Spring is one of my favorite times of the year; the days start getting longer, the fishing season begins, and it’s a time where everyone starts fresh. The tradition of spring cleaning can be traced back thousands of years, to many different religions and cultures. Especially for those who live in colder climates, it's a time to clean out the dust bunnies and open up the windows. But even in Southern California, where we are lucky to have our windows open all year, it’s an inspiring time of year.

The spring rains have come, leaving in their wake clean fresh air and a blanket of green over the Southern California hillsides. This time of year gets me excited, not because of blooming flowers, but because of great fishing.

Spring makes me want to head out in search of White Sea Bass along our coast and local islands or down to Baja to find spawning fish starting another cycle of life.  The rejuvenating spring season seems to make us all feel a little younger, with more energy ready to fish all hours of the day.  This year running offshore to target Tuna and finishing up near shore to take a shot at the Yellowtail or Calicos is already an option.  In the next number of weeks I hope we see increased numbers of Barracuda and Sand Bass gather along the coast but until then the opportunity for an occasional Halibut and excellent Rock Fishing continues.   

Soon we will be in the heart of the season participating in the Let’s Talk Hookup East Cape tournaments, focusing our fishing offshore and spending time with younger family members while on their summer break.  It’s a great time of year and things look to be shaping up for another outstanding season.  Take advantage of this when you can, while it’s here.

Now that tax season is behind us, it is also a good time of year to think about getting your financial house in order. Are you saving enough for retirement? If not and you can afford to, fix it.  Are you maximizing the return on your investments?  If you’re not sure contact me and let me show you how to make improvements.  Is your strategy tax-efficient?  It should be. Take some time to organize your financial plans and do an annual review. Make any necessary updates and make sure you’re on track to spend more time on the water in the future.  Again “take advantage of this when you can, while its here.”  Why wait any longer to get on track?   

Whether you are diligently doing your spring cleaning, or carving out time to spend as much of your spring on the water, take advantage of the season and the sense of renewal that surrounds us.
