    Here's a picture I forgot yesterday (sorry Joe). Joe Downing caught a limit yesterday with the largest going 22 pounds as I recall. Joe nailed another limit today but wasn't as interested in getting his picture taken with them. What kind of a season is it when people are disappointed with regular-sized limits? In a couple of hours? Joe was working the Keyholes, I believe.

     David Gonzales caught this 27 pounder today on the troll at the Trees. The bite there was slower today (even for the Eddie Kim) but there were still some fish picked up in the area.


    Gage took David Rocha and Sid Bruhn out fishing today and they caught their limits, including these 23 and 25 pound fish. The top picture is the fish from today's trip and the fish from last evening's trip that Gage took with his girlfriend, Amanda. Gage wisely let Amanda's father catch larger fish than his daughter. Good thinking, boy. 

    Yesterday I get the message from Shrimp Boat that "fishing is hard". Today he takes it all back:"Shrimp boat eked out some limits today, whoo hoo! Ignore anything I said yesterday about fishing being soul crushingly difficult, fishing is easy and awesome." There you have it, folks. It's easy and awesome. Except when it's not.

It wasn't easy for us today. After picking up even more rockfish and a ling (our freezer is completely white, and it's not frost) we mooched then trolled (gasp) and came up with just a couple short bites. Now the fan is on for a week. We need some color in the cold box.
