Sharkman's Fishing Diary
Our Fishing Reports are factual from people who actually fish the area. Unlike some fishing sites who just copy stuff that is weeks old and claim it as their own.
If the fishing has been bad we say so and do not pretend otherwise just to get you here. Reports are updated weekly, usually Thursdays.

2pm - No wind, calm water and the most beautiful day. Not even a fisher or evidence of earlier fishers except for one patch thick with fish scales accumulated over the past few days and obviously a few scales were added this morning. Success like this has not been happening elsewhere on the beach. The sand is building up on the beach again with more areas of deep water.

The surf has varied from calm to very rough this week. Slowly the channel is becoming deeper again but there is still a lot of shallow water. Fishing results are patchy with best catches in the roughest conditions, but as the water calms down the catches reduce. Blue surf poppers mentioned as successful with most salmon small to medium in size.
