We are still heading north enjoying the great weather here outside the ridge. There are lots of jumbo kelps with sigh of yellowtail on them. Most of the fish are small but we did drive by a couple of kelps with better size fish. It was too much to resist so we stopped on one kelp and threw a 7x at it, but didn't get any bites. We put the blinders back on and are on once again on course. Everybody is enjoying the sunshine and flat seas, hopefully it holds up another day or two. I'm including a couple of bonus pictures taken by Larry Brown of one of John Dixon's big fish, in the above photo and one of the stock grade fish that Richard muscled up in photo #1.

The satellites are messed up and communications are tough. We will do our best. Andy Cates...... Read More
