Has anyone been fishing tamales for halibut this year?

Yes, three more posts and you can access the 2019 Halibut reports in the members area.

This ,btw it`s Tomales not Tamales  and welcome to NCKA   

Depends if the bite is "hot", then we change the name ...one week to go Vic?  Let's do OP or Paradise...

I'm might be down with oyster point if anyone is thinking of going.
Paradise is going to be a game time decision because I need extra sleep for the tug up the hill afterwards

I've been getting permission to set up and break down at the ramp with my vehicle if the park is not crowded...

I'll be heading to Tomales once I get back from my trip next week.  Plan to drop crab pots and troll for butts. 
Others are welcome to join. 

I'm in if my schedule allows. I love a crab fish combo

Sounds fun.  Let us know when you decide on a day, I'd like to join.

With the combo days how long are you soaking?  Do you typically drop on the way out and just pull on the way back, or are you pulling every hour or something?  Just bought a couple pots this year to start giving the combo runs a try.

At a place like Tomales, it really depends on the tidal change.  On big tide days, 30-60min soaks are better so you can move them if needed to zone in on the crabs.  Smaller tides, you can leave them longer. 

Thanks for the local crab soaking tips Simply.

Thanks, looking forward to fishing for some flatties.

Went out yesterday morning and conditions weren't as ideal as I hoped. Drifted from the weather buoy to past hog and conditions weren't getting any better so called it early.

I’d love to get out. Im coming from Sacramento if anyone wants to carpool.

I"m from Sacramento too, I'm up for carpooling or at least connecting up so we have some people to kayak fish with.
