Hello all, I live in Sonoma and fish the Delta, Napa River, Petaluma River, the bay and ocean. Yesterday 3 of us fished Paradise for Halibut and caught 7, one was a shaker and released.
We were drifting popsicles.

Okay, I might be a “sucker”, but I’ll “bite” & ask just for the “halibut”… “drifting popsicles”?
Do they melt & leave a “yum” slick?

Hey SF. We should get together sometime and wet a line. I fish the Napa and Pet rivers too.
Congrats on the Butts you caught. Post some pics of them.
