ft ross fri 10/30

Hey guys,
Bloodbath here! It was great to meet up with all the guys at Fort Ross, even though I did not fish. The weather was so perfect that I decided to spend it with the family. What an awesome day. NCKA is the shizzle dizzle!
David, thanks again, shall I save your catch bag?

Sounds great guys, wish I could have joined you.  Mike

Sailfish, you fishing that scampi on a 3 way. how does it behave? Obviously its effective. Does it not tend to spin?

I used a short (1/2 inch) slider and it works very well only got tangled once while fighting the under-Ling.  I like this method since I can change the weight/sinker quickly to responde to the changing tide/current.

It sure was great to be out there with all of you guys.  I still have not cleaned the fish that are in the cooler.  I have to get every meat when I fillet them because it's going to be a looooong 7mos. before the opening day.
Till then see you guys for the sturgeon, crab, and butt season

Some pics...A CA fixer upper, complete with guests.

One of my Reds, my last Ling of the year, and one of Adams Reds, and a gull that took us in for the day, very cute.

Its been many snows since Ive been involved in blowing up a pumkin, its still fun!
This first one was just an empty cardboard box-LOUD!

Congrats to all. It looks like everyone that showed up had a wonderful day and
was greeted with a beautiful day OTW. Thanks to all who shared some pictures
and reports.

I saved all my fish carcass too.  So are you go crabbing this weekend? 

It was a BITTER-SWEET DAY, but all good things come to an end ...like the pumpkin!    Ben, I shoulda squeezed another day out of that pair of underwear and stayed!!   They said it was gonna change!, good on you for finding something to pick the next day.
Fishing with my best buddies, on a day that was supposed to be bad, but turned out EPIC!!

I went up looking to kill some fish and that's exactly what i did!!

Enjoy the pic i took

The Legume crew was thinking of you guys at Da Fort. Looks like all had great days to end the season. F***ing awesome!
Ben-that is a high quality red in your pic, NICE ONE!
another great report guys!

It was a beautiful day, great to hang and fish with everyone, and meet a few new folks.  Kept a big red and a black, C&R'd a nice olive and 6 other blacks/blues.  Ready to go again........

Take care all - John
