Note to self* Sharpen Hooks!!!!

Tried the noon high tide @ Alameda today, had the plan to troll a rebel with worm tail and then

 bounce Popsicles. I'm getting out of the cove still getting things together on the yak and letting

 out line on the troll, pole goes Bendo, "Damm snag",

 click the reel and start to turn back toward the Snag,

 ZZZZZ, ZZZZZZZzzzz... tried to set the hook,  Gone

 So that's 2 nice fish I've lost in so many outings, at least I'm getting some love,

just not following through. Nothing else the rest of my 2 hrs fishing,

Sharpening all hooks tonight

 It was really nice @ 11:30am, by 1:30 Catamaran weather, and only for Daredevils.....

Sweet report, Don!  Too bad about the missed hookups, but a little love IS better than none!     Keep on tryin'!     (and postin'!)

Oh man, not another near miss!!! keep trying Don your due. Decided to bail on sturgeon today? Going to hit China Camp Monday if your off.

Don-

Make them sticky and they'll be self hooking hooks... practically. Better luck next time... like you said, at least your getting some action.

hay don no bait tonight they just are not there,  guess I will just have too give it a couple weeks
and see what happens then

I mite try the no live bait thing in the morning, but I will wake up in the am and see what the weather
looks like
call if you want duane  

Where's the bait?  I tried casting my net at lunch (high tide) for nada.  I did net a bunch of little clear jelly-like round things.  After a bunch of tosses I stopped thinking that I was clearing out a bunch of eggs or something.  Since I didn't have any soldiers I ended up washing the jelly men off the bridge and back into the water with my bucket of water.

So no bait for me and with the full moon I'm planning on sticking around the homestead tomorrow to build some WAF points.

Pleasant surprise to see Paddlefish (Eugene), doing his thing from the fishing pier.
