All I can say guys… If it was the Padres and the Yanks…. I wouldn’t be rooting for NY… But, then, I don’t have a lot of angst for anything San Diego… I love the whole place… Well, maybe I don’t love the Padres .. But I don’t hate them…

I agree with Mike.. Less wind is important to me.. Unless it’s off shore, then I don’t mind a heavier breeze.. Weeds are a pain to deal with… I usually just fish when I can… Mostly mornings until noon, tides are what they are, even though they do affect the bite…

Monster trout!!!! I don't envy you your cold temps, but I do envy you your fishing... WTG...

Good for you Vinny.... I don't have a boat, so I don't need the card, but I'm sure it would refresh a lot of things if I did take the course...
