The boats name is Hot Side Dish because my wife said it was as bad as my having another woman on the side. Who would have thought!
I use the boat for trout fishing in several N. California lakes, Bass fishing in the San Juaquin/Saramento River Delta and lakes, Striper fishing in the delta and the SF Bay, Halibut fishing in the SF Bay. I intend to go after Kokonee salmon sometime this year as well as a possible excursion to the Pacific if conditions are good. I am not that comfortable with going out in the ocean yet.
