     No launches today. There were a few crab snarers catching some reds (and returning a few Dungeness) on the beach but not much else going on. I heard a rumor that some of the boats out of Bodega caught tuna today, and not a few. I almost went but changed my mind at the last minute, so it seems right that they killed them today. Oh well, that's what memories are for...

   ... and pictures. Gage and I took uncle Lou Zanardi out with us last Friday and he sent over a few pictures today. Here's a few:







   Don't let the pictures fool you; we made sure Lou did some reeling too. Those fish pull hard, and rotating through the available fishermen keeps everybody fresh for the end game. The next most important part is having a good crew around to help with the cleaning and packaging. We're lucky enough to live in a small town and have been able to assemble a group to help each time we do well. Thank you, team. Also, thanks to whomever placed a couple thousand hungry tuna in front of my boat on Friday. You're the best.

You guy’s are amazing!! Keep up the catching so I/we can at least read about it.

Is there any fresh hell from the bureaucrats about Dungeness crab season?

Domoic acid is clear here. Traps out (whales) but rings will open at scheduled time.
