I have been contacted by a research group for DFG three times in the past several months (by phone) wanting to know how often I go out fishing, from where, for what , and now they want to have me fill out a log every time I go out with all this info to be mailed back to them every month. They also ask about lobsters. Anyone had these calls or any idea of how this might be used by DFG? I would hate to think that I am drilling holes into my own hull every time I answer their questions. Eric, as far as the halibut go, we dive and fish for them evey year at PSL. I went out to look today and saw only one after three hours in the water. I would guess that they are starting to trickle in and should really get going in a few weeks. Best of luck! - Aaron Floyd |

I am sadened beyond words at the passing of my friend Jody Giannini. I have just come in from a day fishing to pick up the paper and discover the news. The store will never be the same. Always there with friendly help, it was just a couple of days ago he called me to make sure I knew the parts I ordered were in. John |

OK. Looks like we're leaning heavily toward overnighting in PSL Sunday night. Will have my 2.5 year old daughter along so I'm not sure if we'll venture outside the harbor or not. Hopefully it will be flat calm and my daughter will be a trooper. She usually is. If not... Anyone do any halibut exploring lately in PSL? |

Hey Delta Darryl; Good name , spent 12 years as a liveaboard in the delta at tower park , lots of good fishing. Ok yea you can take them out on a virgs boat and you can expand your perch adventures to some other places , some of us guys have done real good north of the rock for the bigger perch. I would say any where from the CAYUCOS pier to about sixth street would be a good bet, fish the last hour of the top of the tide , use them motor oil grubs , sliding sinker , go get em ,,, good luck , above all enjoy the special time with them kids BLACKIE/SR |

Should'a been here yesterday seemd to be the words on the water today. Went out of Morro Bay today and did ok considering how the radio sounded, and the game warden indicated when we came in (16 boats and 2 salmon counted prior to ours). We were able to scratch up 3 keepers for 3 strikes, straight out in front of the rock in 185 Ft. out to 220 Ft. off Estreo Pt. No real size with largest going 11# to a 23" taking the junior division. All fish came on crocodiles. Good luck if you go. Doug |

Eric: Slip-wise, we are pretty much full, as most of our permanent slip holders (all commercial fishermen) are home. The few slips that aren't filled with the permanent guys are filled with others. But when you get the boat here, go ahead and call the Harbor Patrol on channel 12 and ask. You never know. Option #2 would be to anchor out in our designated anchorage. It's at the north end of the permanently moored boats, immediately west of the channel line. Again, call the HP for directions. The first 5 days are free, so it's your most economical bet. And I guarantee you a great night's sleep with the sound of the water gurgling against the hull. Plus you get a little practice with your anchor gear, which is always a good thing for everybody in my book. Option #3 would be to tie to our "floating dock." It's a 40 or so foot dock in our anchorage area. As of today, one side of it was wide open. Option #4 would be to side-tie to another boat on one of our two commercial piers. One pier is right outside our office next to the Coast Guard. The other is next to the Great American Fish Co. restaurant on the water. As for PSL, they have many guest moorings and a couple great places to anchor out too. And they'll have the gurgle-factor as well. Their Harbor Patrol is on channel 12 too. But whatever you do, HAVE FUN with the family!! Eric Endersby Morro Bay Harbor Patrol |

Are there guest ties/moorings available in Morro or PSL? When I go up to Moss we usually get there the night before and get an end tie for $10. In Morro I have usually just spent the night in the boat on the trailer. I'm taking my wife and young daughter out on the boat sun/monday. First time out for the little one. I don't really want to stay on a lake and troll for trout with the Farallon again but I do want to stay on the boat on the water with the family. |

Exploritory Tuna Trip: I tossed out the idea of putting together a small group of guys from this board to run outside the 1908 to have a little look around. I talked with Roger today from Patriot Sport Fishing and it looks like we will put something together but it will have to be mid week ie. Monday Or Tuesday. Looking to keep the boat load to a minimum (around a dozen or so guys) Cost will be kept down to cover fuel and the cost of the crew. This would be a great way to put some of the local private boat owners on the same boat for a day. If intersted shoot me an email, and like I said I will have more info on Monday. |

Stacey, To answer your question about events which could affect chlorophyll concentrations... During the spring and early summer, while there is still significant wind and/or swell activity and the sun moves more overhead each day , there occurs a spring bloom of phytoplankton i.e. chlorophyll in the surface layers of the ocean in our region. The sun, as it "moves" farther north, penetrates deeper into the water column. Strong winds combined with swell activity increase the "depth of mixing", mixing nutrient-rich water from deeper in the water column into the "euphotic" or sun-lit zone. This is like adding fertilizer to a garden that has healthy plant populations and plenty of water, but a shortage of food. The result is a Spring bloom of algae and phytoplankton, which will show up on images like Terrafin as high chlorophyll concentrations. The good news is that these phytoplankton are the primary producers of energy for the rest of the food chain, and they are fairly quickly consumed by zooplankton. The water color will soon return to normal... maybe in as little as 1 week, but usually 2 weeks or so, and what is left is an abundance of zooplankton (shrimp, copepods, crab larvae, etc) meaning lots of life like birds, baitfish, etc... all the ingredients for albacore stew. Don't mean to spout off, but I earned a degree in Oceanography from Humboldt State and don't get to use it except in cases like this! I will be ready to go whenever you good people on fisreports decide it's time to go looking. THe diablo forecast sounds really really promising! Paul |

I was taught to make sure my brain was in gear before my mouth was in motion. I obviosly do not adhere to that rule. I 1st fished with Virge some 52 years ago. I hold them partly responsible for my addiction to the sea. My apologies again John. John |

Sorry to hear about the tough perch fishing Mike. Those fish have already finished dropping their live young from the fall spawn. Was not as wide open as a few weeks ago, but I did manage to pull a dozen or so working a little harder than normal. We are running outside for Salmon on Thursday and probably will run again on Saturday for either Salmon or Halibut. For those that are still interested in an exploration run for the tuna, I called Port San Luis today. Will talk to Roger tomorrow and see what we can put together. I dont see that water moving in for another few weeks, so may have to support our local sport boats for our first run. John Rowley: I will be calling Virg's tomorrow to get prices for a charter with the guys from Fishreports.net on an exploritory. Usualy a crew trip, but thought we may be able to help each other out by taking the local Private Boat guys out for the first trip of the year. Lots of experience on this board .... could be a great way to put up some numbers for our local landings. Dustin |

Picked up 2 salmon outside the rock this morning in about 190' and 65' down after hurling my breakfast in that confused crappy sea, nice red meat for the BBQ though. Went for the barn at 9:30. Bloody Decks Forever!! |

Dustin; went to the perch hole today took a couple of my fishing club members , I got a zero lots of salad in the water , one of the guys with me got two nice fish , the guy that lives in the little red house at the top of the stairs was fishing off the rocks, and caught 4 fish. Lay down wind so we can get some of those fish with the long fins, saw a doc on the tube last night on tuna farming BLUEFINS what a trip, looks like the way of the future. Blackie/Sr |

Harrell, We all know that wind chop can create surface cooling that distorts the terrafin SSTs, Do you know of any conditions which may effect upon the surface that would distort chlorophyll readings? Also, Dustin asked the question a couple of weeks ago about color designation of chlorophyll levels compared to last years homemade charts? If you have a quick answer I'd appreciate it. As a side note, We still have plenty of room on the Baja trip to San Quintin in early July. Should be lots of fun. I'll try to add a few photos to the link at the top of the page during the next week or so. Mark, you were right it was a head gasket, found degredation near the upper cylinder and a dreaded "hanging chad" blocking 90% of the water flow to the head. Motor runs good now. Thanks! |

Carl, The clean warm water is still 70+ miles from the rock. We will venture out if it pushes inside 50 ... until then its a waiting game. When the NW winds stop that water should warm up and move into range. |

Hey Mike .. I will let you know if I go over this week for sure. Planning on putting the boat in the water this weekend as well for some flatty fishing. Those perch have been a blast but its time to go find some flat ones for the dinner table. Still planning on trying to put together a charter if that water continues to stay off the 1908. Have about 6 or 7 guys intersted at the moment. Will keep you updated. Dustin |

Sorry John Roley, I just came to the wrong conclusion. Of course they didn't lay on the decks in the sun. I must have got there after they were laid out on the deck. I stand corrected. There were still some put in car trunks and some laying out in the sun on a flatbed. I know Virge's would not let them lay. I should have thought about it more. John |

The salmon on Virg's boat did not lay on the hot deck for hours. They were taken out of the bait tank from regular cold sea water washes. When the boat got in they were laid on deck for a few minutes so they could sort out the fish who they belonged to. Hopefully some of the people got them on ice soon. |

Starter problems on Good Karma forced me to haul out for a few days,so I fished rockcod on the princess from virg`s last sunday.We fished swimbaits,jigs,and frozen squid, just north of villa creek in 230-240 for wide open action on big reds,white bellies,starries,and a few keeper lings.We had easy limits for 25 people in 2-3 hrs.Most interesting was three commercial salmon trollers looking real busy repeatedly boxing the same area.I`ve been kind of lazy this season and have not ventured far from the Rock in search of salmon...but will definitely check this area out later in the week when I get the starter issue resolved.If anyone ventures up that way sooner,please post results |

Now that MJ has been acquitted, I can finally concentrate on fishing.......Heh Heh Fair looking bait at Virge's. Everyone on the salmon boat limitted out. Water will be rougher tomorrow, but the bite is hot. Can't believe all those salmon laid on the hot deck all those hours. Then people were just putting them into their trunks and going for lunch or something... One guy just laid them on his flatbead and went off somewhere. What a waste. One passenger said he was catching at less than 50'. Anyone going outside this weekend? John |

The salmon bite was good today. I had to get off the water early but before we got one Harrell had at least four and others were doing about the same in 190 feet of water off the Rock. Bob |

>TOO FUNNY! ...Come on up Dave! I will take the day off and meet you guys over there if its during the week. Perch were small to start with, then got the slabs later on the incoming. Got tired of getting SH&*T for fishing the conventional, so had to pick up the light stuff. Same spot .... right and left side of that rock produced. There are some guys running Friday offshore if the weather holds. I cant run until I get into the new house and get the boat situated. Let me know whats up for the week. 2 1/2 hour drive for 3lb Perch ...well not sure if I would call that desperate, but crazy maybe! Dustin |

Was over at the Perch hole in Cayucos again yesterday for about 4 hours. Started slow then n the incoming turned on for about an hour and a half. Fished 4lb test stuff on a micro Fenwick and was a blast on the slab BSP. Pulled a SandShark (Angle Shark) that was hooked in the tail. Took a good 20 min on the light gear. About a dozen BSP and the one shark, all released. Wind was calm yesterday until about 3pm ..... heard the Salmon bite was good as well. Dustin |

Must have been good salmon fishing today (Sunday). I was down at Virge's checking on bait (maybe tomorrow) and the salmon boat came back early with limits all around. (According to a passenger I spoke with.) He said they were using big green dodgers, but that is all he knew about it. Billy Boy will try again tonight for bait. Too rough to put the nets out during the day, they said. Bait is supposed to run $25/scoop, $8/1/4 scoop. I remember when it was $5/scoop. Guess that shows how old I am. John |

Dustin; I found your fishing hole today , went over to your old digs and went north to all the rocks , caught the poop out of the big barred perch brought home my limit of them big dudes 3# changed my gear over to the fresh water spinning and the same setup you turned me on to , man they fight good on the light gear, water was rough but the wet suit makes it easy to fish those HOLES. Hope the weather lays down so we can get after those longfins . Are you in your NEW digs yet ? Blackie/SR |

John; Lets see if I understand what you are saying; if I have a commercial license (which I don't) for a small boat that I fish both sport and commercial on I must have the permit before I can even fish sport. Is that correct? |

one more thing,...the permit is required by federal law...it clearly states that commercial vessels cannot fish untill they have the permit...these days, in commercial fishing, thumbing your nose to the feds is not an option....that is if you want to keep fishing |

Good ! I wasn't going to get one anyway. The information included with the permit application wasn't really very clear. John, did you get an application in the mail ? I heard that some guys did. |

Harrell, I heard rumors of this, although I was told it was only going to be for commercial use. Guess I was mistaken. |

it's looking like we may get a shot at offshore waters towards the end of next week (according to NCAR GFS model)...NOGAPS model , for some reason, hasn't made a run since the 7th..i wouldn't count on the window..too far in the future ...lately it seems the only prediction that is accurate is from windy to windier....if it happens, i'll be out there......john |

Gang: Another tidbit on fishery regulation: I just learned that my favorite hog hole is off limits to fishing. It's a high spot (120 feet at it's shallowist) surrounded entirely by water over 240 feet deep. According to the wardens, rocks, reefs, and pinnacles, even if shallower than 240, in deep water CANNOT be fished for rockfish. This was a ruling made by the DFG Marine Region folks, not just the opinion of one warden. Just a head's up guys. Some of you probably already know this, but I heard some guys talking about fishing Church Rock outside MB the other day, which falls into this category. Sorry. And Dustin, my boat deal is not coming along very well. My current boat is in all liklihood sold, and the one that I have my offer on, the guy that owns it is getting seller's remorse and may be changing his mind. We'll see. Thanks for the offer and hopefully I can take you up on it. Eric Endersby MB Harbor Patrol |

Well looks like there would be about a half dozen guys willing to look into a charter. If that water ends up holding off the 1908 next week I will make some phone calls and see if we can put this together. Eric, Hows the new boat coming together? May end up taking you up sharing fuel costs if I dump the boat in the middle of the season. I probably wont look at stepping up to a new boat until next season at the earliest. I do know that I will be most likely heading over to Harrold Davis to have a new Bahia built. finances and the business will dictate exactly what I step into, but I am almost certain I will buy a Davis. Look forward to seeing you back over this direction soon. Dustin |

Hey all, I'm up in Newport, Oregon and some guys caught albacore today (John on the Myrtle Bee). They were 60 miles out off of Heceta Banks (SW of Newport). The fish were around 20 pounds. This is no rumor but a verified report. If they are up here, YOU KNOW that they are off the Central Coast. Let's not let these Oregonians show us up again this year. Had a nice day on the water yesterday...lots a 80 pound halibut at the boat, pulled a harpoon after a valient battle. Landed several other nice fish. Snotty ocean today, lost a big fish. Been up here 8 days, rained 6!!! Realized why I moved back home Hope the wind lays down. Best fishes, Steve |

Gang: While the canary rockfish mistaken identity has gone down, the folks over at DFG are still concerned that they are being mistaken for vermillion rockfish and being retained by recreationnal anglers. To that end, they requested me to re-post the link to the i.d. guide that they put together. To me, the simplest distinction (besides the grey lateral line) is the "swallow tail" that Sharon over at Virg's told us about. The link is: http://www.dfg.ca.gov/mrd/canary_id.pdf Thanks for listening! Eric Endersby MB Harbor Patrol |

As requested, here is my recepe for the tequilla lime serrano sauce, I will try to make the portions of ingredients somewhat generic A pat or two of butter is melted in a frying pan (iron) saute 2-5 serrano chilis, chopped into rounds, untill you smell them' Add tequilla (I use 2oz) reduce by 1/2 this may involve FLAMES Reccomended for over the BBQ outside,add juice of at least 4 or more limes reduce a little add heavy cream (I use about 4oz) Heat gently untill sauce is thick and bubbly. Pour over Grilled Thresher Shark, or on BBQ oysters and let grill untill brown (carmelized) This is an award winner. Mike |

I trolled for salmon today from daylight to 8:00 am. Trolled from 100 to 250 foot of water for only one hit. Fished in front of the rock and the weather was a little sloppy. Bob |

The people (ALIENS) that I have been comunicating with are very patient. They are in the middle of thier collections and I though it would be funny and sugest to them...collect all the seals and sea lions you want. They got what I though was a little perturbed at this suggestion and said they were through with what I interpreted as the mammals on this planet. I tried to tell them that this would help the local populas in this area that it would help and they replied positively,I don't know what this means but it sounded good to me (that was my felling). They are dealing with alot of bycatch and are tired of the same fish due to thier atractants they are using. The do not recognize the law here and are part of a law of space? time? galaxy? I could not understand what they were trying to convey. They ensure that the populus of our fish will return no matter what we do. "Do not worry and enjoy fishing" is all they would repeat when asked questions at this time. I think they are iritated by me, as the sierra club and green peace. "Do not worry and enjoy fishing""Do not worry and enjoy fishing""Do not worry and enjoy fishing""Do not worry and enjoy fishing" this is all they start saying when asked to many questions. they seem really intelligent and think it is a liitle amusing that the DFG is thinking this is the end..."Do not worry and enjoy fishing""Do not worry and enjoy fishing""Do not worry and enjoy fishing""Do not worry and enjoy fishing""Do not worry and enjoy fishing""Do not worry and enjoy fishing""Do not worry and enjoy fishing""Do not worry and enjoy fishing""Do not worry and enjoy fishing""Do not worry and enjoy fishing""Do not worry and enjoy fishing" |

Just an idea .... With the hard temp break and blue water moving closer and closer to the 1908 was wondering if anyone was interested in chartering a boat from either Darby or Steve and taking a exploritory trip. That water should be within range for some of us very soon, but itching to get out and see if that break is holding. Would also be nice to have a group of "sticks" on the trip so we could attempt to put up some numbers for either one of the landings. I would be willing to run mid-week if the weather dictates a good window for the 70 mile run. I am sure there will be a crew trip planned soon and this could help out with the cost of fuel if we could get enough guys to put together a charter. Post here or email me and see if its a possiblity. Dustin |

Right on Mike! BBQ Thresher rocks! Shark Burgers this way: Mix up a little mayo with diced fresh jalapenos, finely chopped cilantro and a squeeze of fresh lime juice. You can put in a little taco seasoning too if you like. BBQ a shark filet and put it on a burger bun smeared with your mayo mix w/ lettuce, red onion and tomato. AAAAHHHHH |

I have a real clean boat for sale. Is it acceptable to post it on this site? I don't want to be "Out of Line" Also have some other good gear. Tell me how it is. And, How does a guy become a member? I know I'm stupid, but I can't see how to create an account. John |

When releasing fish with the bladder out of the mouth, I too used to puncture it and think I did the right thing. I have tried the needle venting method, but it is tricky and I feel I did more internal damage trying to find the bladder. The method I use now is quick and easy. Have a rod with a 1 lb. weight attached to the swivel on the end of the line. Attach a 4/0 or 5/0 hook about a foot above the weight. Attach the hook upside down (Point facing down toward the weight). The barb needs to be COMPLETELY mashed down or ground off. Then, just take the hook and stick it through the lower jaw from inside the mouth and sticking out underneath the jaw. Then slowly lower the fish until you feel him fighting again or until you hit bottom. Then gently jerk upward on the rod until you feel that the fish is gone. After a couple tries, it becomes quick and easy. |
