Old mans head with a Hat. Damn you kids have some imagination. All I see is damn lines going each and everyday.

The old man is named after a pirate that frequented the reef for jumbo bluebacked lobster. The Hat is for the large amounts of hatless fish
What's the scientific name of that lobster?

I made it to the hat on Friday on my Outback.  Over 7 miles each way.  I was fortunate to have the current in my favor on the way back.  It may have been a mistake going the day before the tournament since it wore me out, but Im still glad I went.  The salmon were deep so I didn't get any chrome down tere, but I did get a nice vermillion and copper as well as pulled on some lings.
