Having never been to the Port of Sacramento can somebody just confirm that fm the access for this event is off Jefferson Blvd at S River Rd?

That's what the internet tells me, but I just want to make sure!
Correct.

It was so cool that Sean brought us to the beach by Mavericks to show us how launch/land and play in the surf.  That's the place I stay away from when out there fishing and it was great not having expensive fishing gear on board to practice.  I learned a lot from the class and I'm stoked knowing that I can help my fishing buddies and myself whenever that time comes.
It was a great day learned so much and met and hung out with the team it was great meeting you finally.

This class was taught by the awesome Sean Morley. As a newb to the ocean this Class was so helpfull bewtween the paddle techniques and him teaching me the skills to feel comfortable on the ocean as well as helping recuse on any body of water I recommend it to any level of kayaker. You will pull something away from his class. This is video 1 of 3

General Talk / Re: alzheimer's
« on: September 30, 2015, 10:31:42 AM »
I'm looking for some advice.  My brother, who is 60 years old, was diagnosed with Alzeimer's almost 7 years ago.  Yea.  At age 53. 

The first 5 years, not so bad.  He was even able to stay working at his job until finally this year, they forced him to retire.  Now, not so good.  He is getting not only forgetful; stuff like he can't remember if he retired from the Air Force or the Navy,  (He served a career, then began a new career in the FAA where he recently was forced to retire.) but he's getting argumentative.  Even with his younger grandchildren.  An example; today my brother and his wife took their 6 year old granddaughter to the park before her soccer practice.  She fell on the swings and took a hit to the head.  Nothing serious, but enough to throw her off at practice later that afternoon.  My brother kept getting angry at her for not trying hard.  When reminded she took a fall at the park on the swing, he didn't remember that and accused his wife of making it up.  This happens all the time, as in at least every few days at least.  He goes to a day care 4 days a week, but he's finding it boring.  In fact, he's finding his whole life boring and that is contributing to his frustration. 

My brother and his wife live in Oklahoma.  I'm flying them out here to our place in a week or so for 10 days as a 'get-away' from their home situation. 

My brother was the 'cool guy' all his life.  He was an air traffic controller in the Air Force, worked after retiring from the military for the FAA until just recently, and a computer wiz.  Now he can't even play solitare and is afraid of computers.  He can't drive, after getting lost a couple times, and they had to sell his Mustang convertible.  He got me into racing motorcycles, heck I even followed in his footsteps into the AirForce.  He was accepted to Annapolis, but turned it down when he preferred the AF.  He was a 4 year varsity track star in HS and got other scholarships offered, not just Annapolis.

His wife is very depressed and at her wit's end with his aggitation with boredom after retirement.

I'm hoping there's someone around who has or is dealing with this sort of thing with a family member and can offer some advice. 

I plan to take him fishing, Yosemite, our old stomping grounds as we both grew up in this area, camping, to the ocean, etc.  My wife is going to take his wife to a day spa and other wimmen stuff that they do to unwind and decompress.  She tells me physically he is fine and will live many more years, which has here scared that this is the tip of the iceburg and how bad things are going to get. 

Sorry if it sounds like whining and complaining, I'm just wanting mainly to know if there's someone around who has been there and can offer any suggestions I can do and if there's more help for his wife. 

Social Security Disability has come through, the VA pays for all the daycare, his military pension and his FAA pension are slowly getting his checks in order, so money is not one of their problems, thank God.  They are far from rich, but won't have to worry about grocery shopping. 

Man, I feel so bad for him and for his wife.  It sucks for me, I can't fathom what it's like for them.
I took care of my grandfather that had Alzeimers. It is very difficult on everyone but including the person that has to deal with day to day and wake up too. My grandfather many times had no idea who I was and TRIED to call the police on two occasions. We finally placed tons of pictures of me and him around his bedroom and house so he knew I was suppose to be there. I'm very sorry to your family and specifically your brother and wife. Good luck nothing wrong with getting things of your chest.

Very nice! Just be careful about grabbing the fish while he has a treble hook hanging off his mouth. I would recommend a fish grip otherwise you're gonna get a hook into your hands one of these days.  :smt087
Damn you lol. I know it's reality and in the video that's why I was taking my sweet assssss time even almost losing that boy because he shook all but one hook you can see it. I need to invest in a pair.

This might be a good time to take my buddies who are seasick prone out to the delta and see if that is the cure.

That's a great vid, Thanks for posting it up,

Where did you launch from,  I know there's a convenient spot there on Liberty Is rd, right at the mouth of Prospect, but it's all posted and looks like a sketchy spot to leave a vehicle all day.
Yeah we launched at that same exact spot. On that nasty bumpy road. We left out cars over night and they were safe. Yeah it does seem sketch but we were good. Just don't leave anything that looks nice out lol.

Nice video man! I've been eyeing prospect and Lindsey slough, looks like it's worth the trip! Thanks for sharing

We launched from liberty island road which is a nasty and bumby dirt road. And headed straight into prospect slough. There are some big fish in there. Between nice bass and some really nice striper.
