rockcod and lingcod opener where ya going?

my plan B would be Half Moon Bay....if the beach launch does not look good at Linda Mar or anywhere else, HMB would be a great alternate = protected Harbor launch + short paddle to the fishing grounds + Ono Hawaiian Grill close by

doesnt that suck how you have to go around if you decide to hit HMB? and you know that there will be frickin traffic too now that Devil's slide is closed down.

true -  but I'll make a decision by Firday night - with the help of a swell forecast.

Wind forecast 15-25 kts Saturday afternoon.

Sunday and Monday 20-30 kt.

15-25 Sat-Mon for Pigeon Pt to Pt Piedras Blancas.

They have been wrong often this year.  Crossing my fingers!

Santa cruz was whitecaps by 2pm today when I got a look.  Not huge swell, but blown out.

thank you

People usually fish for salmon first because salmon bite best in the grey of dawn.  When the sun comes out they go out farther and deeper.  Rockfish are always available.

Randy and I will of course be spending the weekend primarily in Carmel Bay.  If anyone else is coming this way, say hi.....................

After two weeks of non-stop landscaping/repairing/remodeling we are not ready to hit the water but will manage with enthusiasm if not with flair!

Hi! I Hope to catch up with you two at Stillwater over the weekend. Tim

Team Bodega will be doing Fort Ross. bsteves has a prior engagment Sunday, but I will look for salmon out of Bodega Bay or off my beach if the swell stays down.

Since my usual partner is off catching giant roosterfish in Baja, I'll have to hit our favorite lingcod/cabezon hotspot without him and his dorado catching son. When I show him my pics of rockfish, cabezon and lingcod limits he's going to be .....alright he probably won't be jealous, damn I wish I was in Baja.  Anyways if anyone wants to hit up the north side of Caspar cove on Saturday I'd welcome the company, I was thinking about fishing out front a little and if the wind or swell picks up, I'd come just inside the cove which is just as productive.

Just to introduce myself on the board, my name is Joe and I'm usually with scwafish.  He's usually post my pics for me but know he's got me hooked on the site.  Can't wait to meet you guys at Elk.

Anybody interested in Pacific Grove...Otter Cove-Coral Street, on Saturday AM? If not I'd like to try Stillwater.
I'm a newbie  with some experience with rockfish.

Mike

Tim and Morgan...

Welcome to the board!   
 
We'll be at Stillwater on Sat and probably try Pacific Grove on Sunday or Monday.  Remember the 17 Mile Drive gate opens at 6:00, so don't show up *too* early!



Randy

I have Monday 7-3 available to fish- Do you guys think HMB is doable with the current forcast for Monday?  I'm a bit of a rookie; already crashed once with Fuzzy Tom  last year and I don't want a repeat!

Jody

Pat/Randy,

I'll be at the launch spot at Carmel around 0600 to 0700.  Look forward to seeing you both out there. 

I know for sure I will be there, and John and Anna may be there also.  I met them through Ed and they are just getting started in yak fishing. 

Sad day for me as Ed left town for good yesterday......

Jim

I'm going to miss Ed.  Good company on the water and willing to try new things.  I guess he never got his own local salmon.  I'm sure he's paid his dues, but he goes from military duty in Monterey to duty in Hawaii!  I expect good fish stories from him from there.
