Someday, years from now, when Im old and gray, and Mia and I are sitting at my grandsons little league game, we will talk about the epic 2014 World Series that we got to witness and we will always share the memory of being at Game 4. Against all odds the Giants win the World Series…
I decided to put a couple hours into the delta this weekend Sunday evening and Saturday Morning. Sunday evening was breezy and I managed a couple fish right before dark while listening to game 5 of the World Series. I was hoping for some top water action but the fish were a no show.…
Last night has to be the best World Series Game I have ever witnessed. Loosing and behind in the series till the 5th inning and rallying to win 11-4 to tie the series was surreal. The game was 4 hours long –we were standing for 3 of those hours cheering our team on till our lungs…
I estimate we’ve spent around $400,000 between Cal and Oregon. Tuition at Cal and Oregon should come with a couple complimentary primo seats for at least one football game. If they did, this would be it. Gina and I went to the first college game to be played at Levi Stadium last night and we…
Cousin Wayne lands this killer 24 lb beast in the Delta. I should have been there. Perhaps Sunday if the weather is good. Meanwhile, while I play at home till Sunday. Teams winning the third game of the World Series have gone on to win the Series 16 of 19 times. That said, Mia and…
I was back to Sugerbarge Friday night to get a head start on Saturday morning. I picked up my cousin Wayne at Korth’s Marina. He drove down from Pyramid Lake where he said the fishing was slow and we had a chance to fish for 6 hours before he had an event to attend that evening. Not…
Sunday, the wind really started to blow. I braved the white caps and looked for sheltered areas to fish. I ended up only catching 5 good stripers and hardly any dinks. On my way in, I fished Pipers Slough as it empties into the Track. The wind was building and was blowing 20 when I…
I headed over to the north delta to meet up with Wayne and the twins who launched at Korths Pirate Lair Marina at Isleton. I fished the moring tide that peaked at 8:00 at Singapore Cut near Prisoners Point. Working the area along the weeds I managed to pick up 4 good stripers on floating Crease…
The tide peaks at 7:00am. Hope the wind dies down. The Gods of fishing were kind to me on my first official day on the Delta on my own. As has been mentioned by many “experienced” Delta flyfishermen, the Delta is truly a river that runs in both directions. Current is the key. My neighbor…
Last sunday, I finally got the motorhome situated in site #21 at Sugarbarge RV Resort on Franks track in the Central Delta. for the Striper Season that runs through May of 2015. Thanks to my good friends Bob and David Broedlow, I was able to catch ride back to the bay area.since Gina is out…
Having both your favorite college football teams beat by the same team is a new type of agony. The Arizona WIldcasts for a second year in a row upset the Oregon Ducks. Two weeks ago they beat CAL with a Hail Mary pass. You can blame last nights Duck fail on many things that are not that surprising. The…
