Tomales, yesterday and today

WTHookEm'Fellas!!!  heading out into fog, then seeing what should be there, when it should be, must be a vry pleeeezing feeling.(relief) Thanks for the pics of the fish in a bowl!  can you follow it up with the cooked pics too?

Pa'~ are you holding out? we need more details! 

Congrats, fellas, and thanks for the reports!

What time has the wind been coming up? I'm debating on Paradise or Tomales tomorrow. Conditions look better at Paradise, though.

Conditions for Tomales on Sunday look pretty good...wind-wise.

  Great report, and FAC conditions in Tomales, can't beat that!  Have you ever had the nerve to run out the mouth and fish for rockies around the corner?  Generally considered some of the most dangerous conditions around but I used to take my 14 foot klamth out on calm days and nail big rockies and lings, also had great white jump and land very near a boat that had followed me out (another 14 foot klamath).  It turned out they only went out because they saw me do it and were from Sac and had never been on the ocean before!  Wouldn't you know they have a great white almost land in their boat.  It sounded like a volks wagon hitting the water and I caught it out of the side of my eye.  They paniced and headed in, even though I told them the chance of a shark jumping on their boat was pretty slim! 

Right on Juan, Congrats on your catches.

Ya the wind picked up around...what 1-ish or so I think I am not all that sure I was...*hangs head* in a boat...so I didnt notice..

Well I was out there all morning till I got blown off, for nada. No fun fishing in whitecaps... I packed up my stuff and as I was about to leave a guy says, hey is it laying down out there? I say, na it's just calmer over here. I went to the dirt parking lot and took a nap and then drove over to Marshal. Sure enough the winds were laying down. There were still plenty of boats out, so I decided to unpack and put in again. Catch bait in a couple minutes. Drop down for an immediate grab and run. Swing and a miss.... The bait was shredded. Classic hali teeth marks. I keep at it and get two more pulldowns, resulting in a 26 and 30"ers. Made it well worth while putting in the effort. I was off the water by 6:30...Nice.
