The halibut fishing continues to improve, and the south bay seems to be the top location due the water clarity.  Legal size halibut are holding off the Alameda Rockwall and Oyster Point.  Several charter boats reported taking a total of seven legal halibut for their clients.  For example, the California Dawn out of Berkeley with a limited amount of live shiners hooked and landed 9 halibut and 8 striped bass for 9 anglers with another 38 short halibut.
