I'll be there bright and early! The bait shop here in Vallejo has ghost and grass shrimp, but they don't open until 6:00 tomorrow So, I plan on picking some up tonight and trying to keep them alive in my refrigerator over night. Wish me luck with that!

For those interested, Norm's Bait Shop at the Vallejo Public Launch has got lots of ghost and grass, but try to keep that between us kayakers!

If need be I can pick up some extra bait, but I'll need to know before 6:00 pm. Keep in mind, you'll be gambling on my ability to keep the bait alive overnight, but I'm willing to try for you.   

OK, I can't take it - I'll be there in the am as well.

fishin-jay i trust your skills could you grab some for me to, thanks oh and i will remember my paddle this time 

 We were out there today and YES another kayak fish was landed (no...not me). I launched at o'dark thirty and set out in the dark to Tuesdays spot. I was out there for hours and He (we'll call him johnny come lately) comes along, hooks then lands a very fat fish in about fifteen minutes. All In Good Fun ....Congrats "Johnny" ....we will wait for your post.  See you there e a r l y  again. 

By chance (please oh please) can someone pick up some grass shrimp (1/2 lb) for us? The Petalulma shop sold out today and will not have any in the wee hours of the morning....Let me know  Thanks

I have no grassies, but can share some ghost and eel.
Im hoping for a 6am showing at the latest...

I got a pretty overwhelming response on the bait offer so I'm going to have to cut it off early in order to have room in my fridge and a decent shot at survival for the bait. It's going to cost me a bit of WAF to keep these in the fridge, but bringing home a sturgeon would cancel that out, so here's to hoping! 

I'll be picking up 4 dozen ghost and 2 lbs grass.

I'm going to keep a dozen of the ghost and 1/2lb of the grass.
Marmite requested a dozen ghost
I'll bring a 1/2 lb of grass for Otobepelagic
So that will leave 1/2 pound grass and one dozen ghost each for Stromscrambler and Pisciform.

See you in the morning! 

Thank You Fishin-Jay. I will reimburse you in the am. Ravensblack and I will share the grass  with the needy. Thanks Again.    Allen


No, not that kinda grass

Thanks FJ!. See you all early birdly in the am.

BTW, Mike's in Oakland won't have ghost shrimp 'til Tuesday - it actually does fly in (with a little help) - comes from Oregon.

I am gonna try and make it out as well....I am shrimp challenged but I have some squid and 'chovies. I'll also have a stash of beer and plenty of lead sinkers in case ppl need some. Happy to trade or buy a few shrimp. Otherwise I'll make do with what I got.

Mission accomplished! The grass shrimp are FAT too. They are all resting comfortably in the refrigerator. I had the bait shop pack them properly in a large cooler and they assured me that they thought that they should survive no problem. 

BTW, because they are in a cooler, they aren't in bags, so you should bring your own ziplocks or whatever you would like to store your bait in.

More good news is Find-a-Fish and his buddy each had a fish also.
