3/15 ARWNADA

launched ~2:30 was a day of changing conditions. Kayakers at the ramp coming in warned of wind and I considered packing back up but decided to   give it a shot.

Drifted da sex herring across the flag pole hole several times.The wind and the tide were cancelling each other out so trolled a herring behind a dodger out to the outer wall, marked a lot a bait (presumably jack smelt) but no hits. Wind and white caps came up and rode them back several of the wind waves were quite sporty! It was exciting but packed up and headed out at 5:30 fishless again at ARW....

I won't even try this year for halibut in the bay until summer or the end of summer. All the freshwater has pushed out the chovies.

Thanks for the report.  I might try for a but crab combo at HMB on Saturday AM, still lobbying da wife.
