Found a nice VRBO for the family.  Our Inn Era is over!   

Prepping the bling for pre-fishing with four past clients.

Traditions were flowing strong.

I had to work until Friday afternoon!   

Bite picked up after morning brown water from the big tide.

Cruising

Keep the photos and good vibes going!  Thanks for the messages and memories.   

One more day at the Cove before I haul my truckloads of gear and goodies back home.  I'll take some time to download photos and get caught up on life (and sleep).  For now:

Huge Congrats to Kyle Monte / Midwest for his well earned victory and crowning as Angler of the Day for GSXVIII.  He brought in a 37 inch lingcod and a 21 inch vermillion to secure the victory by several inches over 2nd place Kendall Cobine and Adam Dunaway in 3rd.

Potluck, Taco Shack, Shuland and the entire weekend vibe was off the hook.  I can't overstate how wonderful it was to be with the community again.  I really didn't realize how much I've missed putting on the event and engaging with the people.

Big thanks to Brandi for another outstanding Gyotaku event on Sunday.  Big thanks to everyone for bringing so much love and joy to the Cove.
