OUTDOORS DATELINE Happy Anglers Beating Winds By JIM FREEMAR WHEN ANGLERS can beat the winds they are scoring with easy limits of salmon in waters north of the Golden Gate The trick is to beat the winds to the fishing grounds. By fishing very early in the mornings most boats have managed to come in with limits ihis week. The same problem of beating the winds is the curse fcr sturgeon fishermen in San Pablo and Suisun Bay waters. There is a sprinkling of stripers on hand in the lower bays but nothing to get excited about yet. Perch and flounder are keeping the bank and skiff fishermen busy.

Salmon Excellent Outside 'Gate "Salmon fishing has to be rated excellent this week whenever the parlyboat fleet ean get out the Gate and work the fishing grounds properly," says Rich Urbais at Sausalito Bait and Tackle. "The boats that head out early have the best chance. The offshore winds of this last week haven't been coming up until mid-morning." The top spots were scattered from Double Point and Slide Ranch to Duxbury Bouy and skippers reprot that there are still literally miles of salmon on hand. The schools of kings and mixed silvers are mostly smaller fish running under 10 pounds but a few decent kings up to 24 pounds have been reported this week. Skippers say that very few shakers are being taken.

The same story of beat the wind and score holds for Monterey Bay fishermen. Chris Arcoleo says that salmon are scattered all over the hay and anglers can even take fair sized fish of 8 to 10 pounds in the shadow of the pier. Most of the partyboats are heading north from the breakwater where they troll for salmon right near the surface and then head for the offshore rocky aeas lor votlomfishing. The take for cod fishermen is mostly yellows and blues right now with very ew lings in the sacks. Sturgeon Fair In San Pablo Bay Skipper Mike O'Connell called to say that sturgeon fishing is still running at a fair pace in San Pablo Bay waters.

Mike has been fishing near the San Rafael-Richmond Bridge and the take has been holding at about a half a lumpback to the rod. The sturgeon are going fairly small, he says, and few of them are over the 50 pound mark. Sturgeon to 125 pounds were checked in this week at Oowrelio Harbor but Nadine Lessley says that the average sturgeon in this area from either the northern part of San Pablo Bay or from Suisun Bays will go around the 40 to 50 pound mark. Grass shrimp is still the top fodder for sturgeons. A scattering of stripers is on hand in these same waters.

Bullhead specialists are scoring on stripers to ober 30 pounds bul the take isn't heaby yet. You've got to know the spots and the right techniques to score when the fishing is running at the present low level. However, when a bullhead fisherman finally scores he usually hauls in a nice lineside. Few fish of under 15 pounds have eben taken by bullheaders this week. Catfish Action hi Delhi The Delta hss been dea'dsville for everything but catfish.

A smidgeon of action took place this week as the water receded in the Sacramento River. Bank and skiff fishermen took stripers to 17 pounds at the Brickyard near Sacramento and a few stripers were checked in from the Sacramento River near Rio Vista. Ocpl. of FG netting crews say that the area is loaded with stripers but the fish are reluctant to hit in the chilly, dirty water. Founder and perch are keeping things hopping in San Francisco Bay for bank, pier and rock fishermen.

Along the frontage roads anglers using the imported eastern blood- worms for bait are scoring on flounder. The red tail, silvers and yellowtail perch prefer rigged grass shimv or pile worms. Best scores seem to be coming from Berkeley Pier and from the inside and outside of Brooks Island on the high tides. At Brooks Island there has even been a show of rubber lips perch this week. Inverness anglers arc trolling up some nice limits of stripers lishing off the channel markers just off the Inverness shore, according to Bill Thompson at Inverness.

Bill says that only the locals seem to be interested in this fishing and that most of the visiting anglers are going for the heavy runs of perch in the surf and from the park beaches near Point Reyes. The perch runs were good enough so that even Bill madethe scene this week to load a sack. These sea run perch are a toothsome delicacy.

California Pago 15 Ohlone Thinclads In Triangular CC Debut At Aptos APTOS Ohlone College thinclads open their Coast Conference season today in a triangular meet against Cabrillo and Menlo colleges here starting at 3 p.m. Renegades' new coach Bob Sletten has only 13 men available for action bul help is shortly. "Once the new quarter starts, we hope to get the squad to about 20 players but right now we just have to make the best with what we have," said Sletten.

In the sprints the Renegades have Dennis Chittle, who has a 9.9 century to his credit, and Chris Carver who is expected to run both the 100 and 220. Mike George is being counted on to lend help once the new' quarter starts. Distance runners Oscar Rodriguez and Al Hilberg imile and two milei are over from the Renegades second place Coast Conference cross country team, and Sletten feels both will add greatly to his track team. Former Mission San Jose sprinter Wayne Hill will run the 440, while Fred Gardinier and Al Francis handle the high and intermediate hurdles. Bob Arnold and Charlie Collier will throw the shot put and discus with veteran Fred Garcia at the triple jump.

Sletten felt his pole vaulter Doug While, who went 12-8 in high school, is the type who can't help but improve and expects him to go much higher VOLLEYBALL ACTION: ACWD, Atomics Share NRD Top NEWARK-In Newark Recreation Department volleyball ac- gene Wong and Jerry ilennings lion, ACWD downed the Newark 0-2.
