Chicago Deep Dish in Campbell
One of the things we really miss about Chicago is those deep dish Spinach, Mushroom and Sausage Pizzas we lived on from Giordono’s. Its been 30 years but we found a great Chicago Pizza place in Berkeley called Zacharry’s Pizza. By luck we saw a tv commercial for a Deep Dish Pizza place called Patxi’s in…
Dinkfest on the Forebay – get your 4wgt on.
I had a few fishing options this weekend considering how slow fishing was last weekend at the Lake and Forebay, I was thinking of trying Coyote Reservoir for bass or even Callero Reservoir.

Holes in the weeds….
I was planning on fishing the Main Lake this weekend. Woke up on Saturday at 4:30 and the wind was a whopping 29 mph. When I woke up again at 8:00 ready to take care of some chores at home, I called the wind line again and it was a perfect 0 mph. I blew…

Success at last! We started the quest for an apartment in Manhattan 8 days ago in New York and managed to rent one today with the help of our relatives in New York willing to walk the listings with a great broker–Jenny Nokeo. Jenny was best thing about the whole experience. She was one of…

San Luis Reservoir’s historical low water in 104 degree weather….
Just a week ago I was fishing forebay in rain and wind shivering. I finally got out last Monday after 2 days of monitoring gale force winds as the low pressure moved in for a freaky June rainstorm last week. We got to the Lake and it was too scary to launch blowing 15 from…
