Big changes are coming for rockfish fishing regulations in 2023.  The latest information is available at the following link:
https://wildlife.ca.gov/Fishing/Ocean/Regulations/Groundfish-Summary

The new regulations refers to 50fathom RCA line frequently. Not able to find one available from the web, so I collected the GPS coordinates from federal regulations (50 CFR Part 660,Subpart C), and converted the data into KML format, and combined the data with MPA map.  Here is the shared google map link for the combined map:

When saved/opened in Google Maps app, one should be able to see his current location, MPAs, and the 50fm RCA lines.

Safety First / How to read weather forecast?
« on: August 30, 2012, 10:01:44 AM »
I am a newbie trying to figure out how to read the weather forecast. From old posts, it seems the following websites are commonly used for WX forecasts:
http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov and http://forecast.weather.gov.

weather.gov has both zone forecast and single location forecast (where you can select any point on the map), while noaa.gov has only zone forecast. It seems the zone forecast are same for both sites.

My question is: should the zone forecast or single location forecast be used? For example, Timber Cove area forecast for the coming labor day:

Zone Forecast:
Labor Day: NW winds 5 to 15 kt. Wind waves 1 to 3 ft. Mixed swell NW 3 to 5 ft and SW 3 ft. Patchy fog.

Single location forecast:
Labor Day: Variable winds less than 5 kt becoming WSW around 6 kt in the afternoon. Patchy fog before 11am. Mixed swell...WNW 3 to 4 ft and SW 2 ft. Wind waves around 1 ft.

Will the WX condition be good or not? I have some concern for the mixed swell, especially the SW 3 ft. (As some old posts warn on mixed swells and long period south waves). 

Thanks in advance!
