Thursdays trip we ventured up the coast and the rockfish were off of the bite for us. But we did find 14 ocean bass on the Marin coast and 4 halibut. We finished up with 21 bass, 4 halibut, 1 lingcod and a few rockfish for 15 anglers. We will start targeting more rockfish mixed with bass or halibut next month on larger tides.  Striped bass has consistently been good for us the last few trips catching limits or close to limits for full boats in the bay. 

We have salmon scheduled for a week straight after June 27th. After that it is a mixed schedule. There are some primo Deepwater halibut tides in July.  We are still offering live bait trips during salmon season.  Visit our schedule at www.happyhookersportfishing.com or call, text (510)993-4414
