NCKA Islander Trip, 2013 Report

Great Crew

This picture is the best shot I've seen that captures the crew and the entire feeling associated with the trip.   These guys love to fish and help folks fish too.   There is a bad ass mojo associated with this shot.  Great picture Dustin.  The crew needs to see this.   

Loosing that goat killed me.  It was 2x bigger tun the 5 pound guy I brought in.  I swear he made no attempt to get under him with the gaff but rather just smacked him off the hook.   I was bummed but not mad at all.   Still got to reel in 5 goats,  just lost the biggest.   

My dad is the guy in the red jacket.  He had a great time.   He said at one point Saturday that he had to prep for a meeting Tuesday (today).  I asked him Sunday,  when are you going to prep for your meeting at work?  He said,  "Fuck work,   this fishing is awesome!" 

Our anchor spot Sunday morning was super fishy.  Every drop yielded something within ten seconds.   Great times for sure.  I'll post up a few stories later when I get free time.

No pics or video,  The Green Fish GoPro Mount was a piece of crap and broke. 

 

Been waiting for you guys to post this!   Looks like a great time was had by all.

Awesome pic & report guys!

Wow, that looks like an epic trip. Good job guys!!

That trip looks ALL TIME!!! 

glad you guys had great weather and some great catching, cameron

So stoked for you guys. I know how magical the Islander can be. What I don't know is what it's like to have FAC on one of their trips.
Can't wait to hear the stories first hand around a camp fire.
