Hi RB:

     Looks like a good spot but, Elk Kicked my Ass so, I'm only going after low hanging Fruit.
                                                         Good Luck.
                                                         Sorry for the HighJack

Craig

Sandman and I are still in play depending on the WX. We have Fisk Mill, Stillwater and Fort Ross as back ups. I think the main concern is the launch and landing. Horseshoe seems pretty exposed to a NW swell. Will make the call next Wednesday.

Craig, I'll go, but only if you carry all my crap and my limit of 10s back up the cliff.  Kidding, I'm in.

The weather as we all know will play the big factor here. With some stuff moving in now I am hoping it blows itself out prior to the 27th. Like Scott said there are backup spots to fish if its more than we can handle on a rocky launch.  The guy at Timber cove gives me a good report most times 847-3278. Just dont rush the old guy or he gets a little cranky. I think his names Dave but dont quote me on that. :smt003. If this thing happens it will be very cool. If it doesnt I will have a future date to keep on planning for it this season. Next year it might be gone. :smt010

The cliff trail on the left of the cove is the easiest. I stress once again this is for experienced kayak fisherpeople who are in shape.

I want to go but don't know what "shape" I'm in!  :smt003

Very cool, Craig...  I love the idea but I'd have a heart attack.

You guys who do this stuff are the REAL storm troopers, imo.
