Meat necklace!...... latest Elk casual attire

After months of no water time, SBD coaxed me out from under my rock. Last weeks report from him spurred me on.
We dove dirty water for quick limits of snails. Then hit the pinnacles for some opening day rocky action..
Overall the action was a little slower than what we are used to , but we brought home good table fare.We had a mixed bag, mostly blacks,a nice cabbie, a little china and a copper, and a few standard issue lings. Luckily the "Gopher patrol" was on leave...
 Nice to hit the salt again!

Here are some pictures of the ingredients and SBD's completed "Meat Necklace"!

Nice Shim! Stoked you guys got out and enjoyed a great day on the water. Was the water temp cold enough to affect the bite you think?

Thanks for the report!

It was cold! The surface temp on FF read 46-47 degrees. We marked a lot of suspended fish but most were tight lipped.

Good work Shimmy.  Wish I could have joined you... I needed the therapy too.  Next time!

Ok Erik! Lets try to go before the party crasher with the grey suit shows up..........

Nice report Shimmy! Good to see BOTH of you OTW with fresh fish and abalone.

Good to see you made it out, Mark. Is the first picture a copper? It is so yellow that at first I thought I was looking at a goldeneye.
