Half Moon Bay Sportfishing Staff

Ernie and Eric from Hayward Commercial Door have put together a cream of the crop group of fisherman over the years, and we expect nothing but the best when the gang joins us for a day of fishing. These guys know what gear to bring and they know how to use it. In spite of a downright pretty snotty ocean, in no time at all king size jumbo rockfish, just like we used to catch in the good old days, were swinging over the rail. Vermillions, coppers and bolinas made up the bulk of the catch again, with a few olives and a smattering of blues rounding out the sacks. Long before noon the guys were heading back to the barn with limits for all onboard with hefty sacks for those listened to the man upstairs...upstairs in the wheelhouse that is. I've said it before and I'll say it again, if Capt. Bob gives you some advice or recommends something, don't ask why, just do it. Bob is one of just a handful of guys in the Bay Area still in the business who has pretty much exclusively either decked on or ran charter boats for over 40 years. You can't beat that kind of experience. Between the guys fishing and the man running the boat for today's trip, they just don't come any better.

Those who were fishing went home with limits of nice quality rockfish, but those who succumbed to the motion of the ocean went home pretty empty, in more ways than one. This...... Read More

Another day in search of salmon, and we actually caught a limit...one limit equals two fish, right? That was it. Two fish to a whopping five pounds. We trolled and we trolled and we trolled, and finally about 11:30 we had a double header, two fish on at once. Bam, bam, two fish hooked, two fish fought, and two fish landed. And as fast as it happened it was over. Just another day in an outrageously tough salmon season....... Read More
