Jurassic Park today with live sand dabs for bait. Twelve lingcod for six people plus rockfish. And we threw back some lings. On our way out to the fishing grounds we got a rare Killer Whale show right in front of the boat. They were so close we had to stop to let them go by.

Fished for a few hours in the deep and got four lingcod and some rockcod but we got antsy and with all the commercial boats trolling by us we decided to switch to salmon.
