Thanks for the porn Geoff. Looks like another epic day for you guys. Hopefully there's a break in the weather next weekend. I want to find myself a school of blacks. That must've been a real cool site.

Nice haul!

Nice Vids.  Man, we haven't had viz like that up here on the north coast in months.  Nice job.

Almost forgot:

This message is for the spearo we met from Oakland - Joel.

If you find this message, sign up and join, then drop me a pm. We didnt find your mask and snorkel, but you can use mine if you like,as I may be upgrading very soon.

cheers,

Geoff

Snuck back out again this AM with Porky. Swell had bumped form 3 feet to 7 feet, but there was a long period between big sets and it was totally manageable still.

Porky forgot his weightbelt so he did shore suppot, even though I offered to give him mine and just go swim around and surface hunt.

Vis was a little more turbid, but still at least 15 feet.

Poked a nice ling between the eyes, missed a shot at another MFPB way back in a hole, got a nice 15+ inch Black, a 15 inch camoed Cabbie,  and a dinky Black and Yellow for my buddies 6 year old. 

Gonna have a bunch of friends over tonight for a Rocky/Cabbie/MFPB early Valentines day Fish/Beer/Wine fest.
 
Feel very lucky that I have found a way to deal with my anger/stress in the ocean rather than the way I used to...some fish may die, but it is MUCH healthier and more positive than the old ways...
