Due to family issues (my little athlete's sports schedule) I had to break tradition and move the 13th Annual Forebay FnC to March this year. So see you cats on Friday, March 17th through Sunday, March 19th.

See you there 😸

I might hit the green trails at Hollister OHV on Saturday.

March?? That means we may miss some epic rainstorms during February! :smt005

Yes and yes.
They are also historically pretty strict about their water inspections, but I've never had an issue and have only been checked maybe half the times I've been there.

Right on! I missed you at "Crabfest", as well.
-
If anyone who has never been is interested in coming out and enjoying the usually shitty weather with us, then come on out! It's a family friendly event with lots of good fishing, food, and homies.

I'll run it by the wifey, see if we can make a weekend of it.

We would like to attend this event with camping. Do I need to make a separate camping reservation and do we need to bring anything as a group participant?

Welcome!
I already reserved the group campsite, so no need to make any reservations.
We've kind of moved away from any official potluck, but we'll be cooking in the gazebo or parking lot pretty much all day, so if you'd like to bring something to share that's completely up to you.
-
Shoprat will be there!!!

I wonder how the trails are going to look after getting hammered for weeks?
My 4Runner has been in the shop for 6 fucking weeks now and I'm hoping I get it back by the 17th.

I just checked again and both sites are open Friday night, but someone else has site B on Saturday.

Any issues on kayak inspection if it is raining?

I recall several years ago when it was raining, the person inspecting was fairly lenient but you never who will be at the kiosk that day. Loading the kayak upside down should help keep water out of the hatches.

You guys are bringing kayaks?? :smt044

Just joking , Sonny.
More often than not I bring my kayak, get it all set-up, buy $30 worth of bait, and never even go fishing. Or I do go fishing for like 2 hours.
If I'm lucky I will be getting my 4Runner back just in time to get my tires put on it, then go home to pack-up and bounce. I'm not going to worry about loading up the kayak and all the extra gear this year. I'm coming for the Chill.

The biggest striped bass ever caught in California was a 67 pound 8 ounce striper caught by Hank Ferguson. This trophy sized bass was pulled from the O’Neill Forebay on May 7, 1992.
-
I never catch bigger than 20" it seems there but hell they still tasted great :smt044

Good little read about the San Luis reservoir and its history as well as the construction going on the Dam side. ( Basalt)

Ha! I spent over an hour trying to make my way to Watsonville from Salinas this morning. Three different ways were shut down going north. luckily my co-workers were coming from the opposite direction and were able to meet me on-site. Lost some travel time monies. :smt011

I’m overdue for a chill weekend just like this.
No responsibilities let the shenanigans commence! :smt003

Aaarrgh! Didn’t know it was going to take 3.5 hours to get my tires changed! I probably won’t be rolling in until 4:00 or 5:00PM.
-
Took a 45 minute (one way) drive to pick up a truck load of wood. Sorry boys. The guy didn't tell me there was a swamp to go through in order to get the wood. This is just one of the areas. Plus I would have to load it all myself. I don't like you guys that much. :smt005 :smt005
-
LMAO!
Thanks for trying....I guess. :smt003

Came down the hill from the Salinas side. The dam has the most water I have seen in a long time. It looked to be about 15 to 20 ft from one of it's highest water marks.
