There is nothing "nasty" about this thread except for what was posted by sirfishalot. From the very beginning, I said that I don't follow this board very often. However, you are quite wrong in insinuating that I am not very familiar with Jason and his crew. How many times do I have to state in this thread that I am a big fan of the Stardust and its crew???

Before you guys started to jump on this thread like sharks on a whale carcass, Swimbait and I had already come to a plausible conclusion for my original posting. I am now convinced that the website I've been following (sportfishingreport.com) has during numerous occasions in the past, taken the daily fish count for the Stardust (and other 1/2 day boats) and split it in half to creat an AM and PM session. If you want a recent example, look at yesterday's posting for the Speed Twin out of CISCO's in Oxnard.

Speed Twin 1/2 Day AM
32 anglers 19 Barracuda 33 Rockfish 4 Whitefish 12 Sculpin 2 Sheephead 4 Sole

Speed Twin 1/2 Day PM
32 anglers 19 Barracuda 34 Rockfish 4 Whitefish 12 Sculpin 2 Sheephead 5 Sole

Notice anything "fishy"?

My biggest mistake was not posting this obvious misreporting of information, but choosing which website to do so.
