September 2024

20 members of the SIR fishing group, family and friends, chartered the Sea Wolf and went north to Point Reyes for limits of ling cod and rock fish.  Brion Beetz, Pedro Contreras, Stan Wong, and Steve Paulick took a long range boat from San Diego down to Mexico where they actually caught over a 2 tons of fish, including yellow fin tuna, and yellow tail.  Tom Kostik caught trout and bass at Pine Crest Lake, and black bass from the delta with Mike Corker. Trout fishing in our local lakes has not yet started as the water is too warm.  We hope for a good winter season for that.  Rock cod fishing changes on October first, and we will have to fish below 300 feet till November.  Then crab and rockfish combo trips begin.    

        

August 2024

Salmon season in California remains closed, so we target halibut, striped bass, rockfish, and lingcod.  Brion Beetz and Tom Chapman went all the way to Alaska for halibut, ling cod and rock fish.  Many, many of us stayed home and fished for the same group in the bay and ocean.  Rich Fiscina went to Florida for snapper and grouper.  Ben LaSala and Steve Paulick caught trout in lake Berryessa. Mike Corker and Tom Kostik caught black bass in the delta.  Phil Scimonelli watched his wife outfish him at the Antioch Pier catching stripers.  Bob Lively went to Alaska and actually caught some salmon.
