Hope i didn't forget anybody......This is gonna be fun. I'll try to remember to take more then one pic.

If by chance it is blown out anyone up for some Lake fishin? I've never fished Saunders and wouldn't mind trying there.

I have not been in the water in months. Any kind of fishing sounds good to me!!!! Good group of people headed out tomorrow. It will be fun!!! Hope I can make it.

 Yeah if the ocean is blown out I am up for Saunders.......but lets hope it does not come to that....I want to try for some crab tomorrow.

Hope you guys have a great time.  Take lots of photos.  Good Luck everybody.

Well, we didn't quite get as many people as expected. I think we ended up with 8 people. The swell was bigger then forecasted but it was doable, so we pedaddled out.

I finally got my first Oregon "Keeper" Cabezon, right at 16 inches. Caught some blacks, a couple greenling and an underling, no big lings.

Martin huli'd and lost two poles, no leashes, i bet next time i see him he will. The second pic is martin after the mishap. At least he still has a smile on his face.Luckily the poles were just cheap ones.

I think everyone caught something, with Dave catching the biggest fish, a Ling at 24 inches.

Cabezon = Yummy!!!!

Nice get-together there Roy!  Thanks for the update!

I don't think I have caught a Cabezon yet, good job Roy.  What a turn out.  If this keeps up, you are going to have to host a tournament this summer at Sunset. 

Another beautiful day at Sunset Bay. I ended up with 3 blacks and a ling, my first ever out of the kayak. Roys secret ling spot paid off!

The first pic is Merlin on the outside. The second is Roy with his catch of the day, and the third is Blue Trident catching bait.

Dave

 I only managed one fish, but it got me on the board so all in all it was a good day out. It was nice to finaly meet you Dave and I look forward to fishing with you again. Good job on the Ling.

Was a good day,lots of boats and swell went down,, to bad the wind came up.
  Good to see Martin smileing,, seems we all take our turn in the briney....

 On the saftey issue,, we should proably all  get on a common V channel  I have a old hand held icom, pertty heavy. Looking at a new one.   Royg
  One picture here,, didn't turn out very good though.

Nice work guys. Bluebird, calm seas and decent fishing. Nice!

Nice job, guys. I wish I was there!

Great pix!! And blue skies, haven't seen much of that up here in Puget Sound.
How are greenling for the frying pan---good tasting??

Nice Ling Dave, You got little brother... I didn't get to see it out there.

Good job gettin off the skunk, Jesse

Turns out that only Dale and Zac didn't make it. I never really saw Wayne, I guess he was cruising by so fast with his electric motor he didn't see me.  Paul showed up later, never saw him either. How'd ya do Paul?

were just getting started down here!! Kayak fishing is on fire, I see twenty Kayak Anglers out there in not so long.....

KT:
I don't eat Greenling that often, but there good eating, not as firm as Cod and Ling... Good to see ya in The AOTY KT!, Go get 'em.

LOL.

oh yea, That Black in that pic is the smallest one i've ever caught. Cute little guy, he'll probably end up on my dinner plate someday...
