Working Class HeroWednesday, November 19th, 2008 by MC |
It’s been said that if they grew to the same size as sharks, bluefish would be the only fish in the sea. They attack bait, lures and fingers with wild abandon and when they’re feeding, it’s as though they can’t stop. Read the rest of this entry »

Hamerhead attacks TarponTuesday, November 18th, 2008 by MC |
After fighting the 100 plus pound Tarpon for an hour this unlucky angler lost it to a massive Hammerhead. It’s funny how nonchalant the fishers are, like it happens all the time.

Smoke on the WaterTuesday, November 18th, 2008 by Ty Torres |
It’s been a wild and windy week out here in Southern California as a trio of fires have been burning out of control through Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Riverside and Orange Counties. While it looks like the worst is over (the Santa Ana winds have died down and been replaced with a sea breeze), hundreds of homes were burned to the ground and the smoke is still streaming out to sea. Here’s a nifty time-lapse from Newport Beach on Saturday as the smoke from the fires make it’s way westward:
NASA also grabbed a shot from space of the fires:
Finally, here’s a shot from Dana Point looking NNW to the Freeway Fire:
Best to all who were affected…

Russ Short Mainland Mex Point 1977Monday, November 17th, 2008 by MC |
Enjoy Russ Short’s styling on a three finned Bonzer at an undisclosed point break somewhere in mainland Mexico.
As water temperatures continue to cool, my mind drifts to thoughts of warmer climes. The wanderlust takes hold. Old Mexico is one of my favorite destinations for warm water reprieves. Cheap and deep, Mex is the closest, far away place.
