Its still smokey and unpleasant, but me and Hydrospider couldn't take it any more and got out on the water.  We looked for smallies with jigs and agents.  We never found any hungry smallies but we did have a scool of dink stripers give us a drive by that resulted in a fun double.  We were off the water at 10 as the smoke started getting thick...again!

When you're already married to a cute younger woman you have to come up with something else for a mid-life crisis! 

My friend in Portland is doing it for me.  Started it last October and have had about 13-14 hours of work so far, need about 8 more hours to finish it off.  See you next week brother!

Well I took a little time off from fishing to put a check mark next to "KILL A DEER WITH A BOW" on my list of things to do this summer.  Sorry I missed you guys yesterday.  KB

Nice to hear some action out at Mendo. Too bad to hear about the smoke though. I guess there's a major fire nearby throwin' a wrench in it?

And KB, although it's not a fish pic... at least you went bow hunting. Props son!

Sean,

The tattoo is looking great.  Last time I saw it, you had just started and it was still a little too fresh.

See you next week as well.

Nice A zone buck KB and nice stripers scwa.  I have been busy with 6 hot chicks in my garage for the past couple of weeks. :smt117  That project is almost complete and as soon as the wind dies it is rockfish/hali time out at the coast.

I think it was read somewhere the average person in the U.S. ingests 3 1/2 pounds of dust and dirt from the air every year. This year we are all exceeding the average. Nice job on the stripers. Is the smoke keeping the crazies off the water?

Thanks for the report guys and way to pick a few stripers out of a tough bite.  Bait or artificials?  later...

Shawn, love the tat!! Question for us that are going the mid life crisis as you are, what does one like that cost? I'm thinking about one that size to cover one up that I had gotten when I was younger. Thanks  :smt006
