Head east out of Resurrection Bay for the best halibut fishing opportunity in the area. Use a sinking tip with a weighted shrimp fly and fish near points and submerged rock piles.
Lingcod continue to protect their nests from predation, and lingcod fishing remains closed.
All incidentally caught lingcod must be released immediately. Trolling for king salmon has slowed considerably as these hatchery fish head for the beach. The beach fisheries for king salmon near Lowell Creek and the Seward Lagoon outflow are picking up daily. This early run of hatchery fish should peak soon. All freshwaters draining into Resurrection Bay are closed year round to salmon fishing.
