SWBA MB

September 18, 2011

MB was very humbling today. Went in very positive that we would catch some nice fish. We had the bites on the big baits with big fish, we just could not get them on the boat. Lots of blow-ups with only a few fish hooked, what I thought was solid only to come off half way back to the boat. We weighed in a small bag and fell far from first. If only. O well. Congrats to all the teams that did do well, and to all of you who have been so supportive of Tracy and I we Thank You. Really looking forward to the Season Finale. One of the toughest tournaments I think we have ever done. You guys that did good did really good.

Board Meeting

September 1, 2011

Sweet 1/2 day today with Mike and his out of town client Chad.
These business charters are always cool I have fished with Mike before and this was Chads first time on the ocean.

The south swell was starting to show as soon as we left the harbor and filled in big time with the tide. We fished the kelps most of the day along with some deeper boilers off Laguna. Finally the fishing is picking back up water was 66 and a good surge had the just legal bass biting as we ended up with around 20 fish for four hours of fishing.

First off, If you live near your family your lucky, if you spend time with them your blessed.

Fished SCI with my two brothers today. First time out in way to long. told the boys to give me a date and we were out.
Fishing was fun no giants but plenty of fish not a 1,000,000 fish day that you may have been hearing about,
Conditions weren’t all that but the spots that had some had some fish. Cool thing is now were going to be fishing once a month. If you live near your family……..

When I pick up new clients for the first time I have no idea whom Im fishing with.
I’ve never had a bad one but some are better than others.

Wed. I met Robert and Lisah for the first of our two days of fishing.

From the minute we met I knew we were going to have fun.
Robert was a Good Stick and Lisah could fish too, but the fishing just plain old sucked.
Strong west winds at the beginning of the week once again rolled the water down from 69 to 62. We were every where there should be fish and scratched out a handfull for two 1/2 day trips
The fishing was Great.
Sometimes it’s not always about catching fish.

Three Amigos

August 21, 2011

Great group today. Doug brought two of his buddies out from Texas. The wife’s were shopping and the boys just wanted to spend some time together on the water.
A little windy in the morning but the bass were bitting and the guys had a 10-10-10 nassau going. Supper fun with a lot of trash talking going on. Got on a good little stretch where the guys all went bendo No big fish but lots of fun.

One Year Later

August 18, 2011

Fished with Ryder today. last time we fished together was this time last year, man kids grow up fast.
Last year we fished the bay today would be a different story
.
Slid out a 6:00 and made a stop at the mouth so Ryder could snag enough Mackerel to fill the back tank.
Ran south good looking water 67.3 just no current or life, asked Ryder if he wanted to run outside and take a look for a Marlin or something. He says “YEA” and were off.

Put the jigs in just the other side of the 14 and worked out to the shipping lanes. Good looking water the further out we got. Saw 6 Blue whales a couple of kelps with some bait and a few showers of Sauries but no Bill fish. He lasted about a hour and a half then it was back to the beach.
We came in at Main Beach and fished the kelp for just Ok fishing considering how good things looked. Ryder has really improved his Angling skills in one year.. All I had to do was run the boat run the boat. Great Kid

BAY BASS OPEN

August 14, 2011

Saturday the Balboa Angling Club held its Bay Bass tournament. Three man teams artificial lures no trolling 3 biggest fish total weight. We had about 30 teams fish from 5:00 to 12:00. Winning weight was around 6.49# Good fishing in the bay with everyone catching fish.
I took out Team Pin Heads and these young anglers really did a good job They were culling fish by 7:00 and went through 11 legals but they just could not get that big kicker that they needed. Ended up with a little over 4# for there 3 fish. Supper fun day with some great kids.
