Good luck. Ill be out on the Sum Fun finally using these damn groupons i bought 5 months ago that expire Tuesday.

Sum Fun. I have many good memories on that boat. Been a long time since iv been on it tho. Ever since I bought my kayak I really haven't been on a open party boat. Seems like a waste to pay the extra money to go on it to fish the same place id fish with my kayak

Ya i hear ya. These were Groupons for 3/4 day with a 7.50 food voucher for 33 dollars. I like to get out on the boats on occasion cause none of my friends have a yak so we just put down some beers and have a good time.

[danjor]

I hear yea. None of my friends have a kayak either so it ends up with me going out solo alot of the time. Need to make friends with some guys on here that go out regularly so I can have some fishing buddy's.

I'll be fishing the Pipe in the morning. Yellow Tarpon 140.

Sum Fun is awesome, I got my nickname while working on that boat.

[danjor]

Ill look for yea put there. Now to start packing my gear...

Well no luck today. Went out found bait at headlands. The monster size smelt were everywhere. After filling the bait tank my fish finder refused to work so I figured since I haven't ever fished dana before i didn't know where the sandy areas were without the finder so I skipped going for halibut and trolled for thresher shark. No bites but the bait did act like it was being chased a few times. Slight breeze with wind chop.

never seen such good sheepshead fishing along the coast here. fished just south of Main Beach on some structure that kept us going for the first 4 hours on pretty awsome sheepshead, sand/calico, sargo, and blue perch with some other bycatch. had i think 4 sheepshead that were over 6 pounds with one pushing 12. Had 3 black seabass caught within about 10 minutes of eachother on the 2nd stop. 2 of which were going at the same time. Also saw the first grey whale to be reported along the california coast this season. Besides the weather it was a good time. saw a couple guys in hobies leaving the harbor to hoop while we were coming in around 445.

[Amish Ed]

I saw you guys leaving. Glad you had a fun day. I posted a report from my day.

[danjor]

Hey Ed I didnt see yea out there. I looked for a bit. I also saw the sum fun boat leave. How did I miss a yellow yak...

[Amish Ed]

Danjor, I was in the channel under the bridge when I saw them leaving. I assume you were already out? I got out later than usual.

[danjor]

Yea I was already out I got out just as the sun was coming up
