http://www.hmbfishing.comAfter catching limits of rockfish their last trip out, our every-other-Monday Fishing Fools gang was ready to take another crack at the very elusive salmon. They headed to Duxbury, about the only spot within range were the salmon have been trickling through off and on, put the lines in the water and trolled. And trolled. And trolled. They did hook and land one nice salmon. Only problem was that it was the wrong kind of salmon, a silver which we can't keep. So the guys took a good stare to remember what a salmon looks like, sniffed it to remember what they smell like, gave it a kiss goodbye and graciously released it back to the briny blue. And that was it for the day. For those of you wondering why we're not scheduling salmon trips, this is why. Sure hope the salmon return next season.

He didn't have the weight yet, but it's definitely in the running for one of the biggest this season. I still haven't had the chance to update the scores......

Capt. Bob's back in the swing of things after returning from last week's vacation with a great score of limits of rockfish including just a couple fish shy of limits of cabezon with 17 cabs for 21 anglers (the limit on cabezon is one per person at least 15 inches long as part of each angler's 10 fish daily bag limit). Add to that 8 lingcod and two nice halibut, an eight pounder going to Michael Longi, his first ever......
