Fishin report

 It has been a while since I had posted anything. Ive been busy with a million other things and just cannot seem to find a minute to sit down.  Fishing has been up and down. Some weeks are good, others hammered by wind. I fish a lot of big open water on both fresh and salt and the spring north wind has been beating us to death this year in Central California.

My main targets this spring have been bay Stripers.. I did spend a week in the motherload area of the sierra foothills for bass. Fishing was a good and the scenery in April is hard to beat. The numbers of stripers on San Francisco have not been anything to write home about but the quality has been fantastic.  Carp, bass and Trout are all in my near future... Shad started off with good numbers of nice fish and fizzled out this last week. I will try and get back on them this weekend.
