Bodega crab opener sat.11/5

Found this interesting in the USAFishing article:

Weather
The weather forecast (posted below) calls for decent weather on Saturday, breezy conditions on Sunday and calmer winds but high swell conditions returning on Monday. Last season we saw the loss of several lives of sport crabbers who pushed out in weather far too rough for their vessel or experience.
For you private boaters I would recommend my simple swell + wind speed equation to evaluate the conditions. If the swell height + the wind speed = more than 20 conditions are too sloppy for the majority (not all) of sport boats. An example of 12 knots of wind + an 8 foot swell will = 20.

Should be on the Road in about an hour, have to stop in sonoma to get some fresh tortillas for the fiesta. I figure so many crab cooking pots will be there I will just use one if thats cool.

Can I show up for the party?

Still in Sonoma, should be on our way in 30 minutes.

It's NCKA, what kind of question is that?

Good lucks guys and don't forget a thick blanket + rain gears!

Kids are excited, i am too! Be on our way after some shut eye!

Blowing out here, 18-20 mph. Lots of pots in the water already. Such BS. Where is DFG?

I'll be putting my pots next to those pots at dawn!

At least you got your trailer, I feel like the tent is going to fly away.

I will also be putting my pots next theirs.

About to load up and head to Blow-dega Bay!
