today was a big whale day in Asuncion....it was flat calm, no wind and the horizon was full of spouts all day long...great to have the grays back
again. Yesterday and today were summer like conditions...today it got up to 86 degrees!!!!
fanfriggintastic!!!!

Woody,
Imagine, a cosmic convergence of Karmic harmony with John Fogerty singing background. We dance in the waves fishing for cobina to the sound of
Creedence Clear Water Revival blaring full blast from the open doors of the rusted robin egg blue 3/4 ton flatbed truck backed into the waves so the
local guy could use it as a rod holder! Iflyfish on clamshell castinetes.

Whale Ho! Cape Asuncion!! Two points off the starboard bow!
THAR SHE BLOWS!
"Oh, ye demon fish! Hear me now, lads!...A gold coin for the first shipmate to sink his harpoon into that bloody whale!!"
"SHE BLOWS AGAIN! TO THE LONGBOATS..READY YOUR HARPOONS!"
(I am bad...countdown to photo removal...1-2-3-4-5..tick tick tick..)

Is that the trail from your harpoon gong into it's mouth? Did it taste like chicken?

Well, I sure hope they're back in early January 2012! We'll be lookin'! H.

OH yeah, whales will be heading south then...but on the southbound migration, they are further offshore but will arrive in Ojo de Liebre by GN in
January...having their babies.

Hope they are around in 2 weeks, my boys would love to see the grays....not Pompano's version, after all they are only 10 & 7
shari - 11-14-2011 at 09:28 PM
grays dont usually show up here till late december...but there are humpbacks up by san pablo the fishermen have seen.
