Oregon Coast Baja Connection


for those Nomads from here and about.
A brief synopsis;
The fresh pink shrimp season is off to a slow start. Few boats braving the gale warnings and rough seas. With the heavy rains last week the bottom fell out for most coastal steams but should clear and produce some Spring Chinook on the more southern rivers. Fresh troll caught Chinook Salmon prices remains high, plenty of live Dungeness Crab with fair to good size and looks good from new fresh water. A few reservation Columbia Sturgeon. Rockfish remains very patchy and is regulation driven with much coming from Canada. Ling Cod good and avail. True Cod med size & avail.Sole intermittent and off from last year. Oysters, depends on where and what. No closures heard of recently. Lower than usual rainfall but last week made up for much higher river levels. Forcast for Chinook fair to good in south coast. Steelhead picking up mid-coast.
Very little surf/jetty fishing due to rough conditions.

Many species of fungus normally not seen this time of year.
Bulb and tuber flowering plants didnt like last winter,too warm, poor crop.

Tired of fish photos......
Todays walk in the park(yard) looked more like October:

posting multiple photos


is easy but you gotta have a server.

Enter as you would usually insert an image i.e.:

make sure to start a new line for each address.










when I post this however it won't look like it will on your end. It translates the hypertext language Iam trying to show you.....

Nice fotos Sharks.

I recognize one or two of the fungi (I think) . Do you know which ones are edible? Always loved hunting wild edible mushrooms on the north coast.

Before the rains quit, I must have had 20 different kinds growing in my property in socal this winter but none that looked worth the chance to eat.

I just got back from Netarts and Oceanside. We went to look at a new/used home on the bay in Netarts.

The bay was like glass all morning and the ocean swells were less than 4 feet.
By 1:00, the bay had 1' chop and the tops were blowing off 6-8' breakers on the beach ! You should have seen the tourists scatter like gulls when the bigger waves came rolling into their picnics!
Can you believe some people were actually swimming - no wetsuits - no sh-t !

Sharks - Don't know how I missed this post, but am certainly glad I noticed this a.m. Your photos are wonderful! Cute little froggies, great shots of the fungus, beautiful flowers wild, and the interesting truck flowers. Thank you so much for sharing them... brought a smile to my face on this dark and rainy morning. Please keep posting your photos!

I was a fellow Oregonian prior to moving to Loreto and the pics of the morels made my mouth water. There are some fresh shrooms here, but they dont hold a candle for flavor....

Im not sure what they were called. a large (six in. diameter) brown top. They are available at pescador on a sometimes basis. I have seen a few growing wild, but my expertise isnt near good enough to identify them.

fungi perfecti


sure, take your mold and culture it out. Just use the same container, add water, beer,who cares it's the latest craze. Kidding aside, my fungi mentor assayed the bacteria and viral populations in the popular 'Kambucha' tea at the University of Wash. . I don't/wouldn't drink it.

todays backyard fungus:



















oops.....it's not mine....!



Halibut opens in Alaska ..........shrimpers still in port in N. Central OR.....
....large hook caught rockfish available today. Beautiful Dungeness Crab......
