Catching Bait (Anchovies) to Eat *Surprisingly Delicious*

My main goal today was to catch some bait to eat. It was a success! All you need to a Sabiki rig and a 1-2oz weight to catch em. There is no limit to these in California and at the right time of year you can catch em from piers and jetties in endless numbers. Enjoy!

When making a salad, put the acid (in this case vinegar) on before the oil. Reason being if you do oil first, it coats the greens and doesn't allow the vinegar to penetrate and disperse through the whole salad.

Hey man, I have been a fisherman for about 48 years. I have a couple of really decent boats, and have fished off-shore in one 70 miles. The last 10 years if my life, sea sickness has been the "uninvited stow-away" on every one of my ocean fishing excursions. I still catch fish, but there doesn't seem to be a cure for the sick EX-Navy Veteran(me). I will still fish if I go out...sick or not. I will get scopalomine before my next trip to see if it will turn things around. Good luck man...we need you out on the water so we remember what it means to "man-up". Peace Brother 🙏

[@FishermansLife]

Try the medicine called Kwells. It's from Australia and you can order from eBay. Same active ingredient as the scopolamine patch but this is in pill form and doesn't have nearly the side effects that the patch does for me

But, when they brought me back, finally found the salmon and we were practically the only boat that caught them.

Take a few lemons with you, when you start to feel sick cut a lomen in half and lick it a couple times. My mother was very sea sick and that is what finally took away the motion sickness for her. We started fishing out of Halfmoon Bay in the early 60's going from small boats to a big commercial boat. I never get seasick no matter what but I always take lemons along for anyone who starts feeling bad.
