Fishing line: Top picks

[spectr17]

BERKELEY--Excellent action continued on the party boats last week, with the boats targeting either salmon or bottomfish, and switching over when weather or action required. On Wednesday, the New Goldeneye scored true live bait potluck action with rockfish limits and eight lingcod from the Farallones, then 10 halibut to 18 pounds from the Marin shoreline. On board the Goldeneye 2000, a salmon effort scored only five kings, but a switch to bottomfish produced not only limits of rockfish, but 55 lingcod to 25 pounds. On board the Happy Hooker, anglers scored rockfish limits, then got to supplement the live bait action with stripers and halibut in the bay over the weekend.
