I took this week off to do some catch up around the home stead and also to do some serious fishing in Humboldt bay.<br><br>Last week was warm and partialy sunny, this week the snow level is hovering around 1500-2000'.<br><br>I got blown off the bay yesterday.lol The winds got up to 25 and I was taking water over the stern on the drift while tossing plastics.<br><br>The "drift" got to be about an 8 knot troll and I figured that I needed another layer of real warm clothing to keep warm...what a day!<br><br>I did get rapped a couple of times on fishtraps but didn't stick what ever it was that bit.(probably moving too fast)<br><br>Lots of bait moving in the bay and tons of what I think were perch on the meter so it's shaping up, now if the weather will just turn around and calm down.<br><br>But it was a day fishing! And it was good to get out on the water even if I did freeze my fanny off. lol<br><br><br><br><br><br><br>
