Now I am not a fan of eating anything that comes from our part of the Bay so I RARELY keep fish for myself. I think we have eaten rockfish and crabs maybe twice a year each for the last few years. That said, I still like to CATCH fish!! I have now been out twice in a row without a damn bite!! Admittedly I may not have put a full force effort in but still, a skunk 2X in a row??? Could it be that my red hoses are starting to fail me?? I even put out a black hose, a little crippled alewife, and a Capt John spreader bar. Nothing!! Didn't catch Zip!! Guess I was getting spoiled on the last few trips and the Fish Gods had to straighten me out. Was fishing upper end of Swan Point Bar with all the other boats that got there before 8:15 and stayed past 11:00AM (
I said I didn't put in a full effort)
1 more skunk and I might be having a hell of a yard sale!!
