This thread has been a little quite? Looks like I won't be able to make it, drywall getting hung. I already bucked 70 sheets of 1/2" 165 feet to the "shack". Any way I can have someone else pick up my shirts (2)? Hoping to make it for just the BBQ, but it starts at 1pm and I won't be able to get away until 330-430pm.

If anyone can get the shirts to me in Fremont, I can get them to you.

I'm going down to SC on 3/18. If no one else can pick them up by then I can take a shot at it. Or if Bushy is willing to drop them off at my bro's house off Capitola Rd that would be easy too.

Also I think RBark is planning to attend, and he's from dublin.

Sharkbait72, myself and J will be fishing this one however not sure from where yet and haven't narrowed down a time yet. Depending on how many libations we consume the night prior will determine what time we fish. :beer3
Cheers!

My wife and I are participating and fishing. We plan to head back to Milpitas for dinner plans after the awards/BBQ. I can meet up with you somewhere nearby.

Hi Allen,
My wife and I are leaving Berkeley around 4am and probably hit up a few spots along the Hwy 1. Montara, San Gregorio, Davenport, etc... until we reach Santa Cruz and check-in time.
Let me know if you want to join.

Any help will be great, but I don't want anyone to have to go out of their way. Maybe I can have a growler from one of Livermore's Brewery's as a Thank You. :smt008

Also I think RBark is planning to attend, and he's from dublin.
I’d be happy to pick it up and drop it off at his house. snapperhead just PM me if you want me to do that.
Allen I’ve never actually caught perch from shore but if you want to hit up a beach and pretend I know what I’m doing I’m game.
I’m seeing if Matt wants to come with me, as he lives in Santa Cruz he knows the place better.
-
awesome, PM sent

Ryan, if you're passing through Fremont on your way home, can you pick up a crock pot from me for Bill and Laura?
-
Yes I’d be happy to. I assume by Bill you mean snapperhead? I’ll text you when I’m passing through Fremont on my way home.

I'll be out on Saturday too. Coming from the East Bay. Thinking about starting at Montara because there's no gate to deal with early in the morning. Then heading to Pomponio and maybe Davenport. I've been doing well at both Montara and Pomponio. Hope to see you guys out there. -Shake

Was great to walk the beach. Called it an early day with 4 small SBP's . Chased down a few crabs for bait. See attached video. :smt003 Tried out my fairly new gopro that has a remote.
Unable to make the Festivities with having to work sunday. Was a great day all in all.

I need to get out with you sometime Alex. I've never caught a perch from shore.... 3 years going to this tournament and still have never caught one haha. Next time I head down there I'll hit you up and see if you're game?

Alex is the "man"!!! And he will show you all his secrets. But some things you and I will just have to learn by experience. For me, it is reading those troughs, holes and rips where these creatures congregate. :smt010. As the saying goes, "we can't catch what ain't there".
By the way, do you know who won this year's Sand Crab Classic?
-
Nah... I didn’t stick around at portugese hall. Didn’t see any familiar faces so I just left before the judging. Saw the name mentioned somewhere but I don’t think it was a NCKA’er.
-
You saw it here 1st. BTW Ryan.....I saw you heading down the parking lot I thought you were just going to get food. couldn't find you the rest of the day. I still have your tshirt saved from last year or two years ago, wanted to give it to ya at the derby. You are always welcome to join me surfcasting I go all the time. But if Alex Bulldoggie has convinced everyone he's more productive than me (and Alien) then so be it. I'd love to fish with you soon anyway.

Sorry for the late post. I had a blast at the Sand Crab classic. I decided to fish Montara most of the day. Started off well, using gulp worms and catching a red tail then a BSP. After that, I had a bunch of small fish. I decided to try a larger grub and then some big sand crabs for nothing. I went back to the gulp worms for more small to medium sized fish. Called it, and went to Pomponio for nothing. I was able to get a good variety of perch. Overall, caught a lot of fish, just nothing of size. The event was fun. Good food and good people. This is my second year and will look forward to it again next year.

You know those pics are from the day that we thought we had figured out Clayman's secrets. I can say unequivocally, that it is not just the golden locks and straw hat. Back to the drawing board ...

Clayman's reports from lake Almanor should have come with a disclaimer. " Not everyone will catch fish like this ".
Waiting for my turn to fish Almanor and see what the outcome will be for me. :smt001
