another gloomy day but hit up the embarcadero this morning. caught a few nice halibut and even a salmon! that was a surprise. used my go-to bait setup and it paid off. always fun to fish in sf, rain or shine.

partly cloudy day out at the bay, went to golden gate park. caught some nice trout, used a spinner. they were biting pretty good around noon! can’t wait to cook 'em up tonight, the flavor will be killer.

back to crissy field, still overcast. caught a couple of small salmon, nothing big but it was a good fight! used a pink feather jig about 15 ft down. was really fun to get the rods bending. weather didn’t bother me much!

what a bummer, went out in the rain at fort point today. had high hopes, but the downpour made it tough. only caught one tiny perch. even with the rain, couldn’t resist getting out there. better luck next time, right?
