Davey's Locker RANT!
I got clued in from another post that the local yellowtail were turning on.
I check the counts and sure enough San Clemente Island is hot. So I check the Schedule for Davey's and see and overnight boat open party for $120. Not
cheap but reasonable for a shot at a couple of yellows.
So I call up and they tell me sorry private charter.
I'm starting to hate those guys. Everytime the fishing gets good they switch from a scheduled open party to private charter.
That's why I really don't like SoCal anymore. There's always some rich a-hole willing to dump on pile on money on anything good here. Regular guys get
stuck with crap.
That's why the women are so screwed up here too. And why a cappy little house costs $600000.
This place sucks. All I want to do is catch a few yellowtail. Is that asking too damn much?
I can't go this weekend so maybe I can get on a boat next week. But by then the fish will probably be scattered all over the ocean.
And no I don't feel better now. I'm still angry and what to kick someone butt!

You are soo right!
I'm just recovering from a broken shoulder and haven't been able to do much.
Maybe I should just jump in my truck and head south.
Anybody know if the yellows have gotten to Bola or Fransquito?

Ya, you guys are probably right. I was just frustrated because I wanted to be impulsive and jump on a boat tonight.
I do fish from San Diego alot but it's a 1.5-2 hour ride from Costa Mesa where I live and the traffic has been getting worse.
Nothing like getting on a boat 15min from your house. Especially when you get back.

Since you're such an environment conscious hunter-fisher, why dont you go for something more edible than yellowtail? It's like eating kapok.
Jeezo.....What an overrated fish for the table.

Fishbuck, check Dana Wharf. It's even closer to SCI, though the boat may not be as big as Davey's. You're only gonna spend 18 hours on it anyway.
Is it a complete live squid bite?

Bottomfishing=boring. But halibut are still fun to catch.
And probably the most deliciouso. Ya, more tasty than yellows but not anywhere near as fiesty.

Bingo! Give the man his prize!
On a day when I was loving SoCal very much. I do that sometimes.

Ya, that's where I do alot of my growing up too. Hoping to move my little show down Baja way and do some growing up there too.
If I do it right I'll never grow up!
