https://www.fishingboat.comVery rarely do I cancel trips due to the weather forecast days in advance, but this is one of those rare occasions. The ocean forecast is calling for lots of wind and a huge swell through Sunday. How much? Well, building from south winds of 10 to 20 knots with a 10 to 15 foot swell today to as much as northwest winds of 15 to 25 knots along with a 12 to 14 foot swell peaking on Sunday. As they'd say in the Sopranos, "forgetaboutit". No reason to try to fight Mother Nature on this one. She wins, hands down, so we've cancelled our trips through this Sunday. On the encouraging side, though, the forecast submarines by Monday back down to light winds with a 6 to 8 foot swell, more like what we'd hope for this time of year, so hopefully we'll be back up and running for our trips next week.

Two more good fishing days, one of them good catching and the other just good fishing. Saturday was the good catching day, with 325 rockcod landed for 35 anglers. No, not quite limits, but...give me a break...325 fish. Anyone disappointed in that just simply shouldn't go fishing. Sunday was the good fishing day. It was a private charter completely paid by a company to give their crew a day of fun on the ocean. It was a non-pressure kinda day,......
