pargo/ pantoja----I see your pictures of some BIG cudas you have shot and it made me wonder what is your favorite way to cook big cudas?

Tin Man---I sent you a check by snail mail 2 days ago for one of your new RA muzzles.
I cannot wait to try it out

Pargo--that looks like a sweet set up with your fish finder /GPS and compass. Very nice

In the summer it rains many afternoons. Also maybe the storms out at sea is bringing in some bad weather also.
This is NOT the kind of weather to try to yak out to the 3rd:(
I have a compass mounted on my yak just in case I get caught in a storm and cannot see the shore to know which way to paddle in

I went to Meade St today at 830am, waited around for some friends to show. Then paddled out to the first reef to check out the viz. Jumped in with my mask, viz was 30+ with minimal current. Just made it back in and loaded up on the truck again when another storm came in
Maybe tomorrow will be better

at Meade st. solo today
the sea was so flat I paddled around looking for spots from 830 til 1030
found a good looking spot, jumped in and shot 3 macs, 3 dogs, 3 jacks and 1 mutton. No size to any and not really good hog country.
viz went to crap and another storm came my way so I gave up for the day at noon
It has been raining ever since.:(

Toledo970--thanks for the translation. Now Cordelero doesn't fit

Man I wish I wasn't working tomorrow night. I'd be all over that invitation.
Thanks Pargo

does cordelero really mean "sea ox"?
If it does then I nominate Cordelero as the new company name

me and scott went to Meade street today for 1/2 a day
scott got a hog before he had to go in and I got 2 hogs, 2 macs and a mutton before a storm ran me in at 1pm
Was a beautiful morning to yak spearfish

Old guys have stories, so heres todays story
Scott is a bull and can out swim anyone I know. He is a professional physical trainer. I am old and out of shape.
So-----Today scott says lets swim in towards the first reef. I know what that means so I get ready to swim like hell. After about 10min of almost all out swimming/towing our yaks I realize I"m in trouble keeping up. With one last desperate swim effort I am able to catch up to scotts yak and drop MY yak anchor into his yak without him knowing. He is now towing BOTH our yaks. NOW we're talkin.Good idea
He's getting his exercise and I can breath again as I easily swim next to his yak so that when he turn around it looks like I'm keeping up with him.
All is good for about 15min till scott flushes out a mutton. Scott stops and turns and starts to follow it but the mutton flees towards me:) I take a breath, drop quietly and shoot. My POS RA shooting line again tangles with the band and I get a poor hit on the mutton. The mutton is hurt, not on the spear but not in a hurry to get away. I reload, drop and stone him. Great until I get back to the surface and look and see scott swimming off 100yds away with BOTH our yaks, still not realizing he is towing my yak. Now I am between the 1st and second reef, mutton in one hand, empty gun and shooting line and knife in the other hand and knowing that scott might not stop till he got to the beach:0
Now my smart ass idea to secretly let scott tow my yak is no longer a smart idea, so I start yelling and yelling and hopin scott hears me and STOPS.
Lucky for me he hears me and stops
Now for the first time scott realizes he has been towing both our yaks but he doesn't get mad.

Thank you.
I have learned a lot here. When I first logged on I didn't even know how to copy and paste:)

sdeisen---I tried yesterday to post the mornings conditions from the yak as soon as I anchor up, but it is a real hassle with the iphone / internet / forum through the dry bag.
Posting the conditions as early as possible in the morning would be more useful and relavent than posting at the END of the day
