[RPT] - HMB Salmon 8/11/17

Decided to go on a whim, headed toward Bolinas, but made a last minute turn to HMB so I can be on time for the early bite.

Caught a fat 23" salmon at 7.15am, about 50 yards SW of the jaws, WMA, 20 ft down, 35 FOW.  Baits all over the place, most toward the beach, south east of jaws.  The bait balls near the jaws are invested with croakers.   Tried for the devil fish until noon, but no dice.  Foggy and cloudy all the day, water temp had cooled a bit from previous week. 

Hot bite in the morning, lots of NCKA-ers with at least one.  Bite basically died at about 9.30am.

Thank you for all the reports that NCKA-ers did, I was there because of you and your reports (and your pics!) and I hope all the NCKA-ers I met today caught something and/or limits!


Extra special thanks to Aviv and friend (sorry, didn't catch your name).    First, they save my net ..... THEN ..... helped me net my fish .... THEN .... saved my lunch .... AND ... basically saved my sushi.  Me, myself, and I (and my fam), thank you again!  I hope you guys got your devil fish.

Good job Victor. 

Nice work!

Thanks! I was inspired by the two of you.  'hopefully others will chime in with their catch.

Ok...I'm hooked after getting one Tuesday. Will be out again soon especially after reading your report. One more rookie question...what are the "jaws"?

Mouth of the harbor.
