http://www.hmbfishing.comToday was the first of many fun trips scheduled this summer with the San Mateo Police Activity League. It's a great organization that, among other things, keeps kids from the San Mateo area involved and introduces them to different activities during the summer while school is out. Our crew always looks forward to these trips because they love getting kids hooked on fishing and the kids are happy just to simply catch a fish without the pressure of having to land limits every time out. As always, the kids had a ball catching loads of rockfish, and they landed several of the big whoppers we've been seeing recently, too. Heard they had some fun tasting some of Capt. Bob's hot sauce collection on the way back in at the end of the day. Hope they had a lot of bottles of water! By the way, the best lure recently, believe it or not, has been the simple, normal, good-ole-standby shrimp fly jig (well, super fly to be exact) with either a strip or a whole squid.
And now, a couple of announcements: (1) This Sunday, July 1 we are rockfishing. There is still a few spaces available if you'd like to join us. Be sure to give us a call, NOT email, if you'd like to nab a spot or two. (2) Now that the weather seems like it's starting to calm down, we have added our popular afternoon rockfishing trips on Saturdays beginning on July 7. The trips will depart around 3:30 p.m. and return around dusk. Cost is $55 per person. (3) We have designated three Wednesdays in July as "Limited Load Rockfishing Trips" on July 11, 18 and 25. The trips will be limited to no more than 25 people and the cost will be $65 per person. More limited load trips trips may be scheduled in August depending on demand.

We started out the day hitting the deeper water and loaded up on some of the quality belly busting rockcod the area has been cranking out. Even some of the blues were huge. With the calm seas we had today, Bob headed to the shallows after the tide changed. They rounded out their limits for all onboard there, adding 7 lingcod to 13 pounds and a couple of cabezon into the mix. Now, for a couple of announcements: (1) This......

he Fishing Fools gang took another stab at finding some salmon that wanted to play, but all they found were two small shakers and one silver to release fishing in about 180 feet of water offshore from Montara. Tomorrow it's back to the rockcod grounds, and we have room available. Come on down and check in by no later than 6:15; we'll have the doors open at 5:00. And more news: Looks like we'll start offering our popular afternoon rockfishing......
