Linda Mar 7-9

Arrived at the launch ~6:45 - Joel, and Scott and Roger from Sacto were setting up. Next was Tommy H., diver and fisher extrordinaire.
    I shot out ahead of everyone and didn't even wet my line 'till I was a quarter mile west of the big point. Trolled straight out another half mile for nothing. No birds, nothing. Came back in a bit and headed south; finally some bait balls, but me and a PB were right on them repeatedly for nothing. By now I was down to Egg Rock off Devil's Slide, the farthest I've paddled at Linda Mar. Paddled the long troll back toward Linda Mar bay with Mike, and just before I was going to pull the rotary out, wham! About center line on the big rock, a couple hundred yards north. She weighed 14# at the house.
    Tommy came in with a nice stringer of blacks, Joel and Scott some rockfish too, but the day belongs to Roger with the 30 pound WSB. Amazing!

It's the most wonderful time of the year!

Whoa! The pictures bigger than life size! Some people will do anything to make their fish look big...

Way to go Rich!  

Nice fish and nice photo too.  Hey Granitedive... you were due for a nice one!
