Cedros Island Let's Go!!! - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Until there is a coalition of fish protesting scorpionfish being called sculpin and croaker called seabass you can stick that S in your sheep shead and no one cares.

But the people that shoot edit and produce the show you mention would appreciate it if you call it by its title: Stoked On Fishing
Irony isn't lost.

Once the coalition sets America straight (20yr plan) it's on to Australia where they call fish wtf they want w no regard.

Thank you for correction. Being a terrible speller myself, I rely heavily on word processor for spelling correction. It does not catch everything, like son and sun.

However, two wrongs do not make it right.

I respectfully (without any unnecessary profanity) submit that:

There is a reason that scientific community uses Semicossyphus pulcher
https://www.bing.com/search?q=semico...MUjp67&plvar=0

for sheephead (no “S”) and

Archosargus probatocephalus for sheepshead (with “S”)
https://www.bing.com/search?q=Archos...5ddd1ee1030460

Anglers are free to call fish what they want. It does not make it right.

Sorry for distracting from the original post.

All the best wishes for the anglers who are going.

Just to bring this around with a bow, to quote a prof, "You can call anything what ever you want as long as you know what it is." Common names are varied. If you're in CA catching sheephead you aren't catching bream.

Which brings me to Archosargus probatocephalus being in the family (Sparidae) of sea bream, with other breams including Australian "Red snapper"--not a snapper. Our only "bream" in that family is Calamus brachysomus or pacific porgy which of the two I have ever caught one was at...wait for it...Cedros by yak. The other was from shore N of BdLA. Join the coalition.

Nice fish there.

Aren't oceans of the world wonderful??

Cedros Island is a great place to fish. Now that the sportfishing boats cannot fish there, the available fish must be awesome.

I may go next year.

Stoked on fishing has been showing the Cedros Island trip a lot lately.

Boy do I wish I could go.

Comon lottery.
