His infrequently used blog,, is a collection of fishing tidbits, self-promotion, and unusual musings on the state of the world. He is distractible, and in his unbridled enthusiasm sometimes interrupts his own outlandish anecdotes.
He’s an athletic man, whose signature black-framed glasses have appeared on numerous magazine and newspaper covers. Lombard, a former wildlife inspector for the California Department of Fish and Wildlife who now runs a commercial fishing business and leads undeniably strange coastal walking tours, is by nature a dramatic character. He never saw his muse again, but over the next 18 years Lombard would achieve semi-fame as the “Sea Forager,” known to restaurants and the press as the poke-poling hunter of the monkeyface eel.
#WOLF EEL EATING PATCH#
The next day Lombard found a patch of bamboo growing near the San Francisco airport and chopped down a few poles. Shortly afterward Stan pulled out a cabezon – a large-headed sculpin – and that, Lombard says, is the moment he decided to abandon his rod and reel.
Stan showed Lombard the metal hook at the end of the bamboo pole where he had skewered his bait, and plunged it into a water-filled cavity at the base of Squack Rock. “This” - he gestured at the 4-foot-long bamboo pole and out to the rocks below his feet - “is called poke poling.” Intrigued, he climbed down from Squack Rock to ask the man who he was and what he was up to. EThe man slid the stick between the cracks of the rocks, somehow hooking half a dozen fish in a matter of minutes. So we are going to submit the pics and see if the newspaper and a marine salt water fish biologist can tell us what this thing is! After talking with local town people they say this is really a good eating fish. When we got home we googled Wolf Fish and come to find out there are both Wolf fish and Wolf eel. I was like just cut the line and let it go. Until now I thought Ling Cod were the most prehistoric, ugliest looking fish ever! But take a look at what we caught! We both said the best way to describe this thing was with two words: EVIL looking!!Īnd YES we did release it! We tried to get the hook out of his mouth without injuring it to release him in the water…but was unable to do that, so we had to bring “the creature” in the boat to unhook IT! I was afraid it would electrocute Ray…I mean it looks like an eel!! Ray didn’t know what it was! I jumped into the cabin of the boat it scared me so much and let Ray worry about getting the hook out of it’s mouth. I will never forget dragging this thing, this creature up from the sea. Now for the un-nerving part! If you have the stomach……look at what we drug up from the bottom, something that was really scary looking! What an interesting exciting day we had. We fished a few hours in the Seldovia area of Kachemak Bay for salmon and didn’t get a bite so decided we would go find some halibut. Life in Alaska can be very un-nerving! I had thought I had seen everything pretty much from the ocean! Ray and I went out to try and find some salmon but instead we found something called a Wolf Fish vs Wolf Eel.
