Dory Fishing Fleet Market: The Last Historic Beachside Cooperative Selling out of crab before 5:30 a.m. and encountering a great white shark while diving for urchins is all in a day’s work.

Secrets to Grabbing Your Catch

NEWPORT BEACH — Growing up walking distance to Huntington Beach’s coastline and mere miles from Newport Beach’s border, as well as having a father who was an avid amateur fisherman, our family would often frequent the Newport Beach Pier.

As a kid, I remember seeing the piles of bright orange rock fish at Newport Pier and seeing men who were quintessential fishermen types with tweed and knitted caps, beards, and long, tied-up hair as well as the fishy aroma combined with the salty sea air.

During the final week of December, more than two decades since my first visit, I arrived at Dory Fishing Fleet Market around 5 in the morning —not much has changed on first glance.

Once you see Dory Fishing Fleet Market, you are taken back to the late 1800s. You know you are in a different place, especially in the quaint quarters where Newport Pier is and where Dory Fishing Fleet Market is located, and the market is as homegrown as the oceans

Eager shoppers stand in line well before dawn to purchase fish, crab and other delectable seafood at Dory Fishing Fleet Market the day before New Year’s Eve.

of Newport Beach.

Known as “the last beachside cooperative of its kind in the United States,” Dory Fishing Fleet Market is truly a one-of-a-kind experience with an extensive, long-lived history that backs up its reputation. In late 1891, a fisherman began selling his fish to the public in an enterprising move that began to garner interest from the Newport Beach locals. By the time June of 1969 rolled around, Dory Fishing Fleet had already seen 78 years of business —

and probably too many fish to count — and was registered as a permanent historic landmark.

“Crabby” Steve Escobar, the current owner, purchased Dory Fishing Fleet in 1991 and still owns and operates it to this day. A very friendly and approachable person with a good sense of humor, Escobar was there early on Saturday interacting with customers and overseeing that operations ran smoothly.

While we talked about the market,

Escobar asked me if I had met Pierre Charest, the fleet’s sea urchin diver.

“Pierre saw a great white shark for the first time diving for urchins. That was the first time in over 20 years of diving. Can you imagine? It’s amazing, but also a pretty scary thing when you think about it. Really very life-affirming.” Escobar said.

Escobar and Charest are at Dory Fishing Fleet Market every Saturday offering their catch, which can be anySee DORY’S FISHING page 7

The Corps of Cadets began in 1962 at Texas A&M in College Station. A year later, the program began on the Galveston campus, which was a year after the campus was founded.

The goal of the program is to develop disciplined young adults who are ready to take on any job thrown at them, officials said.

MONACO — How would it appear to see a 100-meter tall boat constructed to look like an origami sailing boat speed across the waters? George Lucian answers this question with his latest yacht design, modeled after inspiration from the ever-popular Japanese paper-folding art form.

In November 2017, Lucian, a Monaco-based artist and yacht designer, unveiled his brand new concept: a sailing yacht, which also shares her name with the Japanese art form as well as a lightweight structure that resembles paper.

Bezecny is the chief of staff for the Corps of Cadets, which is just one leadership role available to a cadet. After freshman year, cadets are allowed to apply for various positions to expand their roles in the programs.

Some of those positions include division officer, executive officer and commanding officer.

Every Wednesday, cadets in the program have to meet at 5:45 a.m. for physical training and are required to attend formations every day at 7:15 a.m. Although classes vary, many Maritime Academy classes begin at 8 a.m.

Underclassmen have to participate in three hours of study hall every evening with a curfew at 10:30 p.m.

Re: NMMA: Federal tax reform provides “wins” for marine industry” (Dec. 29-Jan.11 issue)

Where’s the cap?

What can be done to convince California to put a cap on sales tax on boats so that state collects some tax rather than most large boat purchases going out of state to pay nothing? Boats are highly overtaxed; both sales tax on purchase and annual property tax is just like a home. Florida has an $18,000 cap, which collects quite a lot of tax. California always seems to address its fiscal mismanagement by further increasing the already high tax rates. As more companies and taxpayers move out of the state to avoid the high taxes, the answer is to raise taxes on those who remain.

Make Offshore Drilling Great Again?

Trump Administration Seeks Oil Exploration Interior Department outlines plan to add up to 47 new oil and gas leases, including six off California coast.

By Parimal M. Rohit

NATIONWIDE — The return of offshore drilling to California’s popular coast appears to be in vogue again, thanks to Pres. Donald J. Trump’s “Make America Great Again” agenda. As many as six offshore locations along California’s coast could be designated for oil leases, part of a great plan under the Trump Administration to establish the U.S.’s energy dominance.

An Interior Department announcement, made Jan. 4 by Sec. Ryan Zinke, outlined a national plan to expand offshore drilling along the Atlantic Seaboard and Pacific Ocean Coast, as well as in the Gulf of Mexico and Arctic Ocean.

The drilling plan would be executed during a five-year stretch and, according to the Associated Press, open the door for new oil and gas exploration in areas previously protected from such activity.

In all the United States could add 47 new oil and gas leases at various offshore locations surrounding the country. The stretch of ocean between San Diego and Crescent City could be home to six of the seven planned drilling locations in the Pacific region. Another 19 locations could be designated off the coast of Alaska. Also targeted: the Gulf of Mexico (12 possible locations) and Atlantic region (9 possible locations).

The Southern California zone, which essentially covers the coast between San Luis Obispo and the U.S.-Mexico border in San Diego, could see two new offshore drilling leases by 2022, according to the “Zinke Plan.” Other leases in Central and Northern California could go into effect by 2023.

Oil leases for offshore drilling would not be allowed within a national marine sanctuary – such as Channel Islands or Monterey Bay – or in state waters. All other waters between 3 and 200 miles offshore would be fair game for drilling.

What role would other state agencies play in the next few years, assuming the proposed oil leases are realized? Will such leases be subSee STANDING WATCH page 10

FAST FACTS:The early days of Purse Seine in SoCal SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA — The Southern California coast is no stranger to purse seine fishing. A handful of vessels practiced the fishing technique in local waters in the early 20th century.

The practice still continues today at Ventura Harbor, among other places.

An entry in the Fish and Game Commission’s Fish Bulletin – published in 1925 – stated Southern California purse seine industry was on the verge of disappearing altogether shortly after World War I – partly due to declining demand in certain fish (such as bluefin tuna) and the disappearance of the war economy. “[The] economic losses during the years of 1920, 1921 and 1922 were very heavy,” a portion of the digest stated.“At the present time only about a half a dozen of the purse seine boats of Southern California are independent. The rest are more or less heavily mortgaged to, or owned by, banks, canneries or other concerns.”

The digest entry specifically connected the purse seine industry’s early 1900s success to World War I. “It may be just to say that the purse seine indus-

try of Southern California became a victim of the economic crisis following the war “boom.” It grew and collapsed as a result of market conditions,” the digest entry stated.“If conditions do not improve in the near future, the short, meteor-like history of the purse seine industry of Southern California probably will be brought to a sudden end.”

The digest entry continued to say the purse seine industry could survive with the “development of superior and more economical types of boats and methods … [resulting] in the evolution of a new fleet upon the ruins of the old.”

thing from rock crab, spider crab, sea snails, urchin and lobster.

Somewhat of local fishing legends, the Voyatzis Fishing Fleet is present on Saturdays and Sundays selling prawns, sea trout, sculpin and more. Three generations of fishermen have come from their family, beginning with Stratos Voyatzis who came here from Russia.

His sons Marco and Coco are currently working at Dory Fishing Fleet Market today.

Two other fisherman operate out of Dory Fishing Fleet Market currently as well including West Caught Fish Company and Giacomo D’Amato Seafood, both who specialize in fish such as sea trout, red snapper and more.

As far as the fish harvest goes, Escobar states that they like to keep it local, but some fishing is also done in Asia to keep up with demands.

One very different change to the market is the incorporation of social media. Like many modern businesses, Escobar has embraced social media and it seems to be working. Escobar tweets out what kinds of fish, crab, and other goodies will be available each Friday, informing eager shoppers what will be available. While Escobar remembers a time when he could identify almost every person who came to the market regularly, those days are mostly gone. Now, there are more people than every lining up to claim fresh crab or yellowtail.

“I feel bad that people aren’t able to get their fish, but at the same time this has been a lot of fun,” Escobar said.

Stacy Vo, a regular at the Dory Fishing Fleet and who used to live right around the corner from it, waxes nostalgic on the days when it used to be simple to take home a haul of delicious spotted prawn without the massive crowd.

“It used to be no problem to get the fish of your choice when people started lining up at 4:30 in the morning. Now it’s a little different,” Vo said.

On the Saturday before New Year’s Eve, it was reported that people began standing in line around 2 a.m. to pur-

isfy more customers than ever, other changes have not been a huge concern to Escobar.

In response to the challenges they face as fishermen, such as storms and re-protected closures that infringe upon fishing, Escobar said, “Whatever you do, there is always challenges. All in all, it’s a good job.”

In many ways, Dory Fishing Fleet market is as popular as it’s ever been, possibly even more so thanks to social media. I missed the boat this time, but next time I’ll be prepared to get some of that stone crab and more.

was not identified.

The man had sailed from Panama more than 100 days ago, and he was on his way to Australia when weather forced him to Hawaii, officials said.

A Coast Guard response boat towed his vessel, the Kehaar Darwin, to Sugar Beach on Maui.

The man’s boat did not contain communication equipment or an engine and his sails were in poor condition, officials said.

“Being disoriented while at sea in a vessel with no communication capabilities aboard can be deadly if not handled quickly,” said Petty Officer 2nd Class Jacob Schlereth, a boarding officer and engineer at Station Maui. “We commend the Good Samaritan for recognizing the complications and contacting the proper authorities to initiate a rescue.”

U.S. Customs and Border Protection will interview the man before he continues his voyage.

Unusually cold temperatures stunning East Coast sea turtles and manatees TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — As Florida experiences unusually cold temperatures and even snow in some parts, wildlife officials are keeping a close eye on vulnerable manatees and sea turtles.

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission says they’ve already rescued nearly 100 turtles so far.

When temperatures drop, stunned sea turtles may float listlessly in the water on or near shore. They may appear dead but are often still alive.

Manatees head for warmer waters, such as discharge canals, power plants and natural springs, when the temperatures plunge. Wildlife officials are asking boaters to be extra vigilant and to avoid areas where large numbers of manatees have gathered. Sustaining adequate winter habitat for manatees has been a statewide conservation goal.

Wildlife officials want residents to report distressed animals to their alert hotline at 888-404-3922.

Officials examine methods to control invasive fish species FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) — The National Park Service is considering measures like electric shocks, fish barriers, genetic techniques and other means to reduce invasive fish species in the Grand Canyon and Glen Canyon areas in northern Arizona.

The Arizona Daily Sun reports the park service was spurred to take action due to the rising number of invasive brown trout and green sunfish in the Colorado River.

Some of the proposed control actions are drawing concern from environmental organizations and the Arizona Game and Fish Department.

Techniques like electrofishing – the process of putting an electric current into the water to stun fish – have been criticized. Opponents say the process would reflect poorly on the fishery and may negatively affect other fish.

Park service officials say they’re examining the control options and taking suggestions.

MONTEREY, Calif. (AP) — If all goes as planned, the boat that took John Steinbeck and marine biologist Ed Ricketts on their expedition to the Sea of Cortez will come sailing back into Monterey Bay in a few years.

The Monterey Herald reports the 77-foot wooden purse seiner Western Flyer is being restored at Port Townsend, Washington.

The boat was chartered in 1940 for the voyage to the Sea of Cortez, which is also known as the Gulf of California, and led to

Steinbeck’s 1951 book “The Log From the Sea of Cortez.’’

Western Flyer Foundation project director Chris Chase tells the Herald it’s “a living, breathing continuation of Ed Ricketts and John Steinbeck.”

Ricketts inspired the character Doc in Steinbeck’s “Cannery Row” and “Sweet Thursday.” He died in 1948. Steinbeck died in 1968.

Cabin cruiser stolen from Marriott Marina at Port of San Diego SAN DIEGO — On Jan. 4, an incident involving the theft of an 80-foot cabin cruiser took place at Marriott Marina. After several 911 calls were placed, Port of San Diego Harbor Police responded to reports

of the theft. The suspect, 31-year-old Joshua Collins of San Diego, was taken into custody by police and is being charged with Grand Theft and Felony Vandalism as well as other charges.

Witnesses described seeing a male ascend the marina security gates and board the vessel, then embark on the vessel. As the boat drifted into an adjacent dock, a boat owner attempted to stop the stolen vessel from drifting into his dock and sustained a head injury, falling into the water.

Another vessel owner attached a line from the stolen vessel to his dinghy, holding the vessel in place until the police could arrive. No one suffered from lifethreatening injuries.

Standing Watch From page 6

ject to California Coastal Commission approval, for example? These and many more questions should certainly be asked as the public input process plays out.

Of course the six potential drilling sites off the California coast are part of a larger plan, according to the Department of Interior.

A statement issued by the Department of Interior, which is headed

by Zinke, said the 47 proposed drilling sites is the third most ever proposed for a five-year schedule of the National Outer Continental Shelf Program.

Zinke, in a published statement coinciding with the administration’s announcement of its offshore drilling plan, said his department would oversee a “lengthy and robust public comment period,” meaning stakeholders and voters across the country will have an opportunity to chime in and potentially dictate the extent of Trump’s proposed policy.

He added out the proposed plan is just that – a proposal. Nothing is final, as of yet.

“Not all areas are appropriate for offshore drilling,” Zinke said in his released statement. “We will take that into consideration in the coming weeks.

The important thing is we strike the right balance to protect our coasts and people while still powering America and achieving American Energy Dominance.”

It’s difficult to disagree with such a platitude or broad brushstroke of a

thelog.com

statement. Protecting our coastlines, while pursuing energy goals seems like a reasonable goal. The question comes down to cost – not necessarily dollars and cents, but instead effects on our environment.

California, for example, has not issued any oil leases for offshore drilling since 1984. Is there a good reason why we held off on such leases for nearly 34 years? What have we gained from the nearly two-generation moratorium? Did such gains, if any and whether tangible or otherwise, come with certain opportunity costs?

Gov. Jerry Brown joined his counterparts in Oregon and Washington in stating the “Zinke Plan” is dangerous to the Pacific coast’s overall ecosystem and environment.

“They’ve chosen to forget the utter devastation of past offshore oil spills to wildlife and to the fishing, recreation and tourism industries in our states,” Brown, Oregon Gov. Kate Brown and Washington Gov. Jay Insleet said in a joint statement. “They’ve chosen to ignore the science that tells us our climate is changing and we must reduce our dependence on fossil fuels. But we won’t forget history or ignore science.”

Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-California, said the “days for drilling are numbered.”

The United States, she said, should pursue clean energy alternatives, which she believed could “grow our economy faster without jeopardizing our coastal economies and natural resources.”

Feinstein cited the Santa Barbara oil spill of 1969 as a reason why offshore drilling would be a bad idea off the California coast.

“It’s particularly shocking that the administration is pushing for new oil drilling off the coast of California,” Feinstein wrote in a released statement. “We still remember the horror of the 1969 Santa Barbara spill, when an offshore oilrig leaked more than 100,000 barrels. There has been no new drilling in state waters since that spill and no new drilling in federal waters off the coast of California since 1984.”

The senior senator from California stated she would oppose the Trump Administration’s plan.

Also opposing the “Zinke Plan” was California’s junior senator, Kamala Harris. She described the push for increased offshore drilling as “harmful.”

TAKE ACTION Action by the Interior Department could be molded by public comment.

Are you in favor of offshore drilling?

Do you think the United States should consider energy alternatives? Would protected stretches of ocean be negatively affected by oil and gas exploration within federal waters?

Zinke’s proposal also drew opposition from Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, who stated the Interior Department’s plan to increase offshore drilling would be a threat to her state’s marine resources.

“I continue to oppose efforts to open Maine’s coast to drilling, which poses significant risk to marine and coastal resources, our economy, and our way of life,” Collins stated on Twitter.

Meanwhile The Sierra Club hinted it would explore legal options to challenge the Administration’s ambitious plan to expand the nation’s offshore drilling initiatives.

Bill Cassidy, R-Louisiana, stated offshore drilling expansion would create jobs and strengthen the U.S.’s energy position.

“Opening the Eastern Gulf of Mexico to American energy producers will create thousands of jobs in Louisiana and other Gulf Coast states, and bring billions of dollars of investment to our country. This proposal would mean better paychecks and opportunities for American workers and more affordable energy for their families.”

Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Florida, meanwhile, urged Zinke and the Department of Interior to recognize a moratorium on offshore drilling in the Eastern Gulf of Mexico. The east coast of Florida was hit hard by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill of 2010, leasing to a moratorium on drilling until 2022. Rubio hopes to extend the moratorium until 2027.

Also opposing the Interior Department proposal was Florida’s Republican governor, Rick Scott.

Supporters of offshore drilling, conversely, also argued oil spills aren’t common phenomena and responsible planning of rigs and energy extraction wouldn’t cause significant environmental harm.

The question is whether the devil is in the details. Sound bites from legislators and Trump Administration members don’t really pierce the veil of what’s really going on with the Interior Department’s proposal.

Seven sites in the Pacific region could be home to new offshore drilling projects, but what would those projects entail? Zinke’s proposal did not reveal much, other than to point out 43 oil leases are currently in producing status within the Southern California planning area alone.

SAN DIEGO — After WWII, Polynesian and Hawaiian influences were one of the hippest cultural integrations around with an interest in “tiki culture” that exploded onto the scene. Much of this began when military members from the WWII era came back from his or her deployment bringing stories from the South Pacific. Thinking back to the days of Don the Beachcomber’s, Trader Vic’s or Bali Hai’s initial beginnings, there was a fascination with the island life — and a whole array of delicious rum cocktails that were born from this fascination. Drinks such as the Mai Tai, Zombie, and Blue Hawaiian were all made popular back during the earlier half of the 20th century and still continue to be top Happy Hour choices today.

Catalina Island’s Unique Hydrocoral in Danger: Who Will Protect It? Organizations hesitate to rescue purple coral despite Ocean Protection Council’s recognition of petition and availablity of funds to initiate project.

By Devon Warren

CATALINA ISLAND — Off of Catalina Island’s Windward Beach coasts near Ben Weston Point, Farnsworth Bank is situated. A popular destination for fishers and divers, there is also a beautiful underwater ecosystem that houses the rare purple hydrocoral, Stylaster californicus, of Catalina. Two spot octopi and giant kelp are also notable species that live in these waters as reported by a marine survey completed in 2012 by the Ocean Protection Council.

While California is usually a haven to support and protect her natural resources, Catalina’s purple coral has been in limbo since the 1970s, waiting to see the day where anchors will not demolish the fragile coral bed.

Coral is a mostly protected species in the oceans off the coast of California.

A beautiful and valuable species in their native marine ecosystems, home to all kinds of creatures under the sea, coral is also admired by human life to their detriment. California has no true reef-building corals, but instead a type of solitary cup coral, which makes it actually more relatable to a sea anemone or a Portuguese man-of-war. The solitary-cup coral is softer, without a hard structure like a species found in coral reefs, and will sometimes be kept in aquarium tanks.

For some time, the coral was harvested to make jewelry, even though the porous, brittle dried coral does not make very flattering jewelry and coral has seen much destruction from mooring boats, which cast their anchors tearing up pieces of the coral bed.

In 1972, Catalina declared the purple hydrocoral was a protected species.

However, not much has been done since and each year the coral is still decimated. Some say it takes 25 years for 1.5 inches of damaged or broken off portion of this breed of coral to grow back.

Cyndi Dawson, Marine Protected Areas Policy Advisor at Ocean Protection Council, stated issues are still being addressed. “Fishing and diving charters currently visit Farnsworth Bank, located on the back side of Catalina Island, over 200 times per year with each boat’s anchor potentially causing damage to the purple hydrocoral that lives there.”

Dawson continued, “Places where purple hydrocoral grows are highly prized by divers and drive an active dive charter business in this area. Anchor damage to the hydrocoral that breaks off coral heads takes decades to repair and compromises the habitat this coral forms for other species.”

About one year ago, Dan Stephens of Ocean Safari Dive Club started a petition to protect this species with the hopes of taking cues from other ocean

Farnsworth Bank is a popular fishing and diving destination off the coast of Catalina Island near Ben Weston Beach. The purple hydrocoral, Stylaster californicus, can be found there and has been threatened by offshore activities for decades.

protection organizations and getting a buoy installed to keep the anchors of diving boats and other vessels from further damaging the coral reef.

Since then, the petition that was launched on change.org by Stephens has gained over 15,000 signatures. But still, there is a barrier in finding a nonprofit or other entity to support the next steps.

In Stephens’ petition, he proposed that the answer to the rapid decimation of the coral population in Farmsworth Bank could be relatively simple — at least upon first reading.

“For 35 years Florida National Marine Sanctuary (FNMS) and Hawaii have been using a program that saves hundreds of coral reefs every day,” the petition read. “This program involves putting a permanent mooring buoy over a site so that divers and fishers could visit without repeatedly dropping, setting, and resetting anchors. To date, FNMS has established over 750 of those buoys to protect its marine habitats. The Ocean Safari diving community proposes a similar initiative at Farnsworth Bank.”

Initially, the petition seemed to do its job and funds were granted to support a project, which included putting buoys out near Farnsworth Bank. Stephens contacted Sec. Laird through the Ocean Protection Council website requesting help to install a buoy at Farnsworth Bank. At first, the endeavor was met with a response to save the hydrocoral, but soon more obstacles came.

“Unfortunately we could not locate

an entity willing to take this project on despite tireless work and effort by Dan Stephens and the Dive Club,” stated Dawson, the advisor who has been working with Stephens and his partner Gabe Lu to get a mooring buoy out at Farnsworth. “Many NGOs and academic institutions were approached.”

While the idea of placing buoys seems to have worked for marine life in other areas of the United States, there are still issues being addressed namely finding a party who will not only be able to secure a permit from California State Lands Commission, United States Coast Guard, and Army Corp of Engineers, but who will also be able to finance the upkeep and maintenance of the buoy after it has been installed.

After approaching several NGOs and educational institutions, Gabe Lu, a member of Ocean Safari Dive Club, forwarded his take on why there seems to be no funding for Farnsworth Bank.

Among some of the most common reasons seemed to be that the entities pursued were afraid to take on the liability of the project, the cost was too high, the responsibility of maintaining the buoys were strenuous, they did not have the resources to take on a project like this one, some may not be suited to do such projects and also some programs do not have this type of project in their jurisdiction.

Staff at The Log can personally attest to the final bullet point. While gathering information and trying to locate the contacts for the project (or locating anyone who had vast knowledge about the hydrocoral in general), it was a difficult task. For one reason or another, the reefs at Farnsworth Bank are overlooked time and time again.

Dawson summarized some of the major issues in finding a party willing to commit to the project, stating, “We secured funds to support this project,

but the key issue was finding a grantee that has the capacity to take on the significant permitting that will need to happen to place the buoys.”

Dawson continued, “It will require a permit from U.S. Coast Guard, State Lands, Coastal Commission and Army Corp of Engineers. Another key sticking point was finding an organization that will legally commit to the upkeep and maintenance of the buoy indefinitely or have the funds available for removal if it can no longer be maintained.”

Frustrated, Stephens stated, “Most of these NGO’s and organizations are just offices with pretty pictures on their walls of nature scenes. They collect money, but really they don’t get their hands dirty.”

“Real change comes from the divers, hikers, birdwatchers who are out there in the environment; the people who see what is going on,” Stephens continued.

“The NGO’s are too distant from the places they say they are protecting. I know my judgment is harsh, but it is the way I feel and we as environmentalists don’t have the time to be soft — the planet doesn’t have time to wait.”

While these organizations may seem callous and unfeeling to some, there is also the measure of liability, cost, and the maintenance of such a buoy. Especially a buoy in the location of Farnsworth Bank where there will be no fiscal profit to maintain it such as buoys placed in a harbor location.

Organizations on Catalina Island were also approached initially, but it appears there was either no interest or nothing came from those contacts.

Dawson said while this project has not had complete success yet, it could provide a basic model for other projects like it that may be beneficial to protecting other ocean life.

“Piloting and clearly documenting the process to install dive boat mooring buoys at Farnsworth will not only provide protection for Farnsworth, but will lay out the process for others to pick up at other locations in California where there is high interest. We remain committed to exploring options as they arise to get this project done,” Dawson stated.

What might be the most disappointing bit of information is that almost any organization with the funds and resources to begin this project has the ability to, but the interest has just not been there so far.

“Anyone can take on the buoy project, not just an NGO,” Dawson stated.

“They would just have to have proof of fiscally sound management and success completing projects of similar scope and scale. The bottom line is an organization must take on not just the installation but the upkeep and maintenance.”

One of the biggest questions is why — why hasn’t anyone really taken the initiative to do anything for the hydrocoral in Farnsworth Bank like some other species in California? Surely, there are other creatures that are ignored the way the hydrocoral has been, but for what purpose?

Ventura Harbor offers refuge to Thomas Fire evacuees The Thomas Fires consumed local coastal cities, but boaters showed they were prepared to handle such emergencies.

By Devon Warren

VENTURA COUNTY — The Thomas Fire, which steadily engulfed areas of Southern California in flames, recently made history as the state’s worst fire ever. In an especially horrific year for California fires, many have lost their properties and more during the holiday season, a time when normally families come together in front of the fireplace, not the other way around. Ventura and Santa Barbara counties have recently experienced some of the worst damage in California.

Anthony Alcock, a British ex-patriot and author who lives aboard his yacht in Ventura Harbor, said, “The massive Thomas Fire has created enormous clouds of toxic ash and micro-particles, the distribution of which is totally dependent upon the direction and speed of the winds at any one time.

Much of it is deposited, or dissipates, over the Pacific Ocean due to the current easterly so-called Santa Ana winds.”

He continues, “Here in Ventura Harbor it is a daily crap shoot. Since

Catalina Coral From page 14

Lu theorizes, “I think that anchoring on our hydrocoral reefs is a bad habit that people have been doing for as long as anyone remembers, even since anyone was concerned about conservation. Because everyone was doing it, no one was really trying to fight against it before we launched our project.

Mooring buoys have been implemented on many reefs around the world, but California is one of the slower places to start implementing it — it’s similar to our use of plastic bags. Even though numerous countries started to ban plastic bags, the US has been slow to implement it.”

it began in early December, we have had a couple of clear days and a mix of unpleasantly smoky days to downright toxic days.”

Janet Lawson, a member of Ventura Yacht Club, also commented on the poor air quality, stating, “The air quality has been horrible. Some members have left the area because of the smoke.

“Anyone with a medical condition should not be here. I have an office in the harbor and we had to close for 2.5 days because the smoke was so bad,” Lawson continued. “At times we have worn out N95 masks in the office.

Depending on the wind it is either tolerable or horrible. With the wind blowing it is not so bad. When the wind quits the smoke just lays here. People who are staying have or have purchased air scrubbers.”

Despite the blazing flames, which continue to devour surrounding forests each day, Ventura Harbor has become a safe haven, a real-life safe harbor where evacuees can flock to for a barbecue put on by Ventura Yacht Club and the resilience of its citizens are determined to carry on with the annual boat parade.

Harbor Master John Higgins elaborated on the scene, where blackouts and strong winds have been major issues.

“During this time the harbor,

already a place of comfort within the community began to welcome the numerous evacuee’s from the neighboring hillsides. Our Harbor Patrol Officers opened all the parking lots, provided security to the evacuees, and accommodated their special needs,” Higgins told The Log. “The first night and the nights following there were [more than] 100 evacuees in various vehicles, campers, and trailers throughout the harbor.”

Higgins proudly stated the labors to help the evacuees were overall a success.

“Our harbor takes great pride in the fact that we were able to assist in small but meaningful ways during this natural disaster,” he told The Log. “As the Harbormaster I am proud to say boaters are and have always been some of the most prepared people to handle emergencies. Boaters are taught to respect Mother Nature and preparation is the best way to adapt to its challenges. This philosophy along with the strong sense of community and family makes our harbors special within California’s communities.

We would also like to thank the local marinas for opening up their parking lots and assisting the evacuees during this time.”

With the rapidly blowing Santa Ana winds, the fires have been difficult to

contain and began spreading to Santa Barbara.

When asked about the status of the harbor in Santa Barbara, Harbor Operations Manager Mick Kronman told The Log, “We cancelled the Dec. 10th Parade of Lights. [There is] lots of smoke and ash, some electrical interruptions, but no physical damage to speak of. Keeping Stearns Wharf wet with saltwater wet-downs.”

The Thomas Fire surpassed the record as the largest fire in history, which was previously held by the Cedar Fire. Effecting areas in San Diego County in October 2003, the Cedar Fire burned over 273,000 acres of land.

During the Thomas Fire, the state of California spent $110 million fighting the fires in what has also been a record year for firefighters dispatched.

Firefighter Cory David Iverson, 32, was a victim of the fire.

In response to the disaster, United Way of Ventura County and United Way of Santa Barbara have combined to create a joint fund with 100 percent of the proceeds going to the victims of the Thomas Fires and American Red Cross in the region. If you are interested in donating or receiving updates on how you can volunteer, visit the website unitedwaythomasfirefund.org or call 805-485-6288.

In the end, we’re left wondering: What are the next steps to ensuring the hydrocoral along with the other creatures in this environment are protected? At this time, no organization has claimed the project and until that is done, the purple hydrocoral will be waiting, hopefully avoiding too much further damage. How much longer will it continue to wait before a resolution is made? And by that time, will it be too late?

For more information about Farnsworth Bank and the project to save the hydrocoral, contact the Ocean Protection Council for California Marine Protected Areas at COPCpublic@resources.ca.gov.

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA — The calendar tells us we’re in 2018, and while this is a time of year when we generally look forward let’s spend a few moments looking back the many holiday boat parades held in December 2017.

It was a challenging time for some, what with the Thomas Fire forcing officials at Santa Barbara Harbor to put their holiday boat parade on hold.

Boat parades in Ventura and Oxnard, however, went on despite a recordbreaking blaze looming in the nearby hills.

Meanwhile boaters in Marina del Rey, Redondo Beach, Los Angeles, Long Beach, Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, Dana Point, Oceanside and San Diego took to the waterways with the brightest of lights and most festive of decorations to celebrate the holidays.

Yacht clubs, port districts, private associations and others welcomed revelers in the days leading up to Christmas, as boat owners cruised local waterfronts aboard festively-decorated boats to commemorate the holiday season.

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 2017 boat parade champions are listed below. Congratulations to all the winners!

spray them with a corrosion inhibitor,” he added.

With the lower temperatures boaters often want to use the heating cycle on their air conditioning systems. But, since the temperate SoCal weather usually doesn’t require use of air conditioning, air filters and raw water strainers can get clogged without owners’ noticing, causing the system to malfunction. Coleman advises removing filters and strainers and cleaning them under running water, which can prevent expensive repairs.

Did you know most boat fires are electrical in origin? Winter is a great time to have a professional marine electrician go over your electrical system to make sure your wiring is still supple and not brittle, your connectors are fully functional and your electrical system meets your needs. Before adding more electronics, including flat-panel displays, telecommunications, entertainment and computerized systems, make sure you’re not overloading your circuits.

My favorite of Coleman’s recommendations: Take advantage of the slower winter months to read the manuals for your boat’s many systems and make sure you understand what they can do

SAN DIEGO — Now that the holidays are over and cooler temperatures have arrived, it’s the perfect time to prepare for the coming boating season and attend to needed maintenance projects.

Recently I chatted with San Diego and Newport Beach-based South Coast Yachts’ service director, Greg Coleman, and was so impressed with his approach towards winterizing I wanted to share his maintenance recommendations with readers.

Coleman, who came to SoCal from Rhode Island, where winterizing boats is essential for surviving harsh winters, also oversees the firm’s yacht maintenance services for both sail and powerboats.

“Build into your winterizing an automatic review of all your systems,” he suggested. Whether you do your own maintenance or hire professionals, be sure to use a comprehensive checklist so that none of your systems are missed.

You can develop your own from checklists available online or ask your yacht maintenance service.

Specific to sailboats, he advises having a complete rigging inspection, sending someone up the mast in a bosun’s chair to inspect and lubricate all moving parts and replace any parts showing wear, as Download your manuals for off-line access or print hard copies of your manuals well as check for use in case of a power outage.

Oceanside SEA Center moves forward with renovation plans Former site of Helgren’s Landing will be revamped to create a new marine-life experience.

OCEANSIDE — The impending move of Oceanside SEA Center into its new home at one corner of San Diego County’s northernmost harbor has barely created any dust. Chatter of such dust settling, accordingly, would be premature. Yet that did not stop Ernie Prieto from inviting The Log over to the former Helgren’s Landing headquarters and sharing a vision of the future.

A lifelong fisherman and native of Los Angeles, Ernie Prieto, who is partnered with Capt. Joe Cacciola of Sea Star Charters, relocated his family to northern San Diego County to help bring the magic of the Oceanside SEA Center to life. Previously, Prieto moved Chubasco from Long Beach to Mission Bay to operate Chubasco Sportsfishing in 2001.

An acronym, the “SEA” in Oceanside SEA Center stands for sportsfishing, education and adventure, perfectly describing the shared vision of Prieto, Cacciola and their team in a nutshell.

A collective concept, Oceanside SEA Center will bring the worlds of fishing and marine science together with an unforgettable experience.

With the enthusiasm of a kid on Christmas morning, Prieto gave The Log the grand tour of planned Oceanside SEA Center, a building that for now one needs a little imagination to envision.

When Prieto and Cacciola signed the lease for Oceanside SEA Center, it was sight unseen, partially because these kinds of properties are so rare to come by, but mostly because they believed in their dream. Prieto sees many grand plans and new attractions for lovers of marine life and fishermen alike to enjoy.

Downstairs there will be an area for sportfishing and ticket sales. There is already a cash register upfront, but it’s positioning will change with the

Oceanside SEA Center, the previous location of Helgren’s Landing, will offer a unique experience to harbor visitors by partnering with PIER. Common misconceptions aside, Oceanside SEA Center will continue to offer sportsfishing day trips and other fishing-related activities.

renovations. In the back, there might be a few aquariums and Cacciola may host a series of marine-related classes or discussions; Prieto mentioned Cacciola has quite a bit of experience in this area. Visitors will also be able to purchase sundries such as sunscreen, T-shirts, some tackle products, and other “touristy” products.

The Pfleger Institute of Environment Research (PIER) will operate upstairs.

PIER generally studies and researches the fish, but for the purposes of the SEA Center will concentrate on some of the fishable creatures such bluefin tuna, calico bass, halibut and yellowtail. PIER joined forces with Cacciola and Prieto to research and provide data to ensure less than 1 percent of the fish will be harvested, protecting the interest of consumption. Genetic studies will also be done on the fish in the area to see if any mutations are caused by the surrounding environment.

A restroom will also be placed upstairs. Currently, the building has been without water for 10 years. At one point it was turned off by the previous tenant, causing the pipes to corrode and costly repairs were needed in order to get the restrooms up and running again.

The renovations do not stop indoors, either. New concrete floats may be

installed to house marine life and storage, and a wet station with sinks and running sea water to view specimens may also be added. These stations will be completely self-sufficient and will offer a hands-on experience, perhaps a touch tank.

Four boats are currently owned by Oceanside SEA Center. One of their newer boats, Southern Cal, is in need of renovation, but will likely be used for half-day trips on the sea and whale watching.

Prieto is also planning on a new color scheme for the building. He envisions a brick red façade with canvas trim. City officials, of course, would have to approve of any color scheme.

While the renovations seem to be going well, there has been a lot of recent controversy and challenges that came from the SEA Center being built.

Prieto would like to clear up any rumors about what has been going on with the new Oceanside Sea Center.

“I think there are a lot of misconceptions about what we are doing here,” Prieto said.

By partnering with PIER Institute, he hopes fishermen and scientists can come together for both parties to enjoy the ocean. One thing Oceanside SEA Center is not: an attempt to shut down fishing activity in the name of scientific

research.

Prieto added he hopes fishermen would take tourists out on jaunts and educate them on local fish and marine life. “By being involved with what we have here, they will be able to learn,” Prieto said. “It will be more than just someone who takes you out to harvest fish.”

A trend apparently opening up for fishing and marine-related attractions, and one that Prieto has already enabled, is the use of online resources to book reservations. Chubasco was the first sportsfishing boat with online booking, a practice expected to continue at Oceanside SEA Center.

“A lot of our market is going that way [online],” Prieto said. “There is a trend in tourism and experience-based products, too” In the interest of the Oceanside community, Prieto and Cacciola went to community meetings and hope to keep the center in the spirit of what previously existed, to an extent.

“We’re going to keep it in the spirit of the harbor. I believe in local business.

Capt. Joe has been a resident here for 40+ years,” Prieto told The Log. “We’re not big business. We’re mom and pop.

We don’t have some big conglomerate behind us. It’s just me, my wife, and Capt. Joe.” It has been a long road to get the Oceanside SEA Center to where it is now, but in May, Oceanside SEA Center is on schedule to be completely renovated, with indoor plumbing and a plethora of other attractions for guests.

At the end of the day, Prieto hopes this new center will be a place where all people, scientists and fishermen alike, will be able to come together despite their sometimes differing.

“I envision this as a meeting place,” Prieto told The Log. From the number of attractions available, it appears there will be many opportunities to experience the marine life, no matter what your interests.

Oceanside SEA Center is located at 315 Harbor Drive South. To find out more information, visit their website at oceansideseacenter.com. Learn more about PIER at pier.org.

Inventor of the electric Duffy boat addresses his plans to improve the Newport Beach Harbor as city’s new mayor.

By Devon Warren

NEWPORT BEACH — In the efforts to track down Marshall “Duffy” Duffield, the new mayor of Newport Beach, it seemed quite ominous his reply to an email correspondence about scheduling an interview stated, “I’m around,” with his phone number attached.

The Duffy name is certainly “around” in many corners of Newport Beach Harbor, as it’s literally everywhere you turn – in the form of a “Duffy” electric boat.

As a long-time Newport Beach resident (more than 50 years) and the inventor of the electric boat bearing his name, many of us would consider Duffield the quintessential image of the dreamy Southern California yachting life.

A car insurance agent once told me we pay such catastrophic prices because “it’s a privilege to live” in Southern California. In a lot of ways, Duffield has taken such privilege and created an empire from it – him, and most other residents of California’s coast, live in a Technicolor world of scenic beauty that others across the country may never see in their lifetimes.

And Duffield remembers the earlier years of his life in Newport Beach fondly.

“Summers as a kid in the late 50s and early 60s was special,” Duffield told The Log in an email. “Growing up on the bay front with my 14-foot dory with a 5.5 Evenrude outboard and racing my sabot was the best. I had a lot of great times waterskiing in the Back Bay too – wish that place was still open!”

Duffy is synonymous with Newport Beach. While we might think of the man who met John Wayne as a child and has been a mainstay in the boating world for decades, he’s also the man who is busy visiting his factory out in San Bernardino County the week leading up to Christmas and who has a hefty agenda to carry out that he’s already been planning and working toward.

“As a conservative I struggle with big government,” Duffield told The Log. “I’m all about doing it for less money, [with] fewer people and doing it quickly.

Not everyone agrees with me on this but here’s an example. A week ago we opened a new dinghy dock next to Lido Village. It was sorely needed and is very nice, but it cost way too much money and took much too long to implement – crazy. I want to put expert experienced boaters in charge of running the harbor so we can do things at a reasonable cost and do it in a logical way.”

A mover and shaker, Duffield is a believer things shouldn’t be stalled. He feels one of the hardest parts of being a government official is working at the slower pace to get things done.

“I’m afraid I’ll run out of time to accomplish my goals, because everything works so slowly in government,” Duffield said. “I’m not sure anything prepares you for this job, but my angle is simple: I’m going to just be Duffy. I plan on asking staff and the council for their advice. The council and city staff is full of high-quality, qualified people each with their own area of expertise and I want to use this resource to get through my year.”

However, Duffield still has a few initiatives mapped out.

“The Harbor Commission and the council will re-work Title 17 that spells out how the bay is run and managed. At the same time I’ll be leaning on our finance committee to find the funds for phase two of our new Harbor Operations,” Duffield said. “My goals for the harbor are to improve water quality by increasing circulation. Keeping the harbor dredged beyond the standard design depths and allowing the ocean to flow in from more than one place would be fantastic.

“We can accomplish this with smart and proven technologies. As I mentioned before we will operate and manage the harbor more efficiently,” Duffield continued.

In the past, the idea of replacing moorings in the harbor with “Duffy Docks” was tossed around and it seems like it could still be a possibility in the future.

“Multiple boat moorings are in use today with Harbor 20’s,” Duffy said. “It’s hard to justify one little 20-foot boat using a mooring where you could have stored several, so we came up with a way to make it happen. It has worked very well for more than a decade. I can’t see why we wouldn’t expand on this concept.”

One of the early wins for Duffield may be addressing the aging sea walls at Balboa.

“I am so happy that we are finally addressing this issue with a practical and affordable fix,” Duffield said. “Again, government works in mysterious ways but in this case we are going to provide a solid answer to a very important problem. We’ve identified the parts that are severely in need of attention and are addressing them.

“We are increasing the height of the seawall that faces the storm surge and heavy winds with a cement cap averaging about 9 inches tall beginning soon,” Duffield continued.

Duffield also mentioned the possibility of opening up a second public anchorage.

“We brought [a second public anchorage] to the attention of the public at a Harbor Commission meeting many years ago,” Duffield stated. “The upper turning basin had boats on moorings in the 40s and 50s, so this is nothing new. A large amount of commercial operations are inches away from this basin. Public access is now available for local and visiting yachtsman on shore. The turning basin east of Lido Island is extremely congested on weekends and during the

summer. Having two mooring fields will help create more open space on the bay.”

He also believes liveaboards can make positive contributions to the boating community.

“Liveaboards are great for the mooring fields,” Duffield said. “They keep theft down and are good ambassadors of the bay. It’s a hard life out there when you do it legally. That’s what needs to change. We must enforce the liveaboard rules.”

Of all the things he accomplished, what he’s still most proud of is keeping Duffy boats a household name in the boating industry for nearly 50 years.

“I’d have to say after thinking about

it for a while that I’m proud to have kept a boat company in business for almost 50 years.” Duffield told The Log. “It doesn’t take a genius, but it does take perseverance and passion. We went through three major recessions, which takes its toll on boat builders. Selling something that nobody really needs and has limited use for is challenging to say the least. Our customers love the Duffy boating lifestyle and I’m proud to be a part of their good times on the water.”

A purveyor of the boating communities of Newport Beach’s Harbor, Duffield has much planned to improve one of the city’s greatest assets.

Catalina Connection Catalina’s Glenmore Plaza Hotel and the Hotel Boom of 1891 AVALON — Avalon, now a flourishing and luxurious vacation destination, has a competitive hotel market with a resort option for almost everyone, whether you’re looking for history, spa lodgings, or something with a bit of nightlife. With the many options guests have to visit hotels, it is hard to imagine a time when hotels were nonexistent and the most common way of staying on the island during the late 1800s was by tent.

For about $7.50 a week, which translates roughly to around $187 today, guests could stay in a tent that provided beds, bedding, basic furnishings and limited cooking facilities.

During the summer around 80 to 100 tents would be rented and that number continued to climb into the next century.

By the late 1800s, the Victorians of the time were clamoring to travel to exotic and adventurous destinations, making Catalina Island a thriving vacation spot as early as 1891. As time went on, Catalina Island looked to expand

its visitation and to provide lodging that fit all visitor’s means, from those who had a tighter pocket book to those who wanted a more extravagant and pricier excursion. This resulted in Catalina’s Hotel Boom where multiple hotels began popping up creating competition between vendors on the island.

Constructed by the same crew that built the Hotel del Coronado in San Diego, Glenmore Plaza Hotel was built in 1891. It still stands on Summer Avenue, its original location. Over the years Glenmore Plaza Hotel has seen the likes of celebrities such as Charlie Chaplin, Clark Gable and Amelia Earhart stay there and it has even been

rumored the hotel is haunted — if you believe in that kind of thing.

In any event, Glenmore Plaza Hotel now holds bragging rights as the second oldest hotel built in California that is still operating and guests are welcome to book a stay to this day.

This article references “The California Channel Islands” by Marla Daily and “Catalina Island” by Jeannine L. Pederson.

A STEM Education Initiative spearheaded by U.S. Sailing benefi ted about 224,000 youth in 2017, according to a published report. The Reach Initiative could be expanding its presence in Southern California, thanks to the program’s success in cities such as Dana Point, Long Beach and San Diego.

U.S. Sailing’s Reach Initiative could expand SoCal presence Programs in San Diego, Dana Point and Long Beach use sailing to ramp up STEM education.

By Parimal M. Rohit

NATIONWIDE — An estimated 224,000 youth benefitted from U.S. Sailing’s STEM Education Initiative in 2017, according to a report published by the organization. The initiative reportedly reached more than 400 programs and U.S. Sailing Events, including Mission

Bay Aquatic Center, Long Beach Sailing Foundation and Dana Point’s Westwind Sailing.

U.S. Sailing released the “2017 Impact Report” to reveal how the Reach Initiative engaged youth, enhanced careers in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics, and fostered environmental stewardship through hands-on learning.

About 88 percent of students gained additional sailing skills through the initiative, according to the impact report. Roughly 93 percent of participating students believe “they will do well in high school classes similar to those subjects in the Reach program,” according to the report.

The initiative’s presence in Southern California could be expanded in 2018, the impact report stated. Mission Bay Aquatic Center was identified as an “Emerging STEM Center of Excellence.”

As many as 2,379 Southern California students were reached and six new partnerships created by the initiative in 2017.

One of the initiative’s partners - Extreme Sailing Series - reached

300 youths in San Diego as part of its Scavenger Hunt & Navigation event. Other partner events included America’s Cup in Bermuda (1,935 students and 3,000 youths reached) and Tall Ships America events in Boston and Charleston, South Carolina (1,500 youth).

Other organizations participating in the U.S. Sailing Reach Initiative included Baltimore County Sailing Center, Beverly Yacht Club, Community Boating Centers in Rhode Island, Massachusetts and Vermont, Greater Richmond Sailing Association, Hudson River Community Sailing, Kauai Sailing Association, Park City Sailing, Sarasota Youth Sailing and Wayzata Community Sailing Center.

The Reach Initiative was launched in 2012 as part of a plan to engage sailing programs around the country.

Nearly 90 percent of students participating in the Reach Initiative are firsttime sailors, according to U.S. Sailing.

More than 100,000 students participate in Reach annually, with about half of participants considered at-risk youths.

Stardust was hauled out of the water during the first few days into 2018, but not before anglers aboard its final trip of 2017 yielded a good mix of lingcod, reds and rockfish. The Dec. 31, 2017 three-quarterday run to finish the season brought home 213 reds, 117 rockfish and 53 lings. Coral Sea, meanwhile, had 180 rockfish, 52 lings and 17 whitefish on its final fishing expedition of 2017.

NOAA Fisheries implements new regulations for illegal fishing activities

NATIONWIDE — The United States hopes 2018 will be the year it continues cracking down on seafood fraud, as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) began requiring new recordkeeping requirements for imported fish.

Seafood traders must fill out additional documentation to any fish products they intend to sell to consumers within the United States, according to a NOAA Fisheries policy officially in effect. The new regulation – known as SIMP, or Seafood Import Monitoring Program – went into effect Jan. 1. Officials believe the new documentation process will ensure seafood imported into the United States is sustainable and legally caught.

Fish species targeted under the new regulation include Pacific cod, mahi mahi, grouper, king crab, sea cucumbers, sharks, swordfish and tunas.

Clock begins on rulemaking for 2019-20 sportfishing season Fish and Game Commission will likely deliberate upcoming season at August meetings.

By Parimal M. Rohit

SACRAMENTO — A rulemaking session for California’s final sportfishing season of the decade is finally underway.

The state’s Fish and Game Commission started the clock on the rulemaking process for the 2019-20 sporfishing season, with key issues discussed by members of the commission’s Wildlife Resources Committee.

Committee members met Jan. 11 in Santa Rosa and provided the public

an opportunity to discuss the potential regulation of the upcoming sportfishing season.

Staff with the Department of Fish and Wildlife will review the discussion points brought up during the Jan. 11 committee meeting; committee members are expected to again discuss potential regulatory issues at a May 17 meeting in Los Alamitos.

A formal hearing on any proposed regulations would be held in front of the full Fish and Game Commission, Aug. 22-23 in Fortuna.

The state regularly updates its sportfishing season regulations through the Fish and Game Commission.

Two commissioners co-chair the Wildlife Resources Committee: Anthony Williams and Russell Burns.

consists of 14 federal agency members; NOAA and the State Department cochair the committee.

NOAA’s law enforcement attempts reportedly resulted in a California couple being fined $1.5 million for illegally smuggling harp seal oil into the United States. An unnamed company was reportedly fined $25,000 after a NOAA investigation found it branded Russian-caught codfish as Icelandic cod fillets.

A NOAA Fisheries biennial report presented to Congress in 2017 stated three countries – Mexico, Russia and Ecuador – had vessels engaged in IUU fishing activities.

“Mexico received a negative certification for unauthorized fishing in U.S. waters and overfishing of stocks shared by the United States, which have adverse impacts on such stocks, including red snapper,” the 2017 biennial report stated. “It is now subject to denial of port privileges and import restrictions on certain fish and fish products. NOAA Fisheries will continue to work with Mexico to encourage appropriate corrective action.”

The United States imports more than 90 percent of its seafood, according to NOAA Fisheries.

Powering for Trout ESCONDIDO — Don Stephensen of Temecula made a short trek to Escondido to fish for trout at Dixon Lake, where he is a record holder.

Once there he was able to nab a 4.5-pound rainbow trout from trout cove using a power worm. Stephensen set a new lake record recently with a 16.82-pound Tailwaker rainbow trout (using a 4-pound test). He reportedly battled the fish for 20 minutes before finally bringing it to shore. The record, however, was short-lived, as another angler (Steve Capps) reportedly edged Stephensen’s record before the end of the year. Dixon Lake, when all was said and done, was home to three trout catches of 16-plus pounds.

Abalone and shrimp could be added in future regulations.

NOAA Fisheries staff called the Seafood Import Monitoring Program “a significant step in the global effort to prevent Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated (IUU) fishing and seafood fraud from entering U.S. markets.”

The Seafood Import Monitoring Program went into effect Jan. 1. U.S ports, as part of an effort to combat illegal fishing, now require strict documentation “IUU fishfrom companies importing seafood into the country. ing and seafood fraud threaten valuable natural resources that are critical to global food tional treaties.

San Diego Report

Bluefin and yellowtail bites continue ahead into 2018 SAN DIEGO — New Year’s Day has come and gone and in it’s wake is a lot of good fishing to talk about, with bluefin tuna and yellowtail highlighting recent catches and with some striped marlin activity to report on as well. The 2018 fishing season did not take long to develop and was off and running on New Year’s Day. Bluefin tuna continued to bite at the 60 Mile Bank through the end of 2017 and continued to produce action for about a week into 2018, but a Jan. 6 fishing trip returned with 20 yellowtails and zero bluefin tuna. With so few boats out fishing in January it is yet to be determined if there are still bluefin around and biting at the 60 Mile Bank.

Private boater Alan Baron of Drambuie reported about fishing a two-day trip to the 60 Mile Bank aboard Provider out of Newport Beach on Dec. 31, 2017 and Jan. 1. Baron’s reported two anglers aboard the trip caught their limits of four bluefin tuna while fishing with slow trolled live sardines.

The slow trolled sardines technique did not work for them the following day, however. They tried other methods and eventually found success and caught three bluefin tuna, which was one fish short of their limits for the second day of fishing. Two of the three bluefin were caught on yo-yoed Flat Fall jigs and the third bluefin was caught on a live squid.

The best bet for the bluefin tuna at the 60 Mile Bank has been fishing at the upper high spot. If you find a kelp paddie in the region of the 60 Mile Bank, Butterfly Bank or 302 Spot there

is also a chance at getting into a good yellowtail bite on what have mostly been the 6- to 10-pound fish.

Bluefin at the 60 Mile Bank have been in the 12- to 35-pound range and biting best on sardines. In addition to sardines, Flat Fall jigs and live squid have also producing a few bluefin. Most of the bluefin have been caught while sitting on the anchor, while drifting or while slow trolling with live sardines.

Most anglers are using live bait outfits with fluorocarbon leaders in the 20- to 25-pound range. Using small hooks relative to the size of the live bait has also been helpful in getting the bluefin to bite.

The New Year has seen another bluefin bite area develop for boats fishing offshore waters below and outside of Punta Colnett. This action has been found while fishing areas such as the Squiggles and the Boot between 110 and 120+ miles below Point Loma.

Boats fishing 1.5-day trips at the more coastal oriented areas around the high spot off Punta Colnett have been catching a mix of yellowtail, bonito, reds and assorted rockfish. It has been hit or miss on getting into a good yellowtail bite but the fishing for bonito and for quality-sized rockfish and reds has been consistent. When yellowtails are located they have been quality fish that average around 20 pounds.

Striped marlins are also in the offshore fishing picture to start the year. A report from Capt. Maurice Smith of Dos Hermanos is Mark Henwood and Skete Simmons of Concubine went out to

try deep dropping for swordfish at the 289 Spot and found twosleeper marlin inside of the Ridge while on a course from Point Loma to the 289 Spot. All they had with them in the way of bait were some large dead squid they had rigged for swordfish. They dragged the squid by the marlin sleepers but the marlin were not interested. Smith said there was a lot of life in the area with anchovies and birds and that the water temperature was at 62.5 degrees.

What has also been unseasonably good is the fishing for yellowtail off Point Loma and Imperial Beach. Good numbers of yellowtail continue to bite in an area ranging from 1.5 miles south of the Whistler Buoy on down to the International Reef that is located a short way above the Mexico Border. The yellows have been holding in this region for weeks and the past few days of fishing has seen them biting very well.

Some sportboat counts for Sunday, January 7, 2018 start with Daily Double out of Point Loma Sportfishing; its morning half-day trip returned with 11 anglers catching 51 yellowtails.

New Seaforth out of Seaforth Sportfishing had a morning half-day trip with 36 anglers catch 70 yellowtails. On the afternoon trip they had 47 anglers catch 235 yellowtails and one sand bass. Premier out of H&M Landing had a morning half-day trip with 33 anglers catch 82 yellowtails and one sand bass. On the afternoon trip, 20 anglers caught 69 yellowtails.

Fisherman’s Landing had a morning half-day trip on Dolphin with 69

(Clockwise from bottom left) Rains doused Southern California’s anglers during the second week of the year, but that didn’t stop Chief from heading out to sea on Jan. 7. The 1.5-day trip along the Baja California coast returned to shore with catches of bluefin tuna, rockfish and lingcod.

The New Year was off to a great start for anglers aboard Spitfire, who returned to shore with a mix of triggerfish, bass and sculpin. Meanwhile the long-range fishing excursion aboard Red Rooster III appears to be yielding a satisfying amount of bluefin tuna. Tuna was also a popular catch aboard Tribute’s first few fishing trips of 2018.

Chief, Spitfire, Red Rooster III, Tribute photos

anglers catch 107 yellowtails. On the afternoon trip, 33 anglers caught 121 yellowtails.

The yellowtail have been mostly 6- to 10-pound fish, which have been biting from finding trolling strikes on Rapalas, meter marks, sonar marks, spots of working birds and strikes on slow trolled mackerel and slow trolled sardines. One located, the yellows have been biting on sardines, mackerel, yo-yo iron and surface iron.

Anglers need to keep in mind the annual two-month rockfish closure in Southern California waters went into effect on Jan. 1. Anglers need to fish for rockfish and groundfish in Mexican waters until the end of the closure on March 1.

I hope you get a chance to get out on the water and enjoy some of the fine January fishing. With species to target that include bluefin tuna, striped marlin, yellowtail, bonito, calico bass, sand bass, sculpin, halibut, striped bass and rockfish there is something that is likely to perk the interest of most any angler. Keep on fishing and I hope to see you out on the water!

NOAA to award $2.5 million in grants as part of bycatch reduction initiative Funding program aims to minimize loss of non-targeted species and harm to corals.

By Parimal M. Rohit

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is seeking proposals for its Bycatch Reduction Engineering Program, an initiative promoting fishing operations from ensuring non-targeted species aren’t included in their respective catches.

Federal officials specifically state the program supports the development of technological solutions and fishing practice changes “designed to minimize bycatch of fish.”

Marine life directly affected by bycatch includes deep-sea corals, marine mammals, seabirds, sea turtles, sponges and sturgeons.

A total of $2.5 million will be available to applicants, with specific awards ranging from $50,000 to $250,000 each.

Grants would likely be awarded to applicants who device techniques to

reduce interactions between fishing gears and corals or sponges, perform research to inform commercial and recreational fisheries of conservation engineering, improve the understanding and reduction of post-release and mortality events, and enhance fishing practices through gear modifications or avoidance programs.

NOAA began awarding grants through the Bycatch Reduction Engineering Program about 10 years ago, with 102 projects funded along the way. Between 13 and 18 projects were funded each year.

Pre-proposals are due Jan. 31; full proposals must be submitted by March 30.

Last year’s grant recipients included Pfleger Institute of Environmental Research (PIER) and Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission. PIER was awarded grant funds to develop radio and satellite smart buoy technologies to help reduce bycatch. The Pacific States Marine Fisheries, meanwhile, used NOAA funds, in part, to reduce eulachon and dark blotched rockfish bycatch in the ocean shrimp trawl fishery.

SALTWATER OCEAN FISHING REPORT

By Terrence Berg 976-TUNA.com BLUEFIN ACTION CONTINUES: While few boats have made the run out to the offshore tuna banks during the past week, those making the run are still finding excellent, often limit-style action on the bluefin. These are not the huge bluefin of earlier in the season, but they are solid 25- to 35-pound fish for the most part. There is also usually a pretty good bite on yellowtail when the bluefin aren’t cooperating (or everyone had their two-fish limit).

The most recent trip was the Jan. 2 run by Chief out of H&M Landing. The 24 anglers on that overnight trip caught 48 bluefin tuna and 16 yellowtails.

On Sunday, Oceanside 95 out of Helgren’s Sportfishing had 21 anglers on its 1.5-day trip and landed 34 bluefin and eight yellowtails.

These fish usually bite best on the backside of the new moon, so this week could see hot action.

SAN DIEGO YELLOWTAIL: With the closure of rockfish season in California waters, the San Diego half-day fleet has mostly been focusing on yellowtail and sculpin, and the morning yellowtail bite has been very good this week.

Sea Watch out of Seaforth Sportfishing has been pounding the yellowtail on its morning half-day trips this whole week. On Jan. 3, 38 anglers had 43 yellowtail and 12 keeper calicos.

On the Jan. 2 morning trip, there were 49 anglers who landed 91 yellowtails and one halibut,

while the Jan. 1 trip with 19 anglers produced 51 yellowtails.

Dolphin out of Fisherman’s Landing had 18 anglers on its Jan. 2 afternoon half-day and caught 37 sand bass, 25 sculpin, and 10 calicos.

The morning trip with 58 anglers produced 115 yellowtails.

Daily Double out of Point Loma Sportfishing had just three anglers on its Jan. 3 half-day trip this week, but they landed three yellowtails, seven sand bass, six calico bass, three bonito, and one sculpin.

Josie Lynn out of Point Loma Sportfishing had six anglers on its Dec. 29, 2017 overnight trip and landed full-limits of 60 yellowtails.

MEXICAN ROCKFISH: The rockfish season, which closed all along the Southern California coast on Monday, is still open in Mexican waters.

Premier out of H&M Landing has been running half-day trips into Mexican water (you will need a passport for these trips) for rockfish since the California season closed Jan. 1, and the action has been very good. On an. 3, 23 anglers landed 115 red snapper, 110 assorted rockfish, and five lingcod. The Jan. 1 trip with 23 anglers produced 227 rockfish, two lings, and one sheephead.

SCULPIN TIME: With the closure of rockfish season, most of the sportboats running out of Los Angeles and Orange County landings have been focusing on sculpin and sand bass, and with good success. The scores really tell the story.

New Del Mar out of Marina del Rey Sportfishing had 34 anglers on its Jan. 3 half-day, and caught 170 sculpin, 15 sand bass, one calico bass, and one bonus halibut. Spitfire, also Marina del Rey, had 19 anglers on its three-quarter-day

trip and landed 95 sculpin, 32 keeper sand bass, eight calicos, and seven triggerfish.

Freelance out of Davey’s Locker had 69 anglers on its Jan. 3 three-quarter-day trip and landed 102 sculpin, 40 perch, and three sand bass. The Jan. 2 trip with 61 anglers returned with 155 sculpin and 51 perch.

Monte Carlo out of 22nd Street Landing had 24 anglers on its Jan. 3 morning half-day, and caught 41 sculpin and 19 sand bass. The Jan. 2 trip with 11 anglers produced 25 sculpin, 15 perch, and nine sand bass.

VENTURA-SANTA BARBARA UPDATE: The last day of rockfish season was Sunday, and the action was excellent right up until the closure for boats running out of Ventura and Santa Barbara area landings. Most boats will be laying off and doing maintenance until March 1st opener.

At Channel Islands Sportfishing in Oxnard, no boats have been out since Dec. 31, 2017, but the final week was excellent. Mirage finished the season with an overnight trip returning Dec. 31, 2017, and the 24 anglers on board had 240 rockfish, 48 lingcod, and 48 whitefish.

At Hook’s Landing in Oxnard, the final rockfish trip was a three-quarter-day jaunt aboard New Hustler, and the 35 anglers on board had 310 rockfish, 120 whitefish, and 32 sheephead.

At Ventura Sportfishing, Island Spirit had 23 anglers on its full-day Dec. 31, 2017 trip and landed limits of 230 rockfish, 120 whitefish, 38 sheephead, 11 lingcod, and one Cabazon.

At Sea Landing in Santa Barbara, both Coral Sea and Stardust ran three-quarter-day trips on the final day of rockfish season. Coral Sea had 26 anglers who landed 180 rockfish, 52 lingcod, and 17 whitefish. Meanwhile, the 39 anglers on

Stardust landed 213 red snapper, 117 rockfish, and 53 lingcod.

AVILA BEACH-MORRO BAY NEWS: The rockfish season closed on this section of the coast on Sunday, but the bite was excellent right up to the end. In the local surf, the barred surfperch bite remains consistent on better quality fish up to three pounds, mostly on live lugworms or bloodworms. The Rapala Shadow Rap jigs also are a good bet.

At Virg’s Landing in Morro Bay, Fiesta ran the final rockfish trip of the season on Dec. 31, 2017 and the 23 anglers on board had 170 red snapper, 60 assorted other rockfish, and 46 lings.
