Ernesto got Friday started right on the Lovely Martha, a bright king salmon on the rail before the sun was all the way up.

The salmon have kept showing. Monday's full day put 19 king salmon on the boat for 17 anglers, and the half day morning run added 7 more for 10 anglers.

The crew says these are the last salmon trips of the season, with plenty of room Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday. Book at lovelymartha.com or call Capt. Mike at 650-619-6629. Let's go salmon fishing.
