If you knew Chef and want a space, there is essentially one left, otherwise I will round it out with the standby crew and close this out (see first post for list)

Thanks for the AMAZING response.

GTO, who fished with Chef a LOT just found out, and has teneatively taken the last spot.  If spots open (and I'm sure they will), I will back fill from the standby list.  You guys rule!!!

I will post payment details etc. later this week.

Since the response was so overwhelming the overall cost has been significantly reduced.  The new cost is $255 per person, which includes all food, bait etc. PLUS a generous tip for the crew, which was not in the original price.  The only additional cost will be for beverages, which are around a buck for water and 2 bucks for a beer.

Please PM PAL to get info on where to mail your check.  This is going to be an oustanding trip!

I'm really hoping this trip goes well for you guys.  I'd like to see this become a yearly tradition so that someday when my WAF is back up I might be able to go to.

Since the response was so overwhelming, is there any possibility for a 2nd charter?
I know Chef has friends from SoCal and NorCal  :smt006

Thanks everyone for the incredible response. It's a tremendous testament to Steve, and to how many people he touched. A very sincere thanks for helping us celebrate Chef and take care of unfinished business. I'm sure we'll have a memorable time.

As the trip approaches I'll post something about the conditions at San Clemente Island and recommended gear. I hear some people will head down early enough to run out at La Jolla on Sat or Sun. I'll try to round up some local talent to show those folks around.

I'm going to toss my own $255 into the pot and then pay Islander Sportfishing with a single check drawn on my savings account. Since I'm not set up with PayPal, please send a check made out to "Paul Lebowitz" via snail mail. My mailing address is:

I'll PM a response once I receive your payment. Again, thank-you all.

Thanks for setting this up Paul and Sean.
