Poopy Paradise

Showed up at Paradise pier found nyoki ( Murdered your Handle, I'm really tired, sorry
 and the Park Ranger with a " Beach Closed " sign

 There have been numerous Raw Sewage spills recently from some where in Marin and now the Park Ranger says he See's " Floaties "...

 Long story longer, The " Master Ranger " phones in says " Let them Yak at Their Own Risk "   

 It's On!!! Call back Hunter and let him know the " Good News " and the Gang shows...

 Did look a little disgusting, if your thinking it was " Poop " floating out there, but Really it had the
   looks and " Smell " of Algae.... I hope ... OK, enough poty talk, How bout the Fishing....

 Slow and Hot, as in Temperature...

 Few take downs here and there, few 21 and 3/4's shakers, Bat Rays, Leopards and Good Times
Hanging with NCKA type folks....

 Missed the BQ, but did pick up The Fellas with 1 minute to spare,

and caught my first Hali on a Fish Trap,   got 2 other take downs on this color,

Good luck tomarrow, I'll be on the water too, FireBoat 5 on the Sacramento River..

 I'll Bring my Camera.. ..

Nice!  You rigged your fish trap up side down but I guess it didn't matter.  WTG

Great pics&port, as the mADmAnM himself says, but I think your spell-check from Arkansas has transferred from your computer into your brain, Don!     

Floaties AND a BBQ - potentially nasty combo!   

Looking forward to those fireboat pics!  (Hope you don't accidentally get some topless coeds on innertubes shots  )

 Maybe there is a relation here, thanks for the tip on the Trap ,

 As far as spelling, I've always felt,

 "If you can't spell a word at least 3 Different ways....

 Your not really trying, or very creative"....

I was loaded up ready to go this morning  thought I would find out how the Friday crew did read Danglin poopy report and decided to flush that trip till next time , good luck to you guys .

Yup, nice day on the water, no fish for me but had a big hit on a live chovie that destroyed it but didnt stick... was goint to hit it today but have a on-boat wedding to attend today, good luck guys!
Might be able to hit it this week again, nice to drive down instead of the wheel/hill/elk training.

Did you guys catch any Headless Brown Trout...I hear they are quite tasty.  Be sure and boil them first though.

Nice fish...I'm thinking of heading out to Alameda or Berkeley next week (live bait!).
By the way, not to be a party-pooper, so to speak, but we shouldn't be netting undersize halibut, or any halibut to be released. The net can cut their tails and fins which get infected and can kill the fish...it's referred to as "fin rot." Halibut are going to see a LOT of pressure in the coming years, so we need to take care of the babies...Like I said, I'm not trying to spoil the party, it's just an FYI.

 No, good point, this particular Hali's tail was a mess.  Hardly anything there!!!!  Usually with the Babes I do get a Release in the water, Kind of thought this one was going to be dinner.


 Guess that Fin rot saved his Life, for now.....

Is that the "Corn eyed, peanut back ,Russian River strain" or a sub-species?

I think they look like this:

WTG danglin.  Glad to see you get the hali.  Adam it seems to me you are always at paradise...don't you have a job.  Why is raw sewage spilling into the harbor this time of the year?

I work Mon thru Thurs.....Play from Friday to Sun   I'm not complaining at all Jim!   thanks for noticing buddy!

It was great meeting everyone.

Thanks for such a great time and a great lunch on Friday - Thanks FisHunter for putting this together!! 

The fish could have been a bit more cooperative.  I think there were just enough bites to keep things interesting most of the day.   I thought the fish (unlike us) were staying away from Paradise because of the "crappy" water.  But we did  see at least 3 fish landed from the pier as we ate lunch.
