Re: fishing monday
You did the most important thing right - asking for help. I'm constantly amazed at the amount of knowledge here and on the pier and at the willingness to help. Good luck. Pretty sur someone will be along shortly
Screw it. Let's ride.

Give a googan a king, and he can eat for a day. But teach a googan how to kingfish, and he'll be dead of mercury poisoning inside of three years

Re: fishing monday
Not only did you get an offer from a good fisheran, but from - soon to be - one of America's finest.

[size=12pt]John will be easy to spot, 1. he will be the one catching Kings and then 2. grabbing a another bait and running back to the rail and repeating steps 1 and 2 over and over again.
You will need to get there about daylight to catch up with John before he heads off to work. Well worth the effort to be there, and if Peaches is there too, well, you just hit the fishing lottery!
Peaches is right; most of the regulars will be glad to help ya out, just watch a few minutes and you can tell the regulars from the rookie tourist types. The people willing to ask for help, usually end up with fish in their cooler and pictures on the forum. Good luck to ya and will see you on the rail soon.

John is on the left, and i'm on the right btwGive a googan a king, and he can eat for a day. But teach a googan how to kingfish, and he'll be dead of mercury poisoning inside of three years
Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
