Fernando and Mark,
No problems with diesel at all, it's actually in greater supply than gasoline. Diesel is 4.09 per gallon right now. Seems like I filled up somewhere with the Kenworth at 3.80 per gallon, but I think it was a misprint. I wasn't paying attention because I didn't have to pay for it.
Gasoline is running 3.68 at local pumps.
I know you guys are gung-ho, and Fernando is straight ready to go catch some tuna's, but let's consider here.
The water is dirty, still.
Fleet hasn't been out in two weeks, and if they have, there's not 50 charters pounding it out finding the fish.
It's gonna blow NE or W or NW for the next two days, NOAA is just shy of calling small craft all week. Kyle is out there adding to the swell on the bar. Once you get out it's just wind/wave swell, and it won't be non-fishable. I'm bringing my Grunden's tho. And a change of clothes.
Water temp has dropped, but 7 boats boats went out today and caught a bunch of dolphin and 10 total YFT's. Today was prolly the first day they went.
Weather sucks, gas is expensive, this weekend might be good or might not. That NE blow for the last week had to blow the fish down from the north. Had to.
If I was towing from far away, I'd wait till Wednesday to make my call due to weather and see what was caught by the fleet.
Course, I'll be out there Tuesday with Fernando getting beat up. I'm getting too old for this crappy weather. I'll give a report.
BTW, just turned 34 (I think, don't remember anymore) last week. The fact that I can't remember anymore means I'm getting old.
Call me anytime about the fishing....
