yes everyone should go bottom fishing. go have FUN with the rockfish and sand dabs. more room on the offshore boat for me..... if you like bottom fishing you'll love winter rockcodding at 800ft. lee

Bluefin 30 miles off the point. the guys from pride and Aztec have a short video posted at 976tuna but I can't copy and paste anymore. all sd landings are going offshore this weekend with at least 1 boat. lee

a six-pack charter came back with 5 Bluefin to 35lbs today, 30 march 2015. yellows are on the chew big time in the kelp. lee

yellowtail goin hot n heavy from la jolla to the rockpile

the early bid was prob by someone in the east or wine country that wants them-he bid early to lock in the shipping price mistake. I no longer sell horn sets online because of shipping costs. that set will cost $160-220 to ship to Illinois because of dimensional weight. the seller has no experience with dimensional weight calculations but will get a learning experience when they get their monthly shipping bill........................ maybe I should offer him one of my big horn boxes I still have sitting around. a 20x20x48 box that weighs 30lbs gets charged for 140lbs. that's dimensional weight for you. lee

catch and release ends today at silver creek-the slaughter starts at daylight. becker will be good but there are eagle closures this time of year. good luck, lee

incredible spring fishing for yellowtail out of la and dego landings. up to 200+ per boat. burn some gas and have some fun.

for half and three quarter day ttrips I would take a bass rod and rent a yellowtail rig. 12 lb on the bass rig. seaforth is way better for short trips because of parking. if you really want to make it a memorable experience go on the day-at-th-docks sunday. not much fishing goes on but it can be fun for newbies. lee

threw my 22 pronghorn points at a unit 1 tag. thank you flatlander-I was just gonna buy another pt until you gave me the pep talk... lee

try becker lake-its been incredible the last 12-15 months with huge catch and release fish....

new year another pronghorn bonus point. only interested in unit 1 with 22 points. hope I live long enough to get a tag.. what say you and thanks in advance. lee

nps and usfws both reporting to the az republic that it has the dna of a northern rockies grey wolf and is fully protected under federal statute. wish it had hitchhiked to ferguson instead of the Kaibab. lee

during recovery from my right knee replacement in 2012 I started having severe sciatic symptoms. for 2 years it nearly ruined my life, weight increase and lost work hours being the most severe results. 2014 was a rebound year-almost pain free until I took the tin boat out in October and was laid up for 48 hours after only 2 hours in the boat. hadn't had it out all year because of trying to sell it. i'm a stupid old man but I made the connection and have been pain free since. so now I never sit on any low seat, stump, rock or stool-and no tin boats at all-for more than a few seconds. I put a lot of stress on the nerve batting and playing softball apx 8 hrs a week with no ill effects so I agree exercise is good therapy. good luck sir, lee ps see thread 'gregor tin boat for sale' lol

if anybody bumps into this old boy down patagonia way this winter while out quail huntin' shake his hand and thank him for me. i don't think i'm going to get to do it-so tell him that for 30 years i valued his words beyond measure. https://www.google.com/search?q=jim+harrison&rlz=1C1GGGE_enUS459US459&espv=2&biw=1280&bih=933&tbm=isch&source=lnms&sa=X&ei=fDNtVOzaIInjoATvtYDQCw&ved=0CAcQ_AUoAjgK oh and let him know about a little place in show low called 'el milagrito' that makes the best machaca in the milky way.... lee

JIM HARRISON: WHAT I'VE LEARNED Harrison is a poet, essayist, novelist, and screenwriter who has devoted particular attention to themes of American manhood and the American wilderness. His novella Legends of the Fall was first published in Esquire in 1979.By Cal Fussman on July 29, 2014 781 61 3 View All Comments (2) Michael Friberg Published in the August 2014 issue I don't see any evidence of wisdom accelerating as you get older. Old people will say it does, but they're generally speaking full of shoot. Given free rein, our imagination can get infinite. A couple of weeks before she died, my mother—so old and sweet—said, "You've made quite a good living out of your fibs." I'd gone to Granada to see where Lorca was murdered on the mountainside by the Franco people. That Franco was a wicked cocksucker, but they certainly never bothered killing poets in America. Legends I wrote in nine days. But that's the only time it ever happened that well. It was like taking dictation … but it was after I'd thought about the story for five years. I won't even talk to young writers anymore unless they can give me a good reason. I say, "I don't have any time to talk to you unless you intend to give your entire life over to it, because it can't be done otherwise." Once in twenty years we've had here [in Arizona, where he has a second home] the elegant trogon. It looks sort of like a paint-by-number bird. Very rare bird. You're always so pleased when you have a rarity in your front yard. I probably wouldn't have been a poet if I hadn't lost my left eye when I was a boy. A neighbor girl shoved a broken bottle in my face during a quarrel. Afterward, I retreated to the natural world and never really came back, you know. It's just like when I was twenty and my father and sister got killed in a car accident. I thought, If this can happen to people, you might as well do what you want—which is to be a writer. Don't compromise at all, because there's no point in it. If all I did was answer the correspondence I get, that would be my job. It's like hunting with Mario Batali. He checked his fancy phone and said, "xxxx. I've got 280 e-mails." And I said, "What do we do now?" And he said, "Nothing" and put it in his pocket, and we went hunting. I don't hunt mammals. My friends all do. I love antelope and elk, but I depend on the kindness of friends, because I shot a deer when I was young and it was very unpleasant. Unlike a lot of writers, I don't have any craving to be understood. They published my Fireflies in The New Yorker, and they took a sex scene out of it, which irked me at the time. I said, "That was evidentiary to her character!" She's got to get laid like anybody else at some point. I don't know if it was writer's block or if I just didn't have anything I wanted to say. Fifty-four years later and we're still married. Very few keepers like that. The interesting thing about Nicholson is his inability to lie about anything. It just doesn't occur to him to lie, and that's a rare actor. It's overwhelming when you know Indian history. What fuckin' assholes we were for so long. The reason why writers go out to Hollywood is to get some money. Which I still found preferable to teaching. If I can write a screenplay in two months and it pays what I would earn teaching for a year and a half, why not? I revere bears. I had a big male bear that I used to leave extra fish about a hundred yards from my cabin. I'd leave the fish on a stump and the bear would eat them. When I would come home from the bar, sometimes he would stop me and I would roll down the window, and he would set his chin right on the doorjamb and I'd scratch his head—but that's stupid. I work every morning, all morning, sometimes in the afternoons. Then sometimes I hunt in the afternoons—quail, doves, grouse up north—but just to stay alive, because writers die from their lifestyle but also from their lack of movement. If you've written all day, you don't want to talk about it at the bar. My grandmother lived to be ninety-seven, and I would carry her in and out of the house because she was arthritic and I was real strong then. Grandma said, "This has gone on too long, Jimmy." Ain't that a great thing to say? All people disappear. I didn't want to die on the Warner lot. Has happiness changed with age? Yes, I expect less of everything. No conclusions on time. Other than the old beginning, middle, and end. You end up missing your dogs. What's the meaning of it all? Seems to me nobody's got a clue. Quote Jim Harrison on that: Nobody's got a clue. Now, where did I put my cane?

must be gettin' old-i'm becoming a snowbird for the first time. but. have glass will travel....checkin' out the map for who's in the 85207. i used to hate snowbirds..... lee
