We headed towards the salmon grounds, made it out far enough to be able to put our lines in the water, but the ocean is still not cooperating. It may be gorgeous on land, but it's still downright not nice on the ocean. We were hoping the wind would hold off until the afternoon, but there still was just too much swell and just enough wind in the morning to be unable to make a day of it. To add insult to injury the fish were there, too. We released several silvers, a couple of shakers, boxed one keeper and lost one nice one before we called it quits a little after 9 a.m. The forecast is calling for the wind to back off a tad for tomorrow but not enough for our liking so we've cancelled our Pigeon Point rockfishing trip for Wednesday. Good news is that the forecast is looking pretty decent for Thursday, and it sure seems like the fish are waiting for us, so maybe, just maybe, we'll have good things to report Thursday afternoon. We have room available all of our trips through Memorial Day weekend...rockfishing on Saturday, and salmon on Thursday, Friday, Sunday and Monday...so give us a call if you'd like to join us.

Without a doubt today we saw the best action so far this season on the Queen of Hearts. Our 15 anglers were graced with flat out gorgeous weather and ended up hooking around 50 fish. About a dozen of those were shakers, another dozen were silvers, we probably lost about a dozen and we ended up with a fish per rod in the box, landing 15 salmon with the two biggest bottoming out the scales at 27 and 28 pounds.......
