General Talk / Shelter Cove Virtual swap meet.
« on: May 04, 2024, 08:43:04 PM »
Or on site swap meet.

Considering listing some items for sale to be picked up at shelter. Will be there  the 9th and leaving early am Sunday.

At the moment I have extra jig heads ranging from about 3 oz to 6. I also have reels that I will have once I can separate myself from. :smt005

Hopefully post on Monday. Dm me if interested.

Craftsmen's Corner / Re: Homebrew aluminum kayak trailer
« on: May 04, 2024, 08:20:04 PM »
Wow that looked like a fairly smooth ride for a mountain road. My little trailer for my aluminum would have been jumping out on its socks if it had some. Definitely have to look into that set up. Nice job.

New Brighton beach, but the gates don't open till 8 am ????

If you have a light-to-moderate weight kayak, you can park on the street and wheel across the railroad tracks, tree roots, and rocks to get to the beach as early as you want.

I use to that sort of thing when I was younger. I do know that spot though. Makes me want to take my surf pole at the crack of dawn.

You can park on Coronado St, and then scramble down to the parking lot on the trail in the red circle. I did that often the first couple of years I was kayak fishing. But, since I'm now older and lazier, and since sharks started hanging out along the beach, I've lost my enthusiasm for this particular launch site...

Great !! More spot burning. Its what's trending at the moment.   :smt002 :smt005

Has anyone tested retrieving what might be a larger fish at slower retrieval from deeper water? I will try and report when the time arises.

I have not had issues with barotrauma at inshore  because most of my inshore fishing in a kayak is usually no more than 80 ft in places I frequent around the Monterey bay

Nice boat.
I might be looking for one soon, depending on where I retire to.

Paul

Retire in San Jose. Then you have great points to cover north and south. :smt001

Unless you plan on retiring in Alaska. That's a no brainer. :smt003

Thank you, Alex
My wife and I compromised, and we have been looking around Sonoma County (Santa Rosa, Sebastopol, and Windsor) lately.   We would like to move within the next five months.

Paul

Congrats !


Look forward to reports from your new area soon.

Congrats on a new slaying vessel Alex!  That looks much slicker than the tin cans you usually float in  :smt044

 :smt005

Thanks, I think? :smt005

Ha! I might be taking my 12 foot aluminum to shelter for a few recon missions. Then talk to me about tin cans. Tenderfoot! :smt001
