Wide-open halibut action out of Bodega Bay yesterday. We ended up with limits for three father-son combos of jumbo, clean ocean halibut. We had three halibut over 40", eight between 35" and 40", and our smallest outlier coming in at 30". So far, my personal best day of halibut fishing by a long shot, and some of the best halibut action I've seen in the area. Overall, an epic day and more action to continue this week.

Solid mixed back trip for both boats out of bodega yesterday. In the morning both boats gathered up some live bait to fish for the day on. Capt Billy hit the timing right and picked up two monster halibut with the larger one coming in over 44" then ran out and grabbed 4 lings and limits of rockfish. On the bigeye we made quick work on limits of rockfish and half limits of lings to 20lbs. We then ran south and picked up 2 nice flatties to finish off the day. Things are about getting epic here in bodega.

Little chunky in the morning with a slow low tide bite, but it flattened out, Tide came up, and the lingcod started chomping. Had a light load of 4, but we still managed all of our Rockies and lingcod, plus a couple crew lingcod on top of that! Give us a call, the fishing just keeps staying consistent with everyone going home with big bags of fillets!! ~Cpt. Josh

A new regular, John Lavoy, and his crew came out from Nevada for 2 days of rockfish and lingcod fishing!! Limits of both, both days, plus crew ling! They had a huge fish fry Satirday evening between each trip to keep it within their limits possession wise. They were biting on everything, but were really chomping on new ling rig! TONS of great fishing to be had out of bodega bay right now… we will also be opening select dates for rockfish halibut combos beginning in June. These will be 4 packs ran on the sorta salty, targeting rockfish while the tides get right, then switch over to halibut to finish the day!!

Yesterday, we ran our first deepwater trip of the year in search of jumbo rockfish and monster lingcod. It took a bit to find some good biters, but once we got on them, we piled on solid limits of lingcod, up to 25 lbs, with almost all of the lings weighing in the mid-teens. We also had a tasty limit of yellows, widows, canaries, and a few bocaccios. The weather was flat calm all day, and we made quick time to the offshore grounds in just about an hour from leaving the dock. Overall, another great day out of Bodega Bay, and clients left with several massive bags of fillets each.

Today was the first day of 2026 running both boats and the conditions could have not been more ideal. Calm seas, cold blue water and a solid lingcod bite kept things epic to get dailed in. Both the Sorta Salty with Capt Billy at the wheel and the Bigeye with Capt Josh and I had easy limits of quality lingcod to 18lbs and a handfull on nice canaries and reds to 7lbs. We do have one spot left for our offshore rockcod/lingcod trip for sunday and its going to be epic with 2 ft swells and zero wind, plus this epic of an inshore bite means the offshore will be nuts. Contact us ASAP to grab that spot at a discounted inshore rate.
