I haven't lost any fingers on a fish yet, although both of us have had to remove hooks in the last 5 years.

Where is Captn George, anyway?

The striper fishing in the bay area died right after they installed those pumps in the delta. The numbers that now make it to the pacific are a small fraction of what was there in the late 60's.

Skipjack,my uncle use to say we were stealing the stripers down here in southern Calif. because of the aqueduct.He was from Sunnyvale.He was still fishing largemouth bass when he was in his late eighties.He passed away last year.When ever he came down to visit he would take me fishing.Caught my first barracuda when I was 5 years old in those skiff you
had to row under the Santa Monica pier with him.


I have some fond memories of that outfit. They'd lower us down by rope from the lower deck to the water, while we sat in the boat. They supplied you with a cement block for an anchor. On my first trip I threw the block up against the breakwater and it broke into pieces. Then we had to row all the way back and the guy at the pier was really peeed at us.

The outside of the breakwater was far more productive than the inside. But we caught them everywhere - tomcod over the soft sediment and buttermouths near the rocks. I was even able to row over to a school of thrashing bonito and have a blast. We never caught any barracuda though. They were pretty scarce for a number of years.

Did you ever fish the skiffs at Paradise Cove? I seemed to always land a nice haibut there by dragging anchovies off the bottom. That was fun too. But the earliest memories are the best and it took some time before I started earning enough to afford Paradise Cove. They provided you with a motor and live bait whereas you only got a wooden rowboat with oars at Santa Monica. It turns out that Johnny Carson had a seaside home in that area.

That was in the early 70's. My fishing buddy kept trying to get me to go to San Felipe back then. Said you could sink your boat with corvina.
