If only I had days off during the week, I would love to get out there. Unfortunately it looks like it will be the weekend for me. Good luck if you end up going out!

02-06-2013, 08:10 AM

If you see Team Lollipop be sure to tap us on the shoulder =)

Dannowar · 02-06-2013, 08:19 AM

Seconded ^^^

Good luck on your first launch!

What time were you gonna head out?

janines.fishtales@cox.net · 02-06-2013, 08:34 AM

Probably around 7. Depends on conditions I guess. If it looks too big (or I get scared!) I will go to the comfy and familiar bay. I would be happy to give team lollipop a shoulder tap... If I only knew what one looked like!

Catch a fish, and we'll find you. We're always on patrol.
See you out there.

janines.fishtales@cox.net · 02-06-2013, 09:52 AM

Ok. So does everyone launch at/near the boat launch at the shores? And how do I know if I am in legal fishing grounds? Is it marked? Do I fish near the kelp, away from it? How deep? OMG! So many decisions!Janine

You gonna be out to pres? Sounds like it will be a good day!!

RobFish · 02-06-2013, 01:43 PM

Hey there party people,
Dannowar - Yes sir, I'll be there. PM coming your way.
Janine - Yes Ma'am, the launch by the LJ Shores Beach Hotel is the best spot to put in at. Easy access as you can drive your car/truck onto the sand. Not the case tomorrow as high tide is at 0621 and being a 6+ we'll be launching from driveway most likely. As far as the boundaries go, you'll see the yellow bouys and you want to go past those by about another 100 yards. You'll see the rest of us. Come join in, introduce yourself, etc. and from there we'll answer any questions that you may have. A Ballast Point Pale Ale is all we ask in return.

See you there.

fearlessfiasco · 02-06-2013, 03:12 PM

I'm a bit of newb and will probably be out there tomorrow as well around 0630-0700. If the swell is "handlable" I'll be launching.

02-06-2013, 03:21 PM

is that beach where yall launch right off of camino del oro?

Cbad Mike · 02-06-2013, 10:54 PM

HMMMMMMMMM......

Cbad Mike · 02-07-2013, 03:38 AM

I can't sleep so I'm going fishing.

janines.fishtales@cox.net · 02-07-2013, 03:49 AM

ok. see you over there. I will be at the ramp hopefully by 7.

Good luck to you all!!

jimmyjones · 02-07-2013, 08:07 PM

Any luck today ?

Cbad Mike · 02-07-2013, 11:10 PM

I should have stayed in bed. Took me 1 1/2 hours to find my truck keys. 35 minutes longer then usual to get to launch because of traffic. 3rd drop of dropper loop I caught a seal that in the process of trying to remove hook wore me out for 20 minutes. Slow fishing for me all day. Water turned into washing machine in afternoon.

janines.fishtales@cox.net · 02-08-2013, 10:22 AM

Yeah, I saw you out there and saw you hooked up. Then I saw he reared his little dog like head! I was like, "oh no!". As for me, I fished with Jeff aka "fearlessfiasco". It was his first time too. Neil gave us our lolipops. Couldn't be more proud! My first launch was interesting but I made it out.

While launching, I was in the surf waiting for the right time to go and was knocked over by a little white wash and fell down! Jeff, big ol bear of a guy, plucked me out of the water like the wet rag doll that I was!

He made it out like he was a pro! So we get out there and we find you guys and a few private boats (eerie going over that canyon for the first time!). I could not catch one piece of bait, nor did I see any. So I yoyo'd, and yoyo'd, and yoyo'd, and then I yoyo'd some more. Nothing, but hey, you'll have that...

We went to the kelp for a couple bites on the swim baits, but we could'nt make em stick. So we decide to not beat a dead horse, and go in. So we sat just outside the surf line and watched. I decided whend the little kid in his red kayak made it in no prob, so could I. So we went... it looked small anyway...

So we commit and GO! Jeff makes it in just fine and so did I... untill... I didn't. In about a foot of water, after making it all the way through, my mirage drive catches the sand, sideways goes my yak, and over goes the fisherman!

At least I didn't lose anything and Jeff and Neil were there to once again, pluck me from the treacherous seas!

I HAD A GREAT TIME! Thanks to my new friend Jeff and thanks to Neil for the lollipops!
