And also got into a leapord shark. Saw several sturgies breaching early morning. My buddy hooked into something big too but it cut his line... probably another shark.

Dumbarton Pier - Sat. 6/27
First time at the pier with a buddy of mine. He's never fished the bay before so based on someone's previous post I thought we'd go for some sharks and rays. To my surprise, I hooked up on a good sized striper at the start of the low tide. Squid was the bait. Measured out at about 30 in.

DJ Funktual's Top 10 Samples in Hip Hop History Parts 1 and 2
We know hip hop artists sample lots of different songs, older songs, funk songs, r&b, soul songs. This guy breaks it down for you:
Blue Water Seafood Market and Grill - SD
Can someone in SD check this out? Ei and I watched this on 3D last night (that's Diner's Drive-Ins and Dives for the uninitiated) and it looks awesome. Fresh seafood and that's all they do. Maybe Chris can go and check it out since he is Mr. Yelp Elite.

New MacBook Pro 15"
At work, my PC refresh date came up. I chose the Mac option. I already have a MacBook Pro 17" and I have been impressed with it, even though I run Vista on it most of the time (I need Windows for work apps).
So, when the Mac refresh option came up I decided that the new uni-body casing of the new MacBooks would be a good choice. I am happy so far. The new keyboard is easier to mash on with my big fingers. And the new single unit trackpad/clicker is a welcome change. I also like the black monitor bezel. Now the question is, do I install Vista in Bootcamp or not?

Stephanie our pet Pug Passed Away Today
Today is a very sad day. Stephanie our Pug is with her sister DJ now in heaven (Stephy and DJ were sisters from the same litter and I bought them as pets in 1996. DJ passed away 5 years ago). We will miss Stephy so much. She has been our loyal friend and our baby for 13 years. We will always remember her.
The other night she came in from outside and she stumbled and laid down on the carpet. She was breathing hard. I think she may have had a heart attack. Over the next day she seemed ok, she ate some of her food and rested. Last night she was breathing hard again. She laid down on the bed with me with her head on my leg. Her breathing calmed down a bit. When I woke up it was quiet and I found her in the bathroom.
This morning I took her to the Humane Society. Eileen and I decided we would not do a formal burial in a Pet Cemetery like we did with DJ, but we know that Stephy knows we love her the same. She gave us so much joy and memories and we will never forget.

Sturgeon At Last!
After many trips on the water in search of Sturgeon, the hard work finally paid off. Mark and Dad lost their Sturgeon Virginity. Check out Mark's post on FishSniffer for the details. Congrats Mark and Dad!
"Finally... it's happened to me... a Sturgeon's right in front my face and I just can't hide it..."
"Like a Sturgeon... caught for the very first time... "
I have a few songs for this post...
"At Last... my Sturgeon has come along..."
"At Last... my Sturgeon has come along..."

Super Bowl Weekend on the Delta
Mark, JR and I went out for Sturgeon again this past weekend. We left Saturday night got to the launch around 11 PM. As we were cruising in the dark to where we wanted to start fishing, we ran aground in 1.5 ft. of water. It was low tide and we got too close to an island. We tried getting out but we were stuck. We waited for about an hour and a half and the tide started to come up. We used the anchor to pull us to deeper water and we were out.
We continued out to PG&E, fished for an hour or two for nothing. Then, we headed out to Honker Bay where we watched the sun come up. There we had no luck with keeper sturgeon only a couple of shakers that JR pulled up. Mark did manage to get a keeper striper though. Next, we originally planned to call it a day and watch the Super Bowl but we said "da ell wid dat". We wanted to fish. We tried Chain Island and again, no luck except a bunch of flounders and I think JR had another shaker sturgeon there too.
Finally before we called it a day we tried one more spot in Broad Slough and there JR pulled in a keeper striper and Mark, two big ones - ~26" and the other maybe 28".
Here are the pics:
JR's shaker Sturgy
Marvin's shaker Sturgy

A big ship that came close to us as we were anchored at Chain Island
Mark's 26 incher burly hook in da lipsch

Mark wrapped up the day with this hog. This is his Ben Affleck pose. Not the real Ben Affleck. Look at the picture below. It's a guy on Fish Sniffer who catches lots of big Stripers on topwater lures who looks like Ben Affleck. Ben Affleck's fish is bigger... hehe.
