Friday, 06/12/09 - Sunday, 06/14/09 - This desert rat traveled to the San Francisco Bay Area for cool temps and saltwater fishing. What a great time we had drifting live anchovies for stout saltwater stripers, and trolling for the best tablefare of all......halibut! Pictures say it all:

Cortez 22 by Davis Boats. Owned and operated by my nephew and brother-in-law. How lucky am I to have an open invitation to fish this ride?

Drifting the bay. Golden Gate Bridge and Alcatraz in the background.

Start each morning drifting for stripers, two per angler, 18" min. These fish hit hard and put up a great fight, 8-12lb. fish are typical.

Finish the day trolling the flats for halibut, three per angler, 22" min. Typical size was 6-12lbs.

Sunday's catch!
Five on the boat, a typical day on the bay.
Back on the water on Wednesday, life is good! [cool]
