There are some Salmon being caught in front of Moss Landing on the edge of the canyon. There were some good scores of Halibut for the anglers drifting near the Mile Buoy. There were a few boats who fished up the coast in 60-90 feet of water and caught some nice Rock fish and Lingcod. There were some nice Halibut caught trolling from Capitola to Pajaro. The winds were down all morning but it did blow in the afternoon. The wind is expected to come down for the next few days.
