After a wonderful night out in the city, I decided to go bass fishing in the San Francisco Bay. Actually, it was right off of Pier 39. I know, I know, why would you bass fish in the dirty ass bay? Well, I had heard from some local bum that he used to bass fish off of Pier 39 and would catch florida/northern strain largies.

Hungover, I decided to catch the Muni to the good ol’ pier. Skys were blue, but the wind was howling! I had no lures, so I went and bought a frozen bowl of clam chowder, stuck a hook in it and pitched it near the sea lion! BOOM! As soon as it hit the water, I was hooked into a pig!

It was a fish of a lifetime. MY NEW (offical)PB! You know what they say about double chins, Double Digits. A caught and released, 11 pound, 11 ouncer. That one is dedicated to my favorite fisherman, THE TURDZ (and my Dad)!
