15th Annual Sand Crab Classic

Wow !

What the hell just happened ?  I missed it .

Well, looks like I will pretend I am in  it . 

And win it !

 

Such a frickin procrastinater i am. Ugh ! I always stink it up on tournament day anyways.

I know this is going out on a limb here, but Laura and I are going to drive over Sat morning. Neither one of us have experience catching perch. Who wants to let us tag along? We fished for perch at Crab Fest 2 years in a row and haven't caught anything! I'll swear on one of FM1's Coors lights I won't tell wear we are taken

Here’s a pdf map that shows the popular beaches for perch & stripers on Monterey Bay. You can even click on the name/numbers to see google satellite images of each beach.

Bill next time your camping at Doran hit me up I live 30 mins from Bodega Bay ..I’ll show you some spots ,I owe you after the Scotch / Whiskey tasting couple years back at Albion, Vic

Snapperhead,  I am going to help Bushy for a few in the morning then hit the beaches to fish.  You and Laura are welcome to tag along with me if you like.  My luck has been a bit rough lately though,  last few trips were pretty small fish.

Thanks for the map!!
I'll PM my number to Scruzfish.
Vic, That would be great! I'll PM you when we are heading that way again.
When we bought rods for perch, I told its easy we will catch fish

Trying to sneak out tomorrow up around your area and do some scouting.    

 Think I want to stay local in the santa cruz area for the derby this year so I can enjoy the festivities.

 If I don't get a fish in contention.... I get lazy about driving from Monterey side to Santa cruz for the party.

We caught some big fish lately at New Brighton (Potbelly), and Mary's.  Who knows if they'll be there tomorrow, or on Saturday.  Just sayin'

Good luck!!!

Bushy

hopefully I will do some scouting Friday morning.  Last Friday I hit New Brighton and came up with nothing.  The other guy there was having the same luck.  Then on my way out,  there was a guy that I watched walk down, bait up and cast out.  By the time I closed the 200 yard gap between us he had a nice perch on.   

Anyone fish the Cement ship before? That is next to where we are staying so I figured I would sart around there.

I usually pass the ship by and fish to the west (New Brighton) or the East (Rio Del Mar)  It's really all one big long beach.  If you start at Cement ship you can walk a mile or so up or downh all the way to Monterey (maybe swim the rivers and Moss Landing).

Night before the Derby I will post here spots I think will be happening according to latest local reports.  NCKA insiders....
