Pillar Point 5/12

Had to go to the west side for training, so I carted my Hobie over and managed to sneak out for a morning fish on Friday. I was hoping to get into a few lingcod, I did - but no keepers. Caught 3 shorts. Caught a really nice black rock and 15+ greenling. Kept the black and 6 of the greenling, I think they are quite tasty and will make delicious fish tacos. All fish were caught just off the kelp beds, west of the launch. It was a great morning on the water, and it was nice to get out on the salt.
This is my first time posting a report, bear with me....  I will try and post a few pics.

I can only post one pict a time....

Nice morning...

Nice work!
Was that a pretty easy launch? I always drive right past that place on my way to Neah Bay.

It was a really long drag with the kayak.

Sounds like I'll continue to drive right past it then

Nice fish! Looks like good eating!

Did you launch at the recreation area?

Looks like a fun trip and really nice water.

I love fishing pillar point. I do most of my halibut fishing there. The trick is to launch approximately 2 hours before high tide, and come in 2 hours after high. There are some monster lings hiding off there in the depths too.

Nice post - super morning to be out on the water. I came close to swimming when a gray whale crested near me off of that beach a couple years back.
