i used to talk to Keith and Holly frequently when they ran bajaportal.com
they published a travel story i wrote about the Flying Sams.
they are good people with a fine reputation as San Diego contractors and i look forward to seeing their development at Abreojos soon.
ps to Roger - sweet duck action!
i miss my Kansas waterfowl hunting days at Quivera and Cheyenne bottoms game preserves.

This is total BS.
2 thumbs down Mr. Keith Berkley!!!
A San Diego angler should know better. |
100% in agreement with skipjack joe. Super lame move to harvest those fish.

They seem nice enough. Web site has been up for years with no activity so don't hold your breath. and they don't own any land that I am awarre of.
They have only been down once (that I know of) in the last three years.

guess it isn't going on for them then.
were those fish illegal? - over limit/size? species? or just that its not considered good conservation to take them? would the local fishermen take
them? are they for people eating or pet food processing?
just trying to understand the points of discussion.

I don't know if they were taken legally. They are of legal size. Yes the coop will process them. The coop does not generally fish for them. And it
does not make it right to take them like that. I believe it was for sport.
For those that haven't caught a black sea bass. I don't think it is any fun at all. Its like bringing a bag of cement up off the bottom. no fun at
all.

Basically you have a southern californian promoting abreojos with images of 80 year old dead fish that normally don't reach sexual maturity until a
weight of 60 lbs. A recipe for disaster.
It's like promoting San Felipe with pictures of totuava being loaded into trucks back in the 50's.
How did that story end?

thank you. i understand this discussion much better.
in 1991 i was scuba diving off Grand Cayman and at one of the marked commercial group dive sites lived a tame Goliath grouper AKA Jew fish.
i have it on video - it was amazing and let us all swim right up to it. had to be 6' long or better, weighed several hundred pounds. Catching it would
be pointless i think.
i saw similar video of divers petting giant cod at reefs off Australia.
as much as a like eating yellow tail, i didn't get much thrill bringing those up off Santa Ynez isla, 40 lb class - like fighting a 4X12 sheet of EXT
CDX plywood.
i think dorado is the most sport fun. i'll stick with those.

yeah, I think fighting a trout on 2 pound test is more fun than a 40 lb yellow on the yoyo..I mean, who wants to pull that hard.

Seeing a BSB in California is high on my bucket list. Where are you seeing them? I know there are a few spots at Catalina (Italian Gardens is one)
where they are reliably seen, but it seems like sightings at the other islands are pretty spotty. ++Ken++
carpe diem!

Ken, still chasing that Mero huh? Seems like years ago we exchanged about seeing/photographing one.. Seems like when we work Anacapa, SBI, and
Nick...mostly where we see them.
We are ussually creating a ruckus before the diving starts trying to catch fish. Maybe we are bringing them in? Dunno..only see big ones 80lbs
plus..Good Luck..would love to see one in your photo quality/style..

HERE'S A HUGE BLACK SEA BASS
This GRANDE bass was caught by Chino fishing out of Cielito Lindo.
David K and I saw this fish in 2001 when we stopped for the night on our way back north. Truely a BIG fish!!!
The pig in the forground is 'Porky Pig' - Dave and Juanita's pet.

Some of the most fun I have fishing is grinning while fighting a grayling..the sailfish of the north..on a fly or spinning with 2lb test. Winching up
grouper or yellowtail can be fun, but just can't compare.
A huge grayling will run 4 lbs. 
Here's some monster grayling: ( That I wish I had caught!)
Let those big female egg-laying grouper live! You'll feel good about it.
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.
