Slip rate increase and failed attempt to evict boaters raises questions of affordability and management. By Parimal M. Rohit
MARINA DEL REY—A planned discussion of appraisal work for Marina del Rey slips morphed into a heavy conversation on an attempt to evict boaters from Wayfarer Marina and a spike in slip fees. Boaters spoke to members of the Small Craft Harbor Commission on Dec. 12, 2018 and expressed a variety of concerns surrounding current upgrades being made at Marina del Rey’s Wayfarer Marina, including the cost to rent temporary slips there while construction is done on the permanent docks. “They said they would move us into temporary slips. They’re doubling the rent for those temporary slips. We are up to our own devices to get to those slips,” Michael Masterman-Smith, who owns a 32-footer in the Wayfarer basin, told commissioners. “As of January 1st, rent would be doubled, and those are temporary slips. Then they are going to move us back to where we were. “We’re all going to be separated out. Docks are neighborhoods. Those neighborhoods are basically being
ripped apart. We’re being put wherever they want to put us and then doubling our rent,” Masterman-Smith continued. A representative from Wayfarer Marina told commissioners the slip rates would increase from $15 per linear foot to $23 per linear foot. The boat owner also reminded commissioners of a botched attempt to evict boaters at Wayfarer Marina. Boaters at the marina were given 90-day eviction notices in April, though the notices were later rescinded. “We were told we were Boaters at Wayfarer Marina are concerned about impending raises in slip fees, amongst other possible changes.

Could the legend of Atlantis serve as a lesson about sea level rise? 2C FOUNTAIN VALLEY— Nazis, Aquaman and famous psychics like Edgar Cayce: What do these have in common? They are all in some way related to the lore of Atlantis, a mythical civilization described by Plato as one of the most advanced places that ever existed. According to data gathered, more than half of people believe Atlantis is a real place despite its allegorical origins. Even though Atlantis is most likely fictional, that does not stop others from searching for it. However, the lore could give insight into the future of a subject that is very real: sea level rise. If Indiana Jones were a real person, he would undoubtedly be using his archaeological knowledge to uncover the truth about a myth that Plato strung together. Comparable
to the Holy Grail, Atlantis would the end-all-be-all archeological find and as recently as November, explorers have discovered the location of the island – this time it was off the coast of Spain. Atlantis is mentioned in both dialogues Timaeus and Critias, written around 360 B.C., and is described as an island “larger than Libya and Asia put together” that rose from the Atlantic Ocean and “a great and wonderful empire” seeking to destroy all other nations. During “a single day and night of misfortune,” Atlantis sank into the vast sea never to be seen again. Atlantis itself may not be a real place, but that scenario certainly sounds like an example of flooding and hurricane destruction that has happened time and time again.
In a recent article penned by David Anderson, an award-winning archeological researcher and writer, he said: “The 2018 survey of paranormal beliefs carried out by Chapman University found that 56.9 percent of Americans agree or strongly agree that ‘Ancient advanced civilizations, such as Atlantis, once existed.’ This number is troubling to scholars who study the ancient world, including myself.” Anderson goes on to explain how a parable by Plato evolved over the years, leading many onto a quixotic quest to find a place that most believers of science would absolutely a fictional place. Nazis, for instance, embraced Atlantis as the origins of the Aryan race … and, ironically, completely overlooked the purpose and
teachings of Plato’s parable. Such is the way of the human race. 2C As a parable, Plato conDARK demned the Atlantean BKGND people for their greed, arrogance and obsession with wealth, which was ultimately their downfall.

THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) — Dutch authorities are warning the public to stay away from some of the 270 containers that a cargo ship lost off the northern coast of the Netherlands because they contained a hazardous chemical. The Dutch coast guard said three containers carried closedoff barrels of organic peroxide, a flammable and highly toxic compound. The container ship is suspected to have lost cargo that included toys, light bulbs and flat screens during an overnight storm off the coastal border between Germany and the Netherlands.
German maritime officials identified the ship as the MSC Zoe. By mid-afternoon on Wednesday, more than 20 containers had washed ashore on the Wadden Islands, a North Sea archipelago. Some beaches on the islands already saw a surge of curious people checking out what washed up.

CANAL CRUISE IN THE SOUTH OF FRANCE Dana Point boaters Susan and Charly Ware, Robin, Dominique and Bob Noterman, and Margaux Tomasello enjoyed a seven-day cruise on Canal Du Midi in Languedoc, South of France. Between Port Cassafiéres and Castelnaudary, the crew had to negotiate 38 locks and went from sea level to approximately 400 feet high. The 45-foot boat with three staterooms and en suite bathrooms was rented from Le Boat. Built in 1681, the canal connects the Mediterranean Sea with the Atlantic Ocean. Today, it is an UNESCO World Heritage Site. Bob Noterman said, “As always, we had a copy of The Log with us!”

Blips on the Radar Latest News Updates Young man accused of stealing yacht What Happened: A 24-year-old man was charged with grand theft, resisting police, felony vandalism and DUI after attempting to steal a yacht in Newport Beach, according to news reports. Theodore Liko Wilson, a Costa Mesa resident, was accused of commandeering a yacht, reportedly worth $1 million, and navigating it through Newport Beach Harbor during the final day of Newport Beach’s annual Christmas boat parade. Wilson was

also accused of evading Newport Beach Police and deputies from the Orange County Sheriff’s Department before being arrested. The yacht, a 70-footer named Gambler, reportedly belonged to Dick Peckham. What’s On Tap: Wilson reportedly pleaded guilty to three felonies and six misdemeanors, in all. He was due back in court in early January, according to the Los Angeles Times.
California Coastal Commission won’t meet in January What Happened: The California Coastal Commission will start the 2019 calendar year on hiatus, as the quasi-judicial agency does not have a meeting planned for January. The meeting, if it had took place, would have occurred Jan. 9-11. The commission last met in Newport Beach, Dec. 12-14. This is the second year in a row the Coastal Commission was dark for its January meetings. Members of the quasi-judicial agency also skipped its January meet-
What’s On Tap: Commissioners will return to the dais, Feb. 6-8, for their first meeting of 2019. The February meetings will take place on the North Central Coast.

a result of several homes sliding from the rocks into the ocean. This place can be seen in many films and television shows. Port Royal in Jamaica, Dwarka in the Gulf of Cambay off India’s coast, Cleopatra’s Palace off the shores of Alexandria, Egypt, Epidaurus in Greece, and Pavlopetri submerged in the Mediterranean are just a few of the many ancient civilizations, once thriving, that now lie in a watery grave below the ocean’s depth. As technology advances, who is to say hundreds of years from now future generations will not live in a domed world similar to Aquaman’s in the new film starring Jason Momoa? The television-like camera phones of “The Jetsons” seemed distant and faraway when the cartoon premiered in 1962, but today in 2019, FaceTime, Skype and other cell phone apps that allow video conferencing doesn’t make most bat an eye – and these apps are so commonly used they are included with most new cellular and computer devices. The National Oceanic Atmospheric Association (NOAA) reported in January 2017 on “Global and Regional Sea Level Rise Scenarios for the United States.” In the report, there is documentation and data collected observed rises in sea level. The report also gives a detailed outline on building for a major flood, indicating South Florida as a result. Several sources have cited cities like Tampa as one that could be in danger. Cities all over the world are in fear of being the next sunken city largely due to sea level rise, which The Log has covered extensively. In a Planet-ofthe-Apes-like twist, some major cities on the West Coast such as San Diego, Santa Barbara, Avalon, Los Angeles and others could end up underwater in 100 years. It may be disappointing for believers and those who continually search for Atlantis to be denied. Still, sometimes fact is stranger than fiction and hundreds of years from now it’s a likely possibility that our beloved coastal communities may disappear into Atlantean lore. Most importantly, the metaphorical Atlantis is a reminder to work together to protect our coastal communities and ocean so as not to fall from mortal hubris.

Letters/Online Comments Re: There’s a new harbormaster in Newport Beach (issue Dec. 28-Jan. 10)
Is a fire suppression plan needed in Newport Beach? It will be important for the new Newport Beach harbormaster to develop a comprehensive fire suppression plan for the private vessels at the 1,200 moorings and anchorage areas in Newport Harbor. The current lack of an internal Newport Beach fire department resource to provide fire pumping, dewatering and access by State certified firefighters creates an enhanced risk to the public. Ad-hoc exterior fire attack services by the O.C. Sheriff’s Harbor Patrol, while well intentioned, do not provide the public using the recreational environment of Newport Harbor with adequate fire suppression capabilities needed to rescue persons trapped in an interior vessel compartment fire. Each vessel at a mooring or anchorage should be viewed as a residence sitting over a gasoline station floating in the water. The myriad of electrical systems, hazardous materials, confined spaces and volatile flammable and combustible fuels add to the
BW seriousness of the challenge in firefighting efforts for land-based firefighters operating on the water. P. Matheis
Question for P. Matheis P. Matheis are you a member of Newport Beach Fire Department?

Choppy Waters: Will the future of boating ever find smooth sailing? Boating advocacy groups and agencies acknowledge the fluctuating state of the industry, but what solutions lay ahead? By Parimal M. Rohit
NATIONWIDE — The calendar has officially flipped over to 2019 but the recreational boating industry finished 2018 trying to grapple with its future. California’s Division of Boating and Waterways (DBW), at its November 2018 meetings, openly contemplated whether the industry is evolving enough to welcome a new generation of boaters. BoatUS, National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) and other boating industry leaders convened a panel of experts (also in November 2018) to discuss the evolving needs of recreational boaters. “Evolving” is clearly the common thread between the DBW meeting and BoatUS/NMMA

panel, indicating the recreational boating industry acknowledges the need to adapt and adjust … or be left behind. Acknowledging the need to adapt and evolve is a necessary first step to ensuring the recreational boating industry continues to be handed down from generation to generation. The acknowledgment, however, is meaningless without action. What, exactly, is the action – this is the $64,000 question. The industry leaders who met at the BoatUS panel in Newport Beach on Dec. 3, 2018 discussed the changing model of boat ownership, shifting demographics and boat-sharing clubs. Attending that panel discussion, by the way, were the following: • Robert Baldridge, former chief commander, U.S. Power Squadrons • Ellen Bradley, senior vice president, NMMA • Lenora S. Clark, former Boating and Waterways Commission member
LAKE ARROWHEAD — Southern California’s waterways are regularly filled with recreational boats and personal watercrafts such as Jet skis, kayaks and standup paddleboards. The co-existence of these crafts and vessels has often created rifts among boaters and personal watercraft users. But the use of standup paddleboards in local waters is not a new phenomenon. In fact the standup paddleboards were a welcome addition to local waterways during the 1930s, according to historical documents published by Lake Arrowhead Yacht Club. The yacht club, during Fourth of July festivities in 1934, featured an inboard speedboat race, outboard racing, aquaplaning, sailboat racing and an exhibition of Hawaiian paddleboards. (Fishing and canoeing events were held a couple days later.) “[The year] 1934 saw the introduction of paddle board races to the LAYC regatta. Hawaiian paddleboards were gaining in popularity in Southern California, and were introduced to Lake
Arrowhead in June of 1934,” Lake Arrowhead YC member and historian Phillip Homme wrote in a narrative about the Fourth of July celebrations in 1934. “At the request of LAYC, the paddle board manufacturer sent a group of five experts from Santa Monica and Venice to Lake Arrowhead to give paddling demonstrations and to assist with a paddleboard race hosted by LAYC.” Powerboat racing, however, was the headlining event of the 1934 regatta held on the Fourth of July weekend. “Power boating was extremely popular at Lake Arrowhead in the 1930s, drawing large crowds to view the annual races. LAYC’s headlining race was the exhilarating inboard motor speedboat race,” Homme wrote. “In 1934, fifteen entries competed for the B.I. Malouf Perpetual Trophy, racing in Chris-Craft and Garwood boats. The racecourse was laid out such that the speedboats would pass the Village boat docks twice during each lap. This circuit allowed the spectators to see as much of the race as possible from the Village boat docks and the adjacent shoreline.” Lake Arrowhead YC charter member Edi Jaun won the perpetual trophy, according to Homme.

reports the city is looking to sell the Showboat Majestic, a 95-year-old riverboat that was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1989. Cincinnati’s parks department says the cost to maintain the old riverboat is too high, at some $100,000 a year. The boat’s floating theater hasn’t been used regularly for years. It was previously for sale in 2014. A later proposal to move it across the Ohio River to Newport, Kentucky, didn’t work out. The boat built in Pittsburgh provided entertainment to riverside communities for decades. Cincinnati paid $5,000 for the boat back in 1967, obtaining it from Indiana University. The newspaper reports the city plans to list the riverboat on an online government surplus auction site.

STATE Season’s first snow survey shows California’s water level is below normal
Flashback to Dana Point Harbor Revitalization in 1972
PHILLIPS STATION, California (AP) —Winter storms have coated California’s Sierra Nevada mountains in snow, but the drought-prone state is still off to another dryer-than-normal start to the crucial wet season. California water managers said Jan. 3 the Sierra snowpack is only 67 percent of normal in this winter›s first manual measurement. Winter snow in the Sierra provides drinking water for much of California as it melts in the spring and summer and flows into reservoirs for storage. Precipitation has bounced up and down as the state continues to recover from a devastating drought that led to tight water restrictions for residents and farmers and contributed to severe wildfires. Gov. Jerry Brown declared a formal end to a three-year drought emergency in 2017, but said water conservation efforts must continue.

Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks closed for safety concerns
Presenting Sponsor Port of San Diego portofsandiego.org
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Overflowing trash and human waste and other unsafe visitor conditions have prompted Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks in California to close to the public. The parks said in a statement they were shutting Wednesday evening and would likely stay closed for the duration of the government shutdown, which entered its 13th day on Jan. 3. The statement said the parks were forced to take this action “for health and safety concerns.” Bathroom facilities had an accumulation of human waste and toilet paper, while overflowing trash bins had resulted in animals eating and spreading garbage around, the statement said. Lack of parking has prompted people to park on highways. In Kings Canyon, visitors were making illegal campfires that were unsafe both to visitors and wildlife, the statement said.

Harbormaster James “JJ” Poindexter’s service to Catalina Island Avalon’s harbormaster, who was raised on Catalina, shares the highs and lows of harbor patrol duties and fond memories of growing up island-style.
AVALON—Avalon’s harbormaster James “JJ” Poindexter has resided in Catalina Island’s only municipality since he was three days old. Poindexter was born to a Catalina-born mother in Nevada while his father was finishing up a construction job. Poindexter is one of the last of his kind who experienced and remembers his unique upbringing in Avalon, and who still lives there today. His father passed away in 1968 and his mother has also passed on in recent years. Poindexter’s sisters and son moved off the island. However, his wife and daughter still live with him in Avalon. Make no bones about it, Poindexter is committed to being of service to locals and visitors alike and has built quite a career as he rose through the ranks to harbormaster. Poindexter’s mother was born into a family who ran El Encanto restaurant for The Wrigleys. The island has seen many changes, just like anywhere else in the country, and the site where El

Carol Jacobs, Newport Beach’s assistant city manager, hopes to bring the SUP safety recommendations back around to the City Council by the end of February.
Newport Beach Harbor Commission aims to revisit paddleboarding safety measures City Council had voted against further SUP regulations, but the advisory board urges city leaders to reconsider the issue again. By Devon Warren-Kachelein
NEWPORT BEACH—Love it or hate it, standup paddleboarding, abbreviated as SUP, has taken off as the trendy new outdoor sport. Unfortunately, because it is such a fun on-water sport combining elements of kayaking and surfing, folks sometimes forget it can be a danger to the paddleboard user and to others sharing the ocean arena. Newport Beach’s Harbor Commission, however, has been actively seeking to implement safety measures for paddleboarding. Commissioners, at the last Harbor Commission of the year, which took place on Dec. 12, 2018, voted to take their findings from a previously formed ad hoc committee on paddleboarding to Newport Beach’s City Council. In 2016, the ad hoc committee on paddleboarding was formed after a paddleboarder died in a highly unusual accident in Huntington Harbour. The paddleboarder, it was discovered, could not swim. The commission voted to forward recommendations to the City Council in efforts to make SUP safer. According to a staff report, the recommendations are as follows: • Direct the Harbormaster to coordinate with code enforcement to ensure all rental companies have a valid Marine Activity Permit (MAP) • Require all rental SUP boards are fitted with leashes, and rental companies encourage their customers to use them • Work to revise MAPs requiring SUP companies to: a) distribute the safety brochure and require customers to acknowledge that they have read and understand it; b) require customers to acknowl-
edge in writing that they can swim and require the customer to wear a personal flotation device if they cannot. Carol Jacobs, Newport Beach’s assistant city manager, told The Log in an email she hopes the City Council will review the recommendations at either the upcoming Jan. 22 or Feb. 12 meetings. Last May, Commissioner William Kenney presented the ad hoc committee’s findings of which he was a member. One of the more shocking realizations was that only seven of 20 paddleboard rental businesses operating with a permanent address held a MAP. Though council member Diane Dixon and former Council member Scott Peotter had supported increased regulations on SUP, the city council voted against measures that might get ahead of Coast Guard approval but gave further direction to revisit the topic later. The staff report states: “The ad hoc committee presented their findings to the Harbor Commission in October of 2017 and revised a draft brochure. The recommendations were forward[ed] to City Council on May 8, 2018 and additional direction was provided to the Harbor Commissioner. The subcommittee held a stakeholder meeting on Oct. 29, 2018 and presented them with the concerns of the Harbor Commission and the City Council and asked for their input.” Though SUP may look like a relaxing and easy sport, it certainly requires skill. Natural elements can also interfere including wave swells, tide conditions and wind. It is important to note that beginner or inexperienced paddlers are responsible for watching for traffic on the water – larger vessels will not easily be able to maneuver out of the way, so it is crucial to be alert while navigating on a paddleboard and follow safety procedures. If these recommendations should be passed by the City Council, they will not have a fiscal or environmental effect on the harbor.

press release stated, was a priority talking point among those attending the November 2018 BoatUS panel in Newport Beach. What should these legislative endeavors look like? Can a bill proposed in Sacramento, for example, help get more boaters out onto to water in Marina del Rey or Santa Barbara? What incentives would be included to moti-
vate a casual or non-boater ramp up interest in boating (particularly among those younger than, say, 50)? Could legislators offer tax breaks for first-time boat owners? Maybe offer Free Boating Days (similar to California’s Free Fishing Days)? Legislation, of course, isn’t the only passage of evolution and adaption. What should recreational boating
industry leaders be doing to strengthen connections with casual or non-boaters (regardless of age range or demographics)? Can brokerages find ways to collaborate with boat-sharing clubs? Are there innovative boat ownership models that would help rope in as many potential boat owners as possible? What other questions are being asked (and should be asked)?
TAKE ACTION Solutions, of course, aren’t always easy to come by – nor are the discovery of solutions the goal of this Standing Watch column. The policymakers and industry leaders appear to be motivated to do something, and the only way they’ll develop the right action is by interacting with as many boaters (or interested boaters) as possible. The Log encourages our readers to interact with policymakers and industry leaders as much as possible. Below are a few people you can contact and begin a conversation about the future of recreational boating. Such conversations, hopefully, will help those in power convert their talking points into action, results … and evolution.

WASHINGTON, D.C.—Two congressional representatives penned a letter to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on Dec. 18, 2018, expressing concern to Administrator Andrew Wheeler about 15 percent ethanol (E15) fuel blends and misfueling. The letter specifically addresses the EPA’s impending proposed final rule on fuel regulations, which could provide greater flexibility for E15 fuel blends. Reps. Austin Scott (R-Georgia) and Lois Frankel (D-Florida) jointly wrote the letter to Wheeler, stating consumers need greater protections when it comes to E15 and misfueling.

SoCal’s holiday boat parade winners for 2018 announced Honorable Mention – Best Flag Award: Maui Diamond
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA —If there’s one thing Southern Californians know, it’s a good boat show. Not to mention, we are spoiled with choice and 2018’s parade schedule was no exception. Though 2018 saw its fair share of major news stories, including one boat-parade-related item that saw an intoxicated young man steal a yacht during Newport Beach’s festivities, the fires did not cause any cancellations this year. Boaters in Marina del Rey, Redondo Beach, Los Angeles, Long Beach, Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, Dana Point, Oceanside, San Diego, Santa Barbara and Ventura took to the waterways and decked their vessels with the brightest of lights and most festive of decorations to celebrate the holidays. Participating boaters in these floating parades win recognition or even awards for their efforts in creating a winter wonderland on water. The names released for a handful of the 2018 boat parade champions are listed below. May 2019 sparkle and congratulations to the winners!

A Look Back at 2018: The Year that was for Anglers and Boaters Waterfront development, public access and environmental initiatives were among the major topics of last year. By Parimal M. Rohit
STATEWIDE —The final year of the second decade of the 2000s is upon us, which means we have a lot to look forward to, as 2020 is now less than 365 days away. (And how often is “2020” used in foresight instead of hindsight?) Speaking of hindsight, the year that just finished was more than noteworthy, particularly for anglers, boaters and others who enjoy the ocean. The year that was 2018 was headlined by several major issues, which The Log reported on throughout the year. Many of the major headlines will continue to be closely watched stories in 2019, so let’s quickly review what happened last year.
Offshore Drilling The potential return of new offshore drilling opportunities off California’s coast actually dates back to 2017, when Pres. Donald J. Trump’s administration advanced a proposed policy to renew oil exploration activities in federal waters. California’s executive and legislative leaders immediately pushed back, passing and implementing resolutions in opposition of Trump’s plans. Will California be able to prevent new offshore drilling opportunities off its coast? This upcoming year could provide answers.
Modern Fish Act The 2018 calendar year literally ended with the swift stroke of a pen, as Trump signed into law the Modern Fish Act, a landmark piece of federal legislation many advocates hail as a victory for saltwater anglers across the country. Those in favor of the new law have consistently stated the Modern Fish Act would improve fishery management tools and offer greater opportunities for saltwater anglers. Opponents, however, pushed back by stating the Modern Fish Act would actually reverse protections against overfishing already in place. We’ll see how the new law plays out in 2019.
Illegal Charters The Port of San Diego finally committed to address an issue many thought it had ignored for years: illegal charters. Port district staff convened a workshop to address illegal charters and hinted a policy proposal could be on the table by the end of the year. The end of 2018 came and went, and yet a policy proposal has yet to be offered – but there is chatter something could be presented within the first few weeks of 2019.
Illegal charters occur when boating-themed businesses circumvent established regulations limiting the operation.
Vaquita Mexico’s commercial fishing industry has been under a microscope in recent years due to the rapidly dwindling vaquita porpoise, which exclusively reside in Mexico’s upper Gulf of California region. The most recent estimates show fewer than 30 vaquitas exist in the world. A few courts, in attempt to reform commercial fishing activities in the vaquita habitat, implemented and upheld a ban on seafood caught by drift gillnets in the upper Gulf of California region. The ban has carried over into 2019. Paralleling the ban was a one-million-postcard campaign spearheaded by aquariums across the United States, including the one in Downtown Long Beach, to urge Mexico’s new political leadership to be more proactive in protecting vaquitas. The collected postcards were sent to the Mexican consulate office at San Diego in late December, and then relayed to Mexico Pres. Andrés Manuel López Obrador at the beginning of this year. Is 2019 the year the vaquita begins to rebound from its endangered status?
Fishing License
discussions the planned renovations received a jolt in the arm when county officials and a group of developers came to terms on a 66-year lease. The public-private partnership led to the creation of a new company called Dana Point Harbor Partners, a firm tasked with building out the revitalization. Will 2019 be the year Dana Point Harbor finally starts to see the first elements of its planned revitalization become reality?
Martins Beach/Coastal Access Billionaire Vinod Khosla owns a beachfront property near Half Moon Bay, just south of the San Francisco Bay Area. Beachgoers had used a portion of his land to access the local coastline – called Martins Beach – for years. Khosla hoped to put an end to the practice, taking his grips as a property owner all the way to the Supreme Court. He claimed his personal property rights trumped the public’s constitutionally guaranteed access to the beach. The Supreme Court ultimately decided to not hear Khosla’s claim, meaning the public’s right to access the beach remained intact. Will Khosla find another way to assert his private property claims in 2019?
Redondo Beach Harbor Plans to revitalize the dilapidated
California still sells annual fishing licenses that expire on Dec. 31. A state senator from California’s Central Valley spearheaded legislative efforts to change this fishing licensing system to a 12-month scheme. Each of his three attempts, including most recently in 2018, failed to make it out of the legislature – despite widespread support to implement a 12-month system. The senator has since been termed-out to office, meaning California’s anglers will have to hope some other legislator comes along and picks up the mantle.
Shelter Island Boat Launch Ramp San Diego trailer boat owners lost a major piece of infrastructure in 2018 when the Shelter Island Boat Launch Ramp was shut down for full-scale renovations. The boat launch ramp was supposed to be closed for a few months and be re-opened in time for the 2018 boating season. Delays, however, kept renovation work going on for the entirety of 2018. Port of San Diego staff announced launch ramp would re-open on Dec. 21, 2018, allowing trailer boat owners to begin finally access the waterway entry point just before the start of 2019.
Dana Point Harbor Revitalization Orange County has been pining to revitalize Dana Point Harbor since 1997. After more than 21 years of
NOW HAULING VESSELS to 200 TONS
Redondo Beach Harbor returned to square one in 2018, as a grassroots stand against developer CenterCal’s plan to build a large scale waterfront project proved to be successful. A group of NIMBYs spoke out long – and loud – enough to eventually scare CenterCal away from realizing its original version of the King Harbor revitalization. With a new year comes the prospect of a new plan, however. Will Redondo Beach’s city leadership be able to come up with a set of plans to satisfy boaters and local residents?
Sea Level Rise Environmental issues are almost always controversial. Sea level rise is no exception. There are those who question whether sea level rise is happening at all (or if humans truly contributed to the phenomenon). Several public agencies, nonetheless, began looking into how they would address sea level rise. The California Coastal Commission, for example, updated its sea level rise policy in 2018. Other agencies to discuss the prospects of sea level rise were: the city of Avalon; Santa Barbara Harbor; Port of San Diego; and, the city of Newport Beach. Sea level rise will continue to be on aplenty of public agency agendas in 2019.

Port of Los Angeles wins award for highway infrastructure project
By Devon Warren-Kachelein
SAN PEDRO — The Port of Los Angeles has a lofty list of projects ahead in 2019, but the American Public Works Association’s Southern California Chapter recently granted an infrastructure project top honors. Harbor Boulevard and Plaza Park was recently completed and is now considered a highly innovative design, having won an award for Outstanding Roadway and Highway Project of the Year by Metropolitan Los Angeles Branch of the American Society of Civil Engineers. According to a Port of L.A. press release the highway was designed with other projects coming up in the future, such as the San Pedro Public Market, in mind. The release says: “Additional improvements were also made to the adjacent Plaza Park, which overlooks the Port’s Main Channel. Enhancements included extensive slope re-grading, drought-tolerant landscaping, as well as a new lookout deck, decorative
lighting and viewing benches. The park will also serve as a walkway linking downtown San Pedro and the future San Pedro Public Market.” In some ways, the complete overhaul of San Pedro’s roadThe reconfiguration of the public highway, which is located at Harbor Blvd., ways could be an 7th Street and Miner St., was designed with the grand opening of San Pedro omen of what’s to Public Market in mind. come. The release continues: “The Port’s to make San Pedro one of the biggest Harbor Boulevard project involved upcoming tourist destinations on the realignment and reconfiguration of West Coast. a three-street intersection at Harbor San Pedro Public Market, which Boulevard, 7th Street and Miner Street was inspired by Fisherman’s Wharf in San Pedro, readying the busy LA in San Francisco, will transform the Waterfront thoroughfare for the new old Ports O’ Call Village. On Jerico San Pedro Public Market scheduled to open in 2020. With new traffic signals, crosswalks and bike lanes among other enhancements, the reconfigured intersection also provides another point of connectivity to other LA Waterfront attractions like the World Cruise Center, Battleship IOWA and Los Angeles Maritime Museum.” Port of L.A. has been rebranding itself as the L.A. Waterfront to mixed By Devon Warren-Kachelein reviews from local business owners and residents. However, one thing is clear – the L.A. Waterfront is determined SAN PEDRO — The Port of Los Angeles announced one of its own, Vice President of Los Angeles Board of Port Commissioners David Arian, died on Jan. 2. Arian lost the battle with thyroid cancer nearly a month after his 72nd birthday. He was a longtime resident of San Pedro, having attended Cabrillo Elementary School, and was a major figure in the local harbor community. In 1965, Arian started his first job at the Wilmington waterfront, at 18 years of age. From there, Arian was a longtime dock worker at the Port of L.A. and a member of International Longshoreman & Warehouse Union, eventually being elected international president in 1991. Arian retired in 2009, David Arian but ascended to commissioner as part of the Board of Port Commissioners in 2010. During Arian’s tenure, the Port of L.A. broke all-time cargo volume records, which had been one of his primary focuses. He was also praised for his role in the labor movement. In a release by Port of L.A., it stated: “Concern and support for the community, local workers and residents were woven into everything Arian did. A tireless community activist from the start, Arian and his family helped found the San Pedro Community Action Center in 1966. Over the years, he was also an active supporter of many local service organizations,

The reconfiguration of a three-street intersection by the waterfront earns praise from American Public Works Association and American Society of Civil Engineers.
Development’s website, one of the developers of the project, it says: “San Pedro Public market is envisioned to be an environmentally sensitive and sustainable urban environment – a vibrant, family-friendly shopping, dining, entertainment and recreational themed destination that will connect downtown San Pedro and the surrounding local community to its waterfront and bring jobs and economic opportunities to the community and beyond.” Along a similar timeframe, Wilmington’s industrial waterfront is being re-imagined into a 20-acre park. In California, coastal access and natural spaces is king, and this will be one of few waterfront projects that aim to capitalize on greenery. Readers can expect more updates on projects in the LA Waterfront in 2019 as development takes place.
IN MEMORIAM
David Arian, Vice President of Los Angeles Board of Port Commissioners, has died including the Toberman Neighborhood Center, Harbor Interfaith Services and the San Pedro Boys & Girls Club, the latter where he played as a youth.” Arian also founded the Harry Bridges Institute, which aimed to educated young workers about the labor movement’s history and community. Jaime Lee, president of the Los Angeles Board of Harbor Commissioners, said “Dave brought incredible passion, perspective and authenticity to his com-
mission work. He was greatly respected by his Board colleagues, Port staff and the entire Harbor community. His leadership is irreplaceable, and we are devastated by his loss.” Arian was not afraid to speak his mind and this could be witnessed from his commentary on issues during commission meetings. He is survived by his two children and five grandchildren: son Sean and son-in-law Councilmember Mike Bonin; daughter Justine and son-in-law Ethan Edwards; and grandchildren Jadyn Rose, Destan, Jacob, Aneka and Keira.

What services can boaters expect during the government shutdown? Story and photo by Capt. Nicole Sours Larson
Most civilian “non-essential” USCG personnel are furloughed. Neither uniformed nor civilian personnel are being paid, even if working. It’s unclear if, post-shutdown, Congress will authorize money for back pay. Is this the way we want to treat our public servants? Morale is already plummeting amid workers’ worries concerning their ability to support their families and pay their bills, affecting retention of good workers. Customs and Border Protection and other border-related law enforcement personnel are also working unpaid. CBP continues to process border crossers and still responds when called to inspect a boat arriving from foreign waters. But inspection delays may be greater than usual with fewer workers. Since the government shutdown Arv and I have twice crossed the border into Tijuana at the San Ysidro pedestrian crossing and observed no apparent change in service. What we saw, as we note every time we cross, is ever-increasing border fortification. Since the media doesn’t report it, if you don’t live near the border or cross
SAN DIEGO — If common sense prevails, the federal government will have re-opened when you read this. As of this writing a few cracks in opponents’ positions are appearing. Based on my experience of many Washington standoffs, even after the government reopens more shutdowns are likely in the current polarized political environment. Nine government departments, plus several smaller agencies, are closed, with only “essential services” continuing. The agencies providing services most directly impacting boaters are the U.S. Coast Guard and Customs and Border Protection, which both became part of the Department of Homeland Security, the department central to disputes over Trump’s proposed border wall, following the 9/11 attacks. The Interior Department operates national parks many boaters visit. To learn what USCG services are affected, I called its Washington, D.C. headquarters and spoke with Public Affairs Officer Lt. Amy Midgett. “Uniformed (USCG) personnel will continue to perform essential services such as search and rescue, port and homeland safety and security, law enforcement and environmental response,” she explained. Anything falling within the Coast Guard’s “statutory mission” is deemed “essential,” she said. That includes Signs and bollards block the access road to Cabrillo National responding to emergency Monument atop Point Loma in San Diego. The park is closed search and rescue calls because of the federal government shutdown.

New regulations have kicked in for 2019 – including a few affecting anglers and boaters.

California Endangered Species Act
STATEWIDE — California is under new leadership in 2019, with Gov. Jerry Brown departing the gubernatorial mansion for the last time ever. His 16-year run as California’s top executive – including his most recent tenure from 2011 to 2019 – has certainly been met with mixed reactions. Gavin Newsom now takes the reigns as the state’s governor, and time will tell how his leadership will play out for anglers and boaters. There are a few laws already in effect, however, as Newsom moves into the governorship. The laws mentioned below were approved as Brown’s final acts as California governor and directly effect anglers, boaters and the environment.
Technical changes to California’s Endangered Species Act officially went into effect this year. The changes allow the state’s Department of Fish and Wildlife to operate with greater flexibility while providing the public with a more transparent process of the agency’s endangered species decisions. Some of the specific updates to the Endangered Species Act include an expansion of the Safe Harbor program, added definitions for declining or vulnerable species, the creation of a non-regulatory process for the de-listing of species and an establishment of a public process prior to the adoption of recovery plans. Administrative costs associated with the technical changes to the Endangered Species Act could range between $500,000 and $1 million. Fees proposed within the updated law, however, could offset the costs.
Vessel Impoundment Law enforcement officers will be able to impound a boat or other personal watercraft if it was used during the commission of a crime, thanks to a bill Brown signed into law in September 2018. Assembly Bill 2175, which is now on the books, specifically gives harbor police, Sheriff’s deputies or other similar law enforcement departments the power to place a lien on any vessel or watercraft they believe, based upon probable cause, was used during a crime. The vessel or watercraft owner would be responsible for storage and

Plastic Straws Assembly member Ian Calderon, D-Whittier, successfully introduced a plastic straw restriction for certain restaurants. Plastic straw, as of Jan. 1, will only be available upon request at full-service dine-in restaurants. The new law does not apply to fast food restaurants. Brown signed the bill, which stated 835,425 straws were collected from California’s beaches between 1988 and 2014, in September 2018. It is the first-ever statewide law regulating the distribution of plastic straws at full-service dine-in establishments. “Straws are the sixth most common
California’s Ocean Protection Council was tapped to develop a Statewide Microplastics Strategy by Dec. 31, 2021. “The strategy would, in principle, foster partnerships and collaborations with various agencies and entities to address the presence of microplastics in the ocean,” The Log’s previous coverage on this strategy stated. “The existence of microplastics in the water is a subset of the larger marine debris phenomenon. Policy analysts in Sacramento stated microplastics could be found in the seafood we consume.” The strategy must be implemented by Dec. 31, 2024, according to the new law.
Div. of Boating and Waterways seeks input on mandatory boating education Public comment period for proposed rulemaking will be open until Jan. 28. By Parimal M. Rohit SACRAMENTO—California Division of Boating and Waterways (DBW) has proposed a new set of regulations to govern the state’s boating card and education requirements. Members of the boating public have until Jan. 28 to provide input and comment on the proposed rulemaking, which updates and clarifies requirements of the California Boater Card (CBC) program. A major proponent of the proposed rulemaking: mandatory safety education prior to the issuance of an official boater card. “Statistics show that states with some form of mandatory boating safety education have fewer accidents and fatalities. In 2016, there were 588 boating accidents in California, which resulted in 266 injuries, 50 fatalities and $3,911,886 in property damage.
Only two of the 50 boat operators involved in a fatal accident had taken a formal boating safety course,” the proposed rulemaking document stated. “Boaters learning safe boating practices can prevent boating accidents.” “The CBC program may cause an increase in persons taking and passing boating safety examinations, and this may positively impact businesses providing these examinations,” the proposed rulemaking document later stated. Fees already being collected for the CBC would cover associated costs for a mandatory boating safety education requirement. “Fees collected for CBC’s will be deposited into the Vessel Operator Certification Account, established within the Harbors and Watercraft Revolving Fund. Fees will be in an amount sufficient to cover reasonable costs of the program, but not exceed those costs,” the proposed rulemaking document stated. DBW officials stated the mandatory boating safety education requirement would reduce accidents and fatalities.
“Statistics show that states with some form of boating safety education have fewer boating accidents and fatalities. The CBC requirement will educate the boating public to establish safer waterways,” the proposed rulemaking document stated. Requiring boating safety education as part of the CBC process was not part of the original drafting and execution of California’s boater card programming. No public hearing is scheduled for the proposed rulemaking, as DBW has classified the proposal as a clarification of current law. A public hearing can be requested, however, within 15 days of the public comment period closing. “The Division [of Boating and Waterways] is not aware of any reasonable alternatives to the proposed regulations,” the proposed rulemaking document stated. “However, the division invites interested persons to present statements or arguments with respect to alternatives to the proposed regulations during the written comment period.” Boaters who seek to make com-
ments or have questions about the rulemaking process can reach out to Charley Hesse, a regulations analyst with DBW. Hesse can be reached via email at Charley.Hesse@parks.ca.gov, by regular U.S. Mail at California State Parks, Division of Boating and Waterways, One Capitol Mall, Suite 500, Sacramento, California 95814, or by calling 916-327-1741. All comments must be made in writing, identify the proposed regulatory action and sent directly to Hesse. The proposed rulemaking can be found on the DBW website (bit. ly/2VpwYvH). The state charges boaters who passed a boating safety course $10 for a California Boater Card. California implemented its boater card program on Jan. 1, 2018. By 2025 every boater in California must possess a boater card in order to operate a recreational vessel. Boaters between 16 and 25 years old, as of Jan. 1, 2019, are required to have a CBC; the card is still optional for everyone 26 and older. The next age group to be required to possess a CBC: 26-35 by Jan. 1, 2020.

NEWPORT BEACH—After a day out navigating the beautiful Pacific Ocean, there’s nothing better than grabbing a well-deserved dinner – especially when there are convenient dock and dine options and fine dining offered at discount. Newport Beach Restaurant Week is coming back from Jan. 14-27 and several restaurants participating are dock and dine. This event’s title is a little bit of a misnomer considering the week is actually two weeks, but who could complain about the opportunity to pay reasonable prices for some of the most acclaimed restaurants in Orange County? Encouraging locals to eat out at a grand selection of Newport’s restaurants, each participating eatery offers a variety of meal specials at a set price, some lunches priced as little as $10. Dinners range from $20 to $50 per person. Woody’s Wharf, located in Balboa
Peninsula, will be featuring dishes like seafood paella, crab-stuffed salmon and clam chowder. Lighthouse Bayview Café, another Balboa staple, has bayfront views and an fairly extensive dinner selection for $30. Waterline Newport Beach, located in Mariner’s Mile and an upscale eatery, will provide an appetizer choice, entrée (skirt steak or pan-roasted salmon) and a choice of dessert for $50 per person. Another fine-dining restaurant, Zinqué in Cannery Village, will provide a delicious $40 dinner including fancy versions of American classics like a grass-fed burger, lasagna, caprese salad and chocolate cake. Among the other dock and dine locations that will be taking part in restaurant week are Newport Landing Restaurant, Harborside Restaurant, A & O Kitchen + Bar, 3 Thirty 3 Waterfront, and more. Take the time to check out some of the most highly rated restaurants in the area for yourself by visiting visitnewportbeach.com/restaurant-week.

Catalina Connection Dive in for a good cause at Avalon Harbor’s 38th annual Underwater Cleanup AVALON — For the last 38 years, the annual Avalon Harbor Underwater Cleanup has attracted scuba divers for the honorable cause of ridding Avalon’s harbor of trash and waste. This cleanup has grown to be one of the most highly anticipated events for ocean patrons and divers alike, now attracting more than 500 volunteers. Catalina Conservation Divers and USC Catalina Hyperbaric Chamber invite divers to participate in this year’s event taking place on Saturday, February 23. According to USC Dornsife’s official website, last year’s event saw 498 participants gather 2,320 pounds of trash. There are several diving locations for the cleanup event including Casino Landing, Step Beach and Green Pier. Diving orientation begins on the day of the event at 9 a.m. and divers will enter the water at 9:30 a.m. Following the cleanup, raffle prizes will be announced at the award ceremony from 1 p.m. until 3 p.m. at the Wrigley

DFW updates Fish and Game Commission on MPA management State agency will continue to perform its outreach, regulatory and research duties.
OCEANSIDE — Department of Fish and Wildlife staff provided its firstever update on California’s Marine Protected Areas update during the Fish and Game Commission’s December 2018 meetings in Oceanside. The commission in 2016 directed DFW staff to provide annual MPA reports to the quasi-judicial agency. DFW staff will again provide an MPA report to commissioners toward the end of this year. Amanda Van Diggelen, an environmental scientist with DFW, stated California’s MPA Management Program is organized into four categories: outreach and education; research and monitoring; enforcement and compliance; and, policy and permitting. “The MPA Management Program guides the management of the statewide network of marine protected areas,” Van Diggelen told commissioners during her Dec. 11, 2018 presenta-

tion on California’s MPAs. Van Diggelen added the MPA Management Program is designed to ensure the MPA network is adaptively managed. Highlights of the management program, according to Van Diggelen, are statewide long-term monitoring of priority habitats (i.e. kelp forests and rocky intertidals) and working with the International Union of Conservation of Nature (IUCN). The association between DFW staff and IUCN is part of a larger play to
achieve global protected area management standards, according to Van Diggelen. Working with IUCN, Van Diggelen said, could allow California’s MPA network to be the first-ever listed on the union’s Green List Program. The program determines whether an MPA network meets certain global standards. DFW has also added more than 500 interpretive and regulatory signs in and around California’s MPAs, Van Diggelen added. More than 15,000 students, just
the same, participated in DFW’s Parks Online Resources for Teachers and Students (PORTS) since 2014. The department will continue to perform long-term statewide monitoring of the MPA network, starting as early as May of this year. Monitoring will be guided by the MPA Monitoring Action Plan. More than 11,000 MPA-related contacts were made between January and June 2018, Van Diggelen continued. She said 396 of those contacts were made for enforcement issues. Most of those enforcement contacts - 222 of them, to be exact - involved actual citations. The MPA statewide leadership team is lead by DFW and the Fish and Game Commission. Other members of the leadership team are California Water Boards, Ocean Protection Council, National Park Service, California Coastal Commission, California Ocean Science Trust, MPA Collaborative Network, National Marine Sanctuaries - West Coast Region, California State Parks, State Lands Commission, Resources Legacy Fund and regional tribal representation. A 10-year management review will take place in 2022.
Advocates say national fishing legislation will benefit saltwater anglers across the country. By Parimal M. Rohit
WASHINGTON, D.C.—Not even a partial federal government shutdown prevented the Modern Fish Act from becoming law. Pres. Donald J. Trump officially signed the Modern Fish Act on Dec. 31, meaning the landmark legislation is now officially on the books. Fishing advocates have hailed the bill, which is officially known as the Modernizing Recreational Fisheries Management Act of 2018, as a landmark law that distinguishes between recreational and commercial fishing
interests. Policymakers and fishery managers, for example, would be provided with certain tools to better manage federal fisheries, under the new law. An informational piece published by the American Sportfishing Association (ASA) about the Modern Fish Act stated federal law never featured dedicated policies to benefit the nation’s 11 million saltwater anglers. “As an industry, we contribute [more than] $70 billion to the economy each year and support 455,000 American jobs all over the country,” the ASA online flyer stated. “In spite of these impressive numbers, when it comes to federal management, our sport is frequently overlooked. “Federal laws have never properly
addressed the importance of recreational fishing,” the ASA flyer stated. “This has led to shortened or even canceled seasons, reduced bag limits and unnecessary restrictions.” Organizations such as the Center for Sportfishing Policy, National Marine Manufacturers The federal government might be partially shut down, but Pres. Trump still signed the Modern Fish Act into law. The signing drew praises from many Association (NMMA), Environmental Defense pro-fishing organizations. Fund and ASA all expressed long-standing support for stated the Modern Fish Act actually the Modern Fish Act. guts stringent overfishing protections There has been some opposition put in place by the Magnuson-Stevens to the bill, however.

San Diego Report
Bluefin, yellowtail and skipjack highlight start of 2019 offshore fishing season By Bob Vanian SAN DIEGO — Southern California anglers did not have to wait long for the 2019 offshore fishing season to begin as bluefin tuna and yellowtail are still hanging out in local waters. Anglers have been having to dodge a steady series of weather systems bringing rain, wind and high seas but the good weather days in between those systems have provided opportunities for anglers to fish offshore waters and have a chance at catching bluefin tuna, skipjack and kelp paddie yellowtail. I have no recent reports of marlin activity but with water as warm as 63 degrees offshore, it would not surprise me that much to get news of marlin activity. Most of the bluefin have been in the 20- to 60-pound class and they have been popping up in spots ranging from the deep water outside of the oil rigs in the Catalina Channel all the way down to the 9 Mile Bank outside of Point Loma. Within that rather large zone, the best areas have been in the deep water off the oilrigs in the Catalina Channel, 2 to 5 miles off the coast between Newport Beach and Crystal Cove as well as 2 to 5 miles off the coast between Box Canyon and the Carlsbad Canyon. Skippers have been locating bluefin tuna by finding spots of breaking fish, breezing fish, foaming fish, sonar marks or meter marks. Once located, anglers have had success while fishing with sardines, mackerel, Flat Fall jigs and surface iron. There has been a chance at locating kelp paddie yellowtail throughout the
same large expanse of ocean from the Catalina Channel on down to the 9 Mile Bank. The yellowtails have been ranging a bit further off the coast than the bluefin with the yellowtail being found out to about as far as 12 miles off the coast. The best sector for the kelp paddie yellowtail has been for boats fishing outside of the stretch between Box Canyon and the Golf Balls above Oceanside. Southern California skipjack in January has also been a reality, with a couple of the species to 12 pounds recently being reported caught aboard private boats. The fish were caught while trolling the offshore waters outside of Camp Pendleton. There has not been much news coming from Los Coronado Islands lately with the 2 most recent sportboat trips that I know of fishing the Islands over a week ago. At that time, the reports were there was good fishing with a mix of bonito, yellowtail, reds and assorted rockfish biting. Malihini out of H&M Landing fished Los Coronado Islands on Dec. 29, 2018 and had a fish count of 25 anglers on a full-day trip catching 200 rockfish, 35 reds, 5 calico bass, 1 sand bass, 1 sheephead, 3 lingcod, 18 bonito and 1 yellowtail. San Diego out of Seaforth Sportfishing fished Los Coronado Islands on Dec. 30, 2018 and had a fish count of 27 anglers catching 100 reds, 33 bonito and 34 yellowtails. Fisherman’s Landing had Pacific Queen fishing a 1.5-day trip with 32 anglers who caught 175 rockfish, 130 reds, 12 yellowtails and 3 lingcod. Point Loma Sportfishing had the New Lo-An fishing a 1.5-day trip with 23 anglers that
caught 67 yellowtails, 115 reds and 48 whitefish. Anglers fishing on the United States side of the Mexico border need to keep in mind the annual two-month rockfish/groundfish closure went into effect on Jan. 1. Anglers seeking to fish for the rockfish/groundfish species that are covered by the closure need to go to Mexican waters to fish for those species during the closure period. The fishing along the San Diego area coast is providing a mix of sand bass, calico bass and sculpin and has also been producing a few halibut and bonito. There are occasional sightings of yellowtail and anglers are hoping that a wintertime yellowtail bite will develop sometime soon. An area where there have been occasional showings of yellowtail has been at the rockfish grounds outside of Box Canyon. Hard bottom and structure areas have been best for the sand bass, calico bass and sculpin and the best areas for a chance at finding bonito action have been while fishing outside of Imperial Beach, by the Whistler Buoy at Point Loma, outside of the Green Tank at Point Loma, outside of Point Loma College and outside of the upper end of La Jolla. There have been a few halibut biting in coastal areas. Some productive halibut areas include the sandy bottom near the Aliso Pipeline off South Laguna Beach, the sandy bottom off South Ponto Beach, the sandy bottom next to the structure of the sunken NEL Tower located outside of Mission Beach, the sandy bottom next to the structure of the Yukon Shipwreck located outside of Mission Beach, San Diego Bay and while
Balboa Angling Club shared a photo of its first flag for 2019 – a 61-pound bluefin tuna caught with 80-pound test with lure aboard Disco Punk on Jan. 4. Jimmy Dekker spent 20 minutes fighting his catch before bringing it on board. Yellowtail, meanwhile, was the bite of the day on Pacific Queen’s first fishing expedition along the Baja California coast. “A little bit of quality yellowtail around and great fishing for tasty bottom fish,” the Pacific Queen Sportfishing Facebook post on Jan. 7 stated. Youth was served a few days earlier when Brayden Jenson posted a picture of him and his sheephead catch. Jenson caught the sheephead while fishing with Dana Wharf Sportfishing on Dec. 29, 2018. Bass, halibut, sculpin and yellowtail were the highlights of a Jan. 2 fishing trip aboard Native Sun out of 22nd Street Landing.

fishing sandy bottom areas outside of the Imperial Beach Pier. The 2019 fishing season has arrived and has already produced catches that include bluefin tuna, skipjack and yellowtail. It is important to watch the weather closely and to pick the good weather days to go out and do your fishing, but the good weather days have been providing a chance at having a fun day out on the water and catching some fish. Keep on fishing and I hope to see you out on the water! Bob Vanian is the voice, writer and researcher of the San Diego-based internet fish report service called 976-Bite which can be found at www.976bite. com. Vanian also provides anglers with a personal fish report service over the telephone at 619-226-8218. He always welcomes your fish reports at that same phone number or at bob976bite@aol. com.

The Accidental Marlin LOS CABOS, Mexico — A group of anglers aboard the private boat Expedition went fishing to tuna during this recent holiday season — and ended up catching a 175-pound marlin. Michael Lightfoot shared this photo of the marlin catch, which was made during the Western Tuna Championship in Los Cabos. “The fish weighed 175 pounds and I was told to get it in to the boat within 5 minutes or they were cutting line. It wasn’t a tuna so the captain wasn’t interested,” Lightfoot wrote to The Log in an email. [We had] three other fishermen [aboard]: Eric, Tom and another from Oklahoma. We had the captain, two deck hands and a cocktail waitress. We didn’t catch anything of size to win any of the pot money. Still had a great time.”
