We did not sail the past two days with the weather. Sailed to day with 7 fares in flat calm conditions. Water temp was holding in the mod 40's. Had a decent bite on the change of tide as 50 blackfish were landed, 17 were keepers. Clams were the best bait today. Once the ebb got moving the bite slowed. With this great stretch of weather coming up hopefully this is just the beginning of some good fishing to come.
Picked away at the blacks today. Nothing great yet though. Despite the lousy forecast it actually turned out to be the nicest day yet with almost no wind and warm temps. The water has risen a few degrees the past 3 days which we needed. Temps around 45-46 degrees and its getting close to the ideal temp for Spring Blackfishing. We finished the day with around 40 blackfish, 16 were keepers. Yesterday we had 20 blacks for the day with

Until finally, once the incoming tide got going in the afternoon, a few blacks

If the weather clears up and the water temp holds we might try again later
