launching a complaint against your fearless leader.....

Hello my NorthWest brothers ....Mooch here from your brother site: Norcal Kayak Anglers. I'd like to harass your leader, Allen / Pole Pole for not "enforcing" the law of posting pics with your fishing reports   . I for one, have never ventured further North but I'm always curious to see the beauty and splendor of your waters. But every time I log on to this site, I don't see any pics What's up with that? Any one here own a friggin camera 
Allen, get to work and start regulating....and for crying out loud, please come up with better emoticons 

Please forgive my rant .....salmon season just opened for us over here and I haven't caught MINE yet
Rockfish season opens at the end of the month - looking forward to that but nothing compares to the mighty King Salmon 

Anyway, let's get those photo's going!


Sleepless in San Francisco,
Joel / Mooch

Allen, you joining us at Elk this year???

Moochy ... talk is cheap, get your pie hole up here and show us how it's done.   

Where you fishing this weekend?  I'll be in San Jo looking to wet a line.  Monterey salmon?  OP butts?  Mendo?

I didn't make "the list" for Elk.     I think I may be in AK anyway.     If not, I'll crash the party!!!

da winds been blowing hard here for the last two weeks    Don't know what the weather forcast is for this weekend but it's still blowing as of today - but I'd love to fish for salmon - if possible. Plan B would be Lake Mendo stripers. OP butts are only good if you can gather some live bait. Dave and I couldn't make bait last week- ended up mooching from another yakker. One yakker caught a 20 pounder and I caught and released a shorty. The OP baitshop is under new ownership and are doing a monkey job managing it. They never seem to have enough live bait 

Keep an eye on the NCKA hook-up section or just give me a holler

Mooch, I think it's a good idea that you come up here and show us how to do it. Bring me a camera and I'll use it! 

What are you doing Memorial weekend?  We'll be on the Olympic Peninsula chasing halibut and lings. BTW, our butts are bigger than yours! 

I'd love to go up there and show you fellas "how it's done" but I'm too busy here "still trying to catch one" 

Hey mooch here ya go. Took this blonde gal out on a guided trip and she nailed this monster "FISHEY"

Jeez Mooch!, pretty adament about the pic's eh!
I just ordered my optio yesterday, I don't fish as much as some do here, but, I can shoot a load of pics!!!
got a family of river otters last week, let me follow along at about 10' for a mile down river or so. When we got to a den, Mom let me know it was over and time to leave them alone!!!
I love Pics!

on another note, I agree with Mooch, these emoticons suck. But this is not an emoticon based site!
 Take Care and BE SAFE!!

All right, all right.  I hear ya.  I'm going to start off by getting a "waving my backside at Mooch" emoticon.  I'll put that on my list of things to do this winter.

Gotta have the pics to go with the report - and it does not even have to be pics of fish   When I post my kayak fishing reports at NCKA, I end up taking pics of whatevers out there just so the reader can visualize where I'm at. Pics of the launch, the scenery, the wild life, the lady wearing a bikini, the old timer fishing from shore, the sea otter chewing on my paddle, my kayak fishing buddy crashing and rolling on the surf and doing the yard sale   IMO, it's all good  

I've never been to your neck of the woods and I'd LOVE to see what it's like out there = so PLEASE picture away

What really inspired me to get a camera (I have the Pentax Optio) was when I was at Moss Landing (Just North of Monterey) 4 years ago and there was a Humpback whale that was slapping the water with it's tail for about 20 minutes  I was so close, I could see the barnacles on it. I was mooching for salmon at the time and I completely forgot about fishing at that moment  SIMPLY AN AMAZING ENCOUNTER 

Agreed. I think reports w/ pics are so much funner and really put you into the story. Some of the NCKA boys are pretty good about getting pics up and there's a few that have it down to an artform. Look up any of FishHunter's reports and you'll see. He even takes pics of his fish underwater when they're close to the boat. AWESOME! Mooch's reports are also classic! Especially the recent non-fishing beach volleyball one...

Lookin' forward to see more NWKA pics. PLEEEASE.

Mooch,

I wasn't going to but since you are harrassing our leader I thought I should give my two since.  Posting pics on NCKA is a pain in the arse!  I would be more than happy to show you some pictures on your site even but I can't get it too work.

Maybe I'm just a little slow, but my wife is very internet savy and she's not real sure what you have going on down there either.

Regards
