I received this response and it was both quick and encouraging. Of course now I have to go kill my rumor source !!
Mr. Kimball: the small boater is of great importance to the Harbor District. For this reason we expend considerable resources in dredging annually, and there are no plans for cessation of this activity. In fact, when normally dredging is completed in May or June, we are dredging again now due to late swells and a build up of sand. And we’ll be back next spring doing it all again!
Additionally, we are planning a replacement of the overhead launch, draw works and controls, to prolong the life of this essential facility.
Thank you for expressing your concern, and I will forward your e-mail, and this response, to the Commission.

Friends:
Okay, disregard the part about contacting Harold's secretary about lodging in Sacto (Dorothy). She is not in the office enough to take on this burden.
1. If you are a recreational fisherperson and want to go up to Sacto in the van provided by CCFCC, call Rick Algert to reserve a spot.
2. When you call Rick Algert .. be sure to ask if you are coming back on August 2nd or August 3rd. Then make your own reservations at Vagabond Motel or Holiday Inn (Captial Plaza) .. and CCFCC will reimburse you (assuming that you get least expensive room and are a recreational fisherman).
3. Concerning reimbursements for lodging contact me at (805)544-2424 or cell phone at (805)459-6543.

John thanks for the look/see.
Mel, is there also a meeting in Monterey regrading the MLPA? If so when is that meeting?
This was posted on Bayside Marine's website.
The water was flat calm all day long and it should be nice all week. The water conditions look good to run for Albacore on Thursday and Friday. There was one report of a Albacore being caught today about 60 miles from Santa Cruz. The Albacore anglers had a double hook up and boated one 18 pound Albacore. The water is warm and there are some good signs around 36'30/123'14 where the one fish was caught.

Friends: As you all know there is a crucial meeting of the F&G Commission in Sacramento on August 2nd where they will hear public comment on the MLPA proposals. We were going to rent a large bus for a trip on August 1 with a return on August 2nd late at night. There was not enough interest.
Now we have a 12-passenger van going up on August 1st and coming back on August 2nd or 3rd (not sure on that). There is room available on the van ... and we might be able to get another van if it fills up.
Contact RICK ALGERT at Morro Bay Harbor Office to reserve a spot. Call him for details also at 772-6254. No charge for the transportation. If we get a group of rec. fishermen going ... talk to me about reimbursing you for lodging in Sacramento, paid for by the CCFCC. Or, we could reserve a block of rooms if we have interest. I think that most of the people from our area are staying either at the Holiday Inn (Capital Plaza) on "J" St. or the Vagabond (they are right across the street from each other.
We have rented a meeting room at the Holiday Inn from 3-7 p.m. on August 1st where we will all meet and discuss strategy for the following day. If you are getting to Sacto by some other means ... please try to be at that meeting at the Holiday Inn on August 1.
I will only be in town today, so don't try to contact me on this. Call Rick Algert .. or call Dorothy (Harold Davis' Secretary) at 227-1170.
I will be back on July 31 from Mexico and try to tie all the loose ends together.

Harrell,
Great...what's the email address? Between the bankers hours that Del keeps and the build up of sand it is hardly worth taking the Avocation out there. I've launched 3 times there this year and had to plow across the bar each time!
Thank goodness for the mini-Avocation and the pier
thanks,

Here is an e-mail I sent to the Port San Luis Harbor Commision.
If any of the commisioners read this it sure would be nice to hear from you since we did vote you into office.
Port San Luis Harbor Commision;
Could you please tell me (us) what the future plans are for the small boat hoist and launch . I heard a rumor that there will be no more dredging . If this is true it would make it impossible to launch a small sport boat after the next storms arrive. Even now with the short hours and low tides it is difficult to launch !
What are the future plans for the small recreational boater ?? It appears to us that we are at the bottom of the commision's priority list
Thank you for any info you that you can provide.

just got in...fished the 948 area yesterday morning..off color water , no birds , no bait, no fish...water was 59 degrees....headed up to the elbow found some 59.5 degree water of good color...no birds, no bait, no fish..the only birds i saw were looking even harder than i was..i went as far west as 122.12 to find some warmer water, lots of cold spots in the water....it looked pretty bleak, so i cut my losses and came home...i'd suggest giving it a couple of weeks |

Get On The Bus, Gus...If it were not for Flores we would not even get this chance. He singlehandedly kept the commission from doing what they wanted, that is not let the Aug 2nd and 15th public hearing happen.As President he vetoed their vote..If Flores says to go to the meetings you had better be at both meetings..It is time to go and fight. It is going to take a miricle to keep this area open. Please make plans to go to both meetings, it is the only hail Mary pass we have..Thanks Good Luck John |

Its easy to write a letter, just do it.
July 18, 2006
Dear Fish and Game Commissioners
I ask you to consider Package 1 as the alternative for a network of marine reserves in the Central Coast for the following reasons:
1. Package 1 was a compromise made to meet all scientific requirements. It removes a substantial amount of very productive fishing but will still leave a little for the fishermen.
2. The other packages will cause the few fishermen left to run miles from port to fish causing more fuel usage and greater risk to life.
3. The other packages will all but eliminate fishing from Morro Bay because they put nearly all the rockfish habitat into closure.
Please minimize the negative social economic impacts to the people that use this resource in light of successful adaptive management currently in use.

Steve, We got a nice halibut on sat. at the same old spot then moved a little closer to port and caught some nice rock fish. Good luck to you on friday, and it sounds like you might have planted the fishing seed in your cousin on your trip to Montery, congrats on your kings.
Bye for now, Sheryl |

THIS IS IT!
Just spoke with Mike Flores, Fish and Game commission president. My goal was not to sway his opinion but get his advise. I did express our frustration that after we all worked so hard on something that would meet all the criteria the department would come up with package “P” as a preferred alternative. He said a few things of interest to ours. First that he has not made up his mind on anything. HE NEEDS OUR INPUT. Second he has no idea what the position of the rest of his commission is on this.
His recommendation is that we attend all meetings and write clear, concise, respectful letters and keep them short. "Let them know you are watching" "50,000 petitions would do it." (Those are his words.) He agrees that the commission is not doing their job if they simply accept the department's "railroad job". So the deck is stacked against us but this thing is still up for grabs.
If you have never done anything, this is the time to get off your butt. If you are so tired of it all that you, like me, have practically given up, then this is the final push get off your butt one more time. We have got to come together for this one last fight. Sure, there will be more but this is the big one as far as anyone can see.
Get on the bus August 1st and write some letters. Most of all get some others to do the same. |

Fished out of San Diego on the Sea Adventure 80 last week for 71 Yellowtail, 1 Bluefin, and 1 Dorado. The purse seiners were thick on the water with helocopters and planes netting the Bluefin which most likely scattered the Albies.  |

SST/chlorophyll/weather
Well, the temp is up and the wind is down. Pretty good shots yesterday afternoon. There is water as warm as 62 degrees at the "PSL" buoy and 65 degrees at Arguello canyon where Taurus said he was heading. For the most part the water is clean anywhere you go. Since the latest shots were afternoon shots there is a lot of surface heating and we need to see the night shots to get a good idea of where the breaks might be. The computer models show the wind staying down at least through thursday and maybe longer.
We also fished out of Moss this weekend for a coulple of nice kings and the biggest silver I have seen in 30 years. It was bigger than either of our kings which were 12 lbs. Overall the bite was slow south of the canyon because, as I found out when it was time to go home, the fish moved to the northside of the canyon. Oh well, a day late and a dollar short. |

Coastside fishing club is making it easy to be heard (again). If you value your freedoms and right to fish do it now or forever lose it. Follow the link, Cloud out:
Coastsiders:
The time has come for you once again to act in order to save and preserve our rights as recreational anglers. The California Fish and Game Commission have selected two dates to hear public testimony on the Marine Life Protection Act –the law providing for the establishment of Marine Protected Areas in state waters. We are asking each of you to do two things:
1) Send a letter (email, fax, and hard copy) to the Commission, the Secretary of Resources, Governor Schwarzenegger, and your state senator and assembly member in support of 'Package 1'.
2) Attend one or both of the special Fish and Game Commission hearings on the MLPA again supporting Package 1.
The following link will make it fast an easy to send e-mails. There is also more details on the topic
http://home.comcast.net/~lyndaabbott/coastside_mlpa/MLPA.html#details
Good Luck

Just got back from Monterey. Fished out of Monterey on Sunday. Decided to launch there as opposed to Moss because the numbers folks were posting were closer to Monterey and I was fishing in my skiff, so a down hill run in the afternoon seemed like a better idea.
Took my 13 year old cousin out for his first time fishing in the salt! It was a bumpy day, but he was a trooper and stuck it out...although he got pretty green a few times. Took us a while to find the fish, but we eventually got into them at 42 and 52 (about 6 miles N of Monterey). Didn't have out first knock down until about 10:30. Handed the rod off to my cousin and I started winding up the down rigger (from 115'!!!). I looked over and saw him still holding the rod by the butt and the line limp...I guess I forgot to tell him to reel! Needless to say the fish got off. About a half hour later another knockdown on the purple haze/hot spot at 115' (220' of water). This time I coached him a little more and he kept the tip up and reeled the fish in after a steller jump (strange for a king) and a couple of good runs. It was a nice 12# fish. About 15 mins later another fish on and this time it is my turn. I battle the fish to the boat and Ethan does a fine job of netting his first fish, a 14# king. We had one more fish on...it hit his rod with a 1 pound ball. It was on for a bit, but he kinda forgot the reeling thing again and it got off. Headed in at noon with two nice kings. It was a little bumpy, but fine until noon.
The water looked nicer today and less fog. Took 30 Cuesta College students to the aquarium today...man I would like sure like to catch one of those 400# bluefin in the Outer Bay tank!!!
Fishing friday for halibut. Ed and Sheryl how did you guys do this weekend?
best fishes,

 Hi old fishing buds:It's sort of puny to advertise this with a recently stunning photo of that 30# salmon taken off Moss Landing, but... here in New Zealand in the winter, when the LFT,YFT, marlin and kingfish-aka yellowtail-have moved north to Tonga, we catch these little gems by the barrelful. Best tasting fish I've ever encountered-'Snappah'(pagrus auralus). EMERALD will be sailing back to CA by Sept this yr in time to chase the last of the LFT. Best of luck to you all. See you then>>Rick |

I'm looking at the possibility of running for albacore on Friday. The weather is supposed to be great and the water's edge looks like it has moved in to about 60 mi at the elbow. I'd like to know if any other boats will be planning to run then.

I reckon my weather perdiction for Cambria fishing yesterday was just the opposite of what it was. That must qualify me to work side-by-side with Jim Burn (A local meteroligist) And why not ? I gradeated from the 6th grade. Ain't nothin' makin' a perdiction that don't pan out.
Good seeing you yesterday Stacey. It's been awhile. Sorry mother nature wasn't cooperative. Still some nice quality fish caught. |

Hey guys,
I've been drinking with a few neighbors and were a little pissed:
I began fishing out of leffigwell once I completed my schooling and could afford to fish. I started out on Virges and Patriot. Also shore fishing when I had the chance.
I used to be into deer hunting and due to housing and vineyard developement I have not been able to pursue that recreation.
I've read thru Mel's recomendations and I feel that it is best to comply with his strategy: Anyone that cares to about their Right to Fish should do someting at this time.
I'm not one to protest or make any public oposition towards Government policy, but
It is time to stand up and be heard. Bob or Mel please correct me if I'm wrong: I feel that we have been targeted for the initial phase of MPA's due to the fact that we are politically weak, we have a small population of salties and have been targeted by backdoor deals that make southern california the last to be impacted by MPAs.
United Anglers of Southern California are a bunch of CSeers, ( I mean rooster fish to keep this civil) .
We went fishing today and it was bumpy. I feel that mother nature dictates the limits of our fishing: I always take what I'll need to feed my family.
Leffingwell was visited by perhaps 8 boats today, I took 6 fish.
I can't do the RTF sponsored bus, but I'll take the Tahoe up for a day trip. I have 2 seats available. |

steve- i fished solo this morning out of moss. literally hundreds of boats out on the water. i would get out as early as you could. it was pretty much an early bite. the wind came up at about noon but it was fishable. everyone was concentrated on a spot about 6 miles south from moss. but i heard some guys on the radio getting a few fish in the soquel hole area. the bite was slow at best.i managed two fish one 8lbs and one 31lbs. and several silvers. lost another big king to a furbag. 200' of water down 90 to 130. red flasher purple haze worked best but my big fish came on a blue kajiki hoochie.
good luck if you go. |

Fished Estero Bay for no salmon this morning. I stayed in shallow and ran up past Cayucos. It was lumpy and cold. Bright spot was landing an 11 lb. halibut off Constantine Rock in the sun. We used live anchovies (pretty small) I lost at least one other good halibut drifting along the kelp in 25 to 35 feet of water.

Well it was nice catching rockfish while it lasted. Oh, you don't know. The department of fish and game is going to make every spot you want to fish out of bounds. People, if you don't stop everything and I mean everything and go to Sacramento on August 2nd and phsically protest this is going to happen..this is not chicken little running around this is really a critical situation for this area. We will need all the help we can get and I'm not sure we can pull this one off. One thing is for sure I am going to try are you??? Good luck John |

Concerning the hearing in Sacramento. Is there an address where it is located and will there be a demonstration by fishermen?
Thanks
