San Pablo Opener - Friday 2/15/08 Combat Fishing!!!

calls the boat launch area and tells them to come back to the Main Rec area to inspect some kayaks etc etc.

More likely they will send you up to the ramp to be inspected

Major League jealousy that I can't escape to go fishing with the boys.  Knock 'em dead gentlemen!

M'Lady will be there also, making her kayaking debut.

I am not sure we will be able to stay until lunch; depends on what happens at work in the next couple of days.

Looking forward to it!

I am good for some Man Dog fixings mustard, catch-up, relish, chopped onions and paper plates. Should be there around 6:30 or so .

Yeah, I think it opens at 8am due to the mussels... but should I really need to be there around 6am?  never yak there or never been on the opening day...
Hava I bring some chips & water...?

I would plan to get there sometime before 8 AM. I will get there around 6-630 because I get up at 5AM every day and I only live 20 minutes from the lake, so what the heck. Anyway, Pat and Adam will be there and we can talk sturgeon.

UPDATED INFO!
Just got off the landline with the SPR office.
**NO LAUNCHING from MAIN REC.AREA- must be inspected at the (Orinda side) boat launch ramp that OPENS @ **8:ooam.

kinda SUCKS major!   we'll be gettin a late start on the water.....WUTdoTROUTeat4LUNCH?

here are a few pics of the water up at the Dam side.....it's a little stained, but better than it was!...and probably as high as they are going to let it get.
There was a diving crew working on the dam, so I couldn't get down to the shore for a closer look.

Just looking at those pictures has bought my stress level down......aaaaahhhhhhhh....... I am looking forward to this.

All right here is the updated info...

We will launch from the boat launch, opening at 8AM, I will be there at 7 AM.

Shore lunch at the rec area at 2PM unless there are a ton of bank anglers in which case we will dine in Scow Canyon. We have the dogs and drinks covered I think, folks can bring whatever sounds good.

Adam thanks for the intel.
