Oct 24 thru 31, is the Gonzaga on the Fly trip this year. This is PRIME TIME...........................last year 5 guys caught and released 2000+ fish, YT, tuna, Roosters, bass, cabrilla, triggers, corvina, snappers and others too. Temps should have cooled to the mid 80's, water temps about the same. IT DOES NOT GET BETTER THAN THIS!!!!!!!!! Hope to see you there, those interested pm me.

Indeed it is. The big ones fight HARD!

& believe it or not, my buddy in downtown chicago at a well known spot is a sushi chef... last month while visiting here in SD he was showing me recent pics of fish and dishes he had prepared. Guess what one of theyre sashimi specials was & is occasionally... Yup, big Opal Eyes!

That scares me, TOTALLY. Many years ago a marine bioligist told me that when sea lions get old they start coming into the local bays to feed. Opaleye are one of the main targets. The dogs eat them RAW, opaleye it seems carry a HEART WORM...............I know your sushi chef friend handles his fish well and freezes them for a few days before serving....That still scares me. Time and Temperature is critical THAT worm is a KILLER. Tight Lines
