Texas Fish Report

The halibut fishing is not quite a prolific as it was in the past, but there are still some ‘butts’ to be caught. Quality halibut to 30 pounds taken while drifting live anchovies on the Berkeley Flats, and Angel Island while the striped bass fishing has been off the charts off the rock piles. Keith Fraser at Loch Lomond Bait & Tackle reports that the water off the San Rafeal Harbor is- loaded with striped bass. Several to 5 pounds taken off the dock at the bait shop he reported. They have plenty of anchovies, grass shrimp and pile arms in the shop so things are looking pretty good. Last week the California Dawn had 20 anglers and they hooked and landed 40 striped bass and 30 halibut to 30 pounds.
