Howdy yall, it's Trejan on the Sunrise. Today, we had a 5 hour fishing and crabbing trip with 17 passengers. After we left the harbor at after 6:30, we went north for about 40 minutes before we got to our first fishing spot. We didn't set out any crab pots again on the way there because crabbing has been great in the spot we're at. When we got to our fishing spot, we got 2 fish on our first drift. We then caught 2 on the second, and 2 again on the third. Fishing stayed consistent with us catching 2-4 rockfish a drift, until about the 6th drift when it started to slowly get better. We ended up limiting out again and afterward it was time to go crabbing. Just like yesterday and the day before, it was great crabbing. We ended up with 105 and everyone got over 6 crab a person. After crabbing, we finished up our trip by heading back into the harbor. During the trip, the wheather was nice and the fog stayed away for the most part. The ocean was smooth again for the whole trip .. Overall, it was good day for fishing and another great day for crabbing.

That’s the scientific term for animals in the whale, dolphin, and porpoise category of marine mammals. From there we can break down the categories even farther into baleen and toothed whales. Baleen whales are your Humpbacks, Grays, Minke, etc. and toothed whales include Orcas, Sperm, and Dolphins just to name a few. Baleen are mostly filter feeders...... Read More
