Just keep her out of fishbuck's reach. He's back. Hide the womenfolk!
Regarding the yellowtail: yes, those lips have been stretched.

Woody,
I hope you can get on the waves here at home. The BIG ones are here, or will be here shortly. They should be big in Baja (Pacific) too!
HALF MOON BAY -- The same ocean conditions that will yield the Mavericks Invitational will cause dangerous surf conditions in the Bay Area this
weekend, and officials are urging beachgoers to be cautious.
The National Weather Service has issued a high surf advisory from 10 a.m. Saturday to 4 p.m. Sunday, leading the Coast Guard and National Park Service
to warn people who visit area beaches or operate boats near the shore to be careful.
Officials are predicting waves as high as 8 to 10 feet. People who walk along the beach should stay away from the water line and never turn their back
on the ocean.
Some beaches, such as those in Point Reyes National Seashore, are prone to "sneaker" waves -- strong |
Toneart - Interesting that you mention the Maverick's surf competition and the wave warnings. Here's the NWS weather/ocean forecast for tonight and
Sunday:
PZZ560-200530-
PIGEON POINT TO POINT PINOS TO 10 NM-
209 PM PST SAT JAN 19 2013
TONIGHT
NE WINDS 5 KT...BECOMING E 5 TO 15 KT AFTER MIDNIGHT.
WIND WAVES 2 FT OR LESS. W SWELL
5 TO 7 FT AT 20 SECONDS.
SUN
N WINDS 5 TO 15 KT. WIND WAVES 1 TO 3 FT.
W SWELL 5 TO 7 FT AT 18 SECONDS.
It’s one of those ocean curiosities that while the conditions are building for the surf competition on the reef at Pillar Point and dangerous near
shore it’s hardly noticeable when you’re out on the ocean. The NWS forecast of 5 to 7ft swells, at 18-20 seconds period and a favorable tide, makes
for near perfect conditions for pulling my string dungeness crab traps. Then all I have to do is make sure I'm back in the harbor by kickoff time. Go
49er’s! |
Last night's TV weather report (KCRA Sacramento) said that waves could get up to 20' today.  Police are determined to keep people away from the shoreline in Half Moon Bay. The sudden surges are very dangerous.
Go Niners, indeed!

A couple of years ago I'm jigging blue and white salas at the 90' spot off Horsehead, catching 12# yellowtails or bonitas everyother drop. On the the
10th drop or so I get another fish and half way up I get slammed - rod practiclly jerked out of my hands. I had the Penn Baja Special spooled with 80#
Mono from you-know-where and I cranked the drags as hard as I could. The catch started down and then straight out and surfacing. Normally you can get
some line in by taking the bend out of the line but not this case; just kept peeling off. About 150 yards away a large bull seal surfaced with my
blue and white salas in its mouth, snorted, barked at me, dove and started swiming away pulling off line the whole time.
Not wanting to find out how good my arbor knot was I cut the line.

Indeed, they went!
And now for, as they say, the "Big Dance".

On the way towards Vizcaino we came across this bunch of baseball players who's van had a flat. The guy didn't have the right lug wrench so I broke
out my deep well sockets.
Plus 1 in the positive Karma ledger!
