Noyo Mouth 9/28

My buddy Joe from Ukiah and I paddled out at 0700 went Northwest around the point into a cove and popped some Abs. Visibility was in the 30' range - we usually dive further south where the vis is much less it was a treat to able to watch each other dive and see it all. Great wildlife - huge sun stars, red and purple urchins, sea trout and a nice Ling - dang I wish I had my pole spear with me!

After abs (nothing big or deep, max of 8.25") we went out to the kelp forest and did some jigging. Joe got a Blue, a Vermilion and a Ling. I boated a Blue and China. Great fun.

It was overcast on launch, sun came out then it rained on us, then the sun came out again. Considering the amount of pressure that area gets I felt it was pretty productive. It was great to get a final day in on the 'yak as Saturday and Sunday were family and WAF improvement days!

Sounds like a good day!
