salmon, Lings &
More!
BERKELEY - “We had another great
day in the bay, 27 halibut and 1 striped
bass for 17 anglers,” exclaimed Captain
Chris Smith of Happy Hooker Sportfishing
on September 1. “Tomorrow we are
switching up our gears to rockfish and
lingcod. The bottomfish action has been
outstanding at the Islands and if you
concentrate on lings, you’ll likely get a
limit.”
“We enjoyed solid halibut action
today. Our charter opted for a Bay trip
and landed on nearly 2 around on the
halibut, with fish tipping the scales at
28 pounds. In all we had 44 halibut for
23 anglers. When we have fish inside
the bay like we do this season the late
summer and early fall action can be
really exciting,” exclaimed Captain James
Smith of California Dawn Sportfishing on
September 1.
While boats inside the bay were
rounding up halibut fillets, the New Easy
Rider found explosive late summer
salmon action outside the Golden Gate
on September 1, putting a total of 50
kings to 25 pounds in the box for 25
anglers. If you want a salmon dinner or
a couple sweet tasting ocean run fish for
the smoker, now is the time!
Captain Quang Vo
of Goldeneye 2000
Sportfishing has
been splitting time
between salmon
mooching, bay
halibut fishing and
bottomfish fishing
at the Islands.
As always Capt.
Quang’s scores
have consisted
of limits and near
limits with fish
approaching 30
pounds in terms of
halibut, lings and
kings.
