Looking At This Saturday, Oct 26th...
After a few weeks of weather and other "distractions" I am hoping to get down to the boat to prep gear and get set for a trip potentially this Saturday. We do have a very small weather window to work with and if nothing changes between tonight and Saturday morning it might be worthwhile. The new moon tides look real good and we will have an ebb tide to work with most of the morning until at least 1 PM when slack tide will set in. I do have plenty of frozen clams in my cool
Another Blow Coming Through This Wed / Thursday...But It Might Be Decent On This Saturday, Oct 19th.

I will discuss with Bob tomorrow and will know for sure by Friday morning if we are going to sail Saturday. Text,

This will turn the water into a dirty mess that will take no less than a week to clear. Bob and I talked about the possibility of doing something on Monday (Labor Day) but it's highly unlikely. If we decide to do something it will probably be last minute and I won't know till lat
Maybe This Weekend...
Boy I wish we had enough interest for last Saturday's trip....I knew the tides were perfect and one of my buddies who made it out did real well. 20+ fish in the box and 3 over 20lbs...a banner day for sure. This weekend, not so much...the timing of the morning tide change is real good, but tidal coefficient (number assigned to the strength or weakness of the tidal flow) is 35...very low compared to last Saturday at 114 on avg. In my book it's all about tidal coefficient wh
