Capitola: Wharf closure coming up soon
The Capitola Wharf is going to be closed for repairs starting next week Wednesday, October 21st. Â If everything goes as planned, it will re-open on the 1st of November. Â However, weather and of course cans of worms can interfere with the best laid plans of mice and men, so be sure to call us beforehand if you’re planning for something early in November. Â We’ll update the site as best we can as this thing progresses.

Wee Doggies
While the stenographer ne webmaster is willing to concede that we may well have had short gusts in excess of 50 knots (possibly well in excess), he’s not willing to say that we’ve had sustained 100mph winds. Â Methinks the anemometer just bit the big one.

Capitola: Plenty of boats available
One last note – as of this moment we have 18 (out of 20) boats available tomorrow. Â So the odds of your being able to rent a boat tomorrow morning without a reservation are very very good. Â And of course you can call ahead in the morning to be sure.

FREE-EST FISHING DAY EVER!!!
We apologize again for our tardiness, but better late than never:
Tomorrow September 7th 2009 is a free fishing day and a boat bucks day! The fishing derby is only for wharf fishing (so you can’t combine the two), but you can certainly do one after the other if you want (derby in the morning, get a boat in the afternoon).
If you happen to be in the area, this is a *great* opportunity to try out ocean fishing or introduce friends and family to your favorite past time. Â We have lots of boats available for tomorrow so it’s likely that you can just drop on in and rent a boat. If you want to be sure however, call ahead and make a reservation.

July 4th is a Free Fishing day!
For those of you who might not have heard, this Saturday July 4th is a Free Fishing Day – no fishing license is required to fish from a boat or beach all day that day! Â If you’ve always wanted to give fishing a try, this Saturday is definitely a good day for that. Â Call and reserve a boat soon – they’ll likely go fast!
Note: fishing from the wharf is *always* free to children and adults alike. Â There’s an exception to the fish licensing rules that applies to public wharves on the coast. Â If you just want to fish from the wharf, you never need a license.

Oops – a bug
Sorry folks – I had the Boccie Boy Bait troller all set up but I neglected to actually activate it, so today’s report is quite tardy. Â For the record – he has bait! Large sardines.

Added a couple more reports to the troller
I’ve added the Stagnaro Sportfishing and Reel Sport Fishing reports to the report troller.
[edit]
I’ve also added Boccie Boy Bait’s bait report page.

Santa Cruz: Finally!!!
We made all kinds of noise about it last year — and then nothing happened. Well, this year (in fact as of today), our Santa Cruz location has a new computer and an internet connection. So very shortly – you will start seeing regular posts from the other side of town in addition to the Capitola ones. Rejoice!

New feature brewing
Just a heads up: I’m putting together a thing I’m calling “Report Troller” that checks for and reports on updates to other fishing reports. Â Nothing fancy – it’ll just say “so and such report has an update” and include a link to the site. Â I’m enabling it now for just Bayside Marine, but it should work for some other pages as well. Â If you have a favorite report that you’d like to have the troller checking on, please leave a comment and I’ll see what I can do.
[edit]
I’ve added Captain Jimmy Charters and Monterey Bay Charters reports to this as well.

Happy Days Are Here Again (!!*LIVE BAIT*!!)
Direct from VHF channel 11 about 8 minutes ago: Boccie is at this very moment headed into the harbor with 70 (SEVENTY) scoops of live sardines in the 5-6 inch range. Â He and Kevin netted them just off New Brighton beach this evening.
This means:
* You can go see Boccie on S dock in the harbor and get yerself some perfect bait
* Things that eat bait are gonna be really happy about this

Weather system problem
Someone called today to report that the weather condition system was busted (thank you!). It looks like something got jammed up in the weather station itself – it had to be powered down completely. It’s working again, but I suspect this will occur every few months.

Thanks for your patience…
We’re having a bit of trouble with server load at the moment and are working on a solution – if the site is not responding, please try back later.

Fixed camera clock
The clock in the camera reset at some point in the winter – I’ve just set it properly so EXIF data in the photos will include the date & time the photo was taken again. To see the EXIF data, just click on any photo. If the date/time is absent, that’s a photo where the camera clock wasn’t set. Again – as of now the EXIF data should be correct.

New Boat Bucks!!
Here they are – hot off the presses: 2009 Boat Bucks!
Print yourself some boat bucks and get $10 off of an all-day boat rental Monday through Thursday.
This year we have two versions of bucks – one with a Capitola theme, one with a Santa Cruz one. Both versions of the bucks are valid in both locations, so it doesn’t matter which ones you print out. If you like orange print the Capitola ones, if you’re more into green, go for the Santa Cruz ones.
The links on the right side are to PDF files with three bucks each, or you can print the images on the left – just click into them to get a bigger version. Â Note that the PDF versions are easier and generally look better (provided you have a PDF viewer installed).
