Down to fishing! We arrived at the Farallon Islands, some 25 miles or so from the Golden Gate, at around 9AM. Though it was a long run, Captain Harry of the New Seeker put us right onto the action. This being my first rockfishing trip in Northern California (as I used to live down in SoCal and work on boats there) I was amazed that we didn't bring any bait - just shrimp flies. The action was Wide Open!! We didn't need a single piece of bait.

I had to contend with a little rocking and rolling while taking these photos -- the Farallons aren't exactly known for their calm weather. Nonetheless, here are a few happy anglers pulling up their gangions. We fished at anywhere between 30 and 180 feet for wide open action - sometimes three fish on two hooks and the sinker!

Another nice specimen of the Blueish variety... Most of the fish ranged from 2 pounds up to about 4 or so. As soon as Captain Harry pulled onto a spot, the rockfish would move up the water column to come and play. Though we were in 180 to 240 feet of water, we'd often get fish right under the boat at 20 or 30 feet. I gotta say, these little blues sure love to tug, too!
