With 66-3 victory over Nicholls State (Louisiana) setting a school record for total yards in a game at 772 yards, there is little doubt in my mind that the Duck System is still intact post Chip Kelly. Originally scheduled to play Kansas State , Nicholls State was a last minute fill in and rumor has…
GO DUCKS!
This week after a world-wind three days of Bed Bath and Beyond, Pier One, BJ’s, Target and Michaels, plus a bunch of random boutique hardware stores only blocks away from her new Upper West Side Apartment, I finally discovered why I like Dentistry so much–I love the challenge of assembling Ikea furniture. Mia has officially…
I received and interesting post from a UFO expert that sovled my UFO over San Luis Reservoir Mystery last year April. Thanks to Harold Daniel, the site admin fro UFO Sightings Report, it appears that the floating Pants UFO I photographed fishing San Luis on 4-16-2012 was actually google project called LOON. Google is proposing a…
After the massive floods that hit Alberta only a couple months ago, it was good to know that the rivers of Alberta can survive the big flush and still hold hungry trout. As usual, there were unique opportunities and situations that make returning to Alberta a ritual, like Wayne’s fish that jumped onto the…
I read today in the paper that the grapes in Napa are being harvested a week earlier than last year. Its time to start measuring the BRIX on the grapes. Meanwhile its also time to start finishing the port from last year. Here is the recipe I will be using. FORTIFYING WINE To…
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…
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. Callero’s water elevation has almost doubled over the last couple weeks because SCVWD is pumping San Luis water into it. San…
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…
Check out this REAL live air broadcast by our own KTVU Channel 2 News Station in the Bay area. She didn’t even get it when she read it. The correct names of the pilots in the cockpit were Lee Gang-guk and Lee Jeong-Min. What ‘s more disturbing is that they reported that NTSB officials…
Today Wayne texted me from ICAST 2013 in Las Vegas- I’m overwhelmed! There is more fishing tackle here than any show I have ever seen. Maybe 4 times larger than San Mateo in its heyday…Ive seen Lefty Teeny Rajeff, Clouser, Curcione, Bill Dance, Roland Martin, Jimmy Houston, Gary Dobyns, Shaw Grigsby , Bobby Barrack, Mike…
The fourth of July in NYC is a tradition in our family. This could be Nicks last year to travel. Our goal this year was to secure an apartment for my daughter near Columbia in the upper west side. More on that shitfest in a later post. Get the flash player here: http://www.adobe.com/flashplayer
Next week at UC Davis the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, the Delta Science Program abd the NOAA’s National Marine Fisheries Service will host an independent panel of experts who will summarize the current state of knowledge on predation of Central Valley salmonids by Stripers and other fish. The question of Striper Predation on…
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…
Oregon got away with a big one today. It must be Karma for all the bad calls they suffered last year. After months of speculating about how the NCAA recruitment violations would effect the next seasons, all that stress about Oregon being post season ineligible is gone. The NCAA stripped Oregon of a scholarship in…
WOW, this guy is nuts, but profoundly funny.
Just yesterday this picture was taken of the Bow River near Calgary.Only 53 Days until I fly to Calgary to fish. I wonder what happens to all the fish in the BOW river after a flood like this. I would think there wouldn’t be any fish, let alone habitat left in the river…
Tuesday June 11, 2013, Vaughn Willett had a great day “lots of 3-5 pounders and a 10 lbr to the boat” He also mentioned that the lake level is still dropping fast and that the docks and ramps would likely be out of water by the weekend and that the forebay might be the only…
