ahhh the ole seagull chum!
yummmy
I don't get out in the ocean much anymore being up over here in Butte county now, but i'm def gonna be making my annual crab/rockfish trip the tuesday before turkeyday. It's a blast! Not too many people get sick on that trip, but when we go out to the farallones on other trips, even I might pop sometimes. It can get pretty fucked up out there :-(
It can happen to the best of us. But you gotta feel bad for the people who are green the whole trip Oh man those people got it bad lol.

Yes and yes ;-)
One of my houses is 10 min from one of the launches at O.
I've put in @ Lime Saddle. Not fishing one day I went up to Feather Falls, of course there were shiners everywhere that day. I keep hearing rumors there's sturgeon there somewhere.

Lime saddle is cool ;-) long boat ride to the dam though, and especially feather falls, but i'm usually bass fishing the west branch or kickin it up the north fork, so i like it. The dam is where most of the land-locked king fishing is. I prefer the spillway launch. Puts you right there

No salmon to be caught within 100 miles, but what about the venerable Lily brand? (Might even be the same label they've used for 80+years.) No preservatives/bullshit and caught/packed in the Seattle area. I've been enjoying this since birth, developed a fondness for it from my Depression-era parents/grandparents.....

It was a dude from work IDK. We talked about fishing a lot. Your implication is the universe has a purpose, IDK if I can buy that entirely.
it's just that you guys, by your own admission, were real friendly. you liked him, and he liked you. and he was a neo-nazi.

i mean, i was playing some golf today. dude i was playing with hit a shitty shot on the 6th hole. i said "it could be worse, we could be up there on that roof" pointing to a guy shingling a roof. he started talking about "those hispanics" playing "their mexican music" and working without insurance. i assured him that any contractor who got the contract to build those houses has to have workman's comp, and never said a word to him for the rest of the round.

were there no hints that he was a neo-nazi before you became such good friends with him? did you guys discuss birtherism, the racist conspiracy theory you believe in? or opposition to civil rights, another position you take?love of ron paul, your favorite racist politician?

i mean, there had to be a hint.

Haven't been in a while. I like Dark Canyon if its not too busy. Caught bass mostly in the lake. Fished the dammed parts of the North Fork and caught some native trout on a carolina rig. They were delicious.

I got lots of friends over by Dark Canyon;-) but that's just a roof top launch :-(
