The officail Albion report

FANTASTIC video. Thank you for posting it.

Nice to see the bros all there for assistance!

I had a front row seat for the rescue. There were at least another half dozen members within 20 yards if additional assistance was necessary. Luis was in great hands and was being assisted within 30 seconds of rolling his yak.

Awesome job coming to the aid of another brother!!!

Proud to be NCKA!!

That was interesting to say the least. Ben was the man with the plan and Johnny on the spot. Way to keep your cool, bro, and glad we were all around to help.

Luckily we got everything squared away before we drifted into those nasty breakers.

For my second time being out there in the ocean and in those conditions I was really glad to see all the awesome support NCKA showed with Scubaluis rescue it makes me more and more proud and happy to be apart of this amazing group of folks.

Thanks for another great time Craig & Linelle! All of your hard work is much appreciated and won't be forgotten. That was super cool of Ocean Kayak to hook our brother Joel up with a spanking new kayak/ride like that so big thanks to Mike Mowry, hope I spelled that right, & Ocean Kayak for doing that. Also big congrats to Terry, Marcos, and Adam for besting the rest of the field and DryBones & 02B for their Game Day Pink! Also that's pretty cool that the first contest after Marcos gets sponsored by Jackson Kayak he goes out and not only lands on the podium but gets Big Fish too in his new ride! Thank you to John/Bird for getting the appreciation gifts for Craig & Linelle again this year and everybody else that helped out with everything for a kick azz weekend. See you guys & gals soon at the next get together! Maybe my hangover will be gone by then.    jim

Sorry for the late post.  Im in agony from a molar extraction and graft but wanted to say i had fun... actually a Fantastic time. Thanks to craig and linelle, the A-hulls, tote and becky jedmo nation amadeo and fishfumbler and everyone who contributed to the event. It gets better and better every year.

Nice job on that vid, Capn.  Being one of many who were too far away to do anything but monitor on the radio, I knew from what I was hearing that the situation was being handled very well by any who were close enough.  It's reassuring to know that we have that level of dedication across the board.

First thing when I got on the water outside I thought we'd have more spills than we did.  It's a pretty awesome reflection on our club that we didn't have more than 2 with so many people on that bad of water.

Steph - you did great to catch fish in those conditions on your second ocean trip, and I love your enthusiasm and genuine interest.   

Craig and Linelle what a great outing thanks to the two of you. Randal and I got there Thurs when I hooked up with Abalonia aka Stepl at her camp site. Got to watch the rook bring her first Big Ling on the big Green.
Camped next to Bigfoot, Tom, Tommy, Joe and Joel. On the other side the AHoles....Boy was I lucky!
Jedmo Nation thanks for taking in the likes of me at your camp for some wonder Sinigang and everyone else that made this a special event.
Glen give a kiss to your wife for the wonderful breakfast this morning.

What a great time!!!!!

THANK YOU Craig and Linnelle!!

Good friends, great times...doesn't get much better!   

Threw this together real quick of the ocean goodies I found Friday and Saturday...battery died on GoPro before fuzz showed up and showed me some much nicer fish.

 



And a few pics of Kiel's Asian/Island Ab madness. 

I didn't take any pics of my catches back at camp so if anybody has any of the sacks of uni etc we hauled in I would be stoked to see them!

 

Sincerely,

Jim

BigJim nice job on the video! I have pics of some of the uni I'll post later, thanks for the ocean treats you brought in. I never tasted fresh uni before and boy was it deelicious! Not to mention Kiel's Ab dish , yum yum!! Me want more!!  By the way did you get your tent taken apart fine? I know the putting together part was easy 

LoletaEric it was nice to meet you! And again thanks for sharing your knowledge with me, looking forward to the next hookup to get in more practice and fun times! 

Frankfishing I'm glad I was able to share campsite with you and the others, had an awesome time.

Myself and Linelle really want to thank all of you for coming again and we are going to enjoy the gifts you got for us tremendously. I told Bird please dont do it this year but Ill get him later. We love Scomas restaurant in the city and Linelle is just dying to get to Outdoor Pro Shop hehe . So next year do you guys want crabs or abs? I havent spoke with Darrell at the campground yet. Your opinions would be great!

 Im sorry about some of the confusion around the clothing order. There were some mistakes in the order and I felt bad about that. Ill try to do better next year. Maybe just one color. I took a lot of pics and I cant wait for Hojo to get his on.

Thanks one more time for the gift certificates you guys. Until next year then............. Fish on!
