I made a big boo boo for the crab opener last month on a PB. I forgot to make sure my license was in my wallet for the crab opener. It was in my PFD at home. I couldn't find find it for the fish cop at the Scott Peterson ramp (Berkeley). He looked me in the eye and asked if I had one. Pulled out his smart phone and found I wasn't bs'ing. I think he was happy to let me go. He said it was a waste of time to cite me, for him and the courts. I wanted my 10 crab way more than he did.
  I wanted to see him the following weekend to tell him I found it (he had told me it's $10 to get a reprint at Big 5). But he wasn't there.
  We could have had another disaster that day he wasn't there. We were almost back to Berkeley with our 40 crab all sorted and legal. Then my buddy spotted an extra bucket of crab on our deck under the pots. When we were pulling out the jumbos and tossing the small ones we forgot about that bucket. We tossed them in the bay. If he didn't spot that bucket and the cop was there. What would the fine be?  There was a dozen or so keepers in it.

  Hello Chuck. I'm sorry to hear you have to go through this. It's good they found it early. That's a good reason to be positive and I'm sure you know you still have lots of things to be grateful for. Like family.
  My sister in law is a breast cancer survivor. And my dad had Hodgkins in the sixties and seventies. He just had his 83rd birthday wednesday.
  Hope to see you 10-11 at hmb. I gotta find a nice piece of driftwood for my hand line.

  Hey Blue--Your radio will be fine. Mine broke down because it's old. I got my moneys worth, just time to get a new one for me. I just miss my girlfriend that used to give me the NOAA weather report every morning.
  When are you salmon fishing in Mairin again?

My Icom just broke. It was stuck on scan, then I just pushed the transmit button and now it's just stuck on 13. Does anybody know if I can fix it? I push all the buttons and nothing happens.

 Salmon should be close soon. Wharf road is the end that is more complicated, (currents, surf, surfers). Brighton is the one to use. It's between the channel and the patch. If you need smaller breakers in your face you just walk up closer to the patch. Look at the surf report from the local shop, you can read as many old ones as you want. He's pretty funny sometimes.

  It's probably more than you want, but just so you know. CCK in HMB has SK1, then SK2 for learning how to sea kayak with a sit inside. After you take those two, then you can take the surfzone class and rockgarden trips etc. I repeated the surfzone class about 5 times 20 years ago.
