GS9 - Super Long Report on Page 61 - NCKA Rules!

I envision myself there in 369 days. Let the countdown begin.

-FF

Hey Guys,
Anyone have space to park the Headwaters van, Friday, Saturday and Sunday Night. Have no problem helping pay for site and/or extra beer. Apologies for the short notice, but we never know until the date gets close who will be able to go. Can't wait to get up there

This will be my 6th year in a row up at GS!!

 

I'm visualizing spending as many hours underwater as possible and hoping for some meaty abalone and fat fish...and harvesting urchins to share with whoever likes them.

Bringing a rod and reel and a handfull of lures just in case though. 

This was my dive up there last year...special day for me!!



 

Sincerely,

Jim

ps..for those wondering where to ab dive....I've had better luck the further I've paddled from the launch/lighthouse...Abalone Point is a well known spot for nice abs/fish, but be careful if trying to shore dive...sneaker waves can make entry and exit tricky at times...

YEAH BUDDY!!!!  I remember seeing you and Bloodbath OTW paddling back that day after you popped your trophy ab cherry...............excellent conditions last year........hoping for half of that this week.

Hell yes Jimbo! I'd be stoked to do a dive with you this year....I run my lips and always running around doing something else. I'll be there Wednesday and ready to dive, fish, eat, and chill with the crew. Will find you when you arrive.

Very Nice AbKing…

  For myself while @ GS9…

  I'm hoping to drop a few rings of being my best…

I was told you don't need a reservation, in fact you can't even get one. Show up and park in the general camping area is what I'm going to do.

There is a large overflow parking area along the west fence. Try to leave the area adjacent to RV spot 7 open for Friday night, there's a lot going on there at that time.

I envision having fun.

+1, all about having fun and hanging out with everyone.     Hopefully some nice fish too! 

I envision a hearing problem next week. Because after a few days at the Cove, that gentle humming from whistle buoy gets stuck in my head.

Any Chico area folks coming Thursday night or Friday-  I have precious cargo that needs to make it to shelter cove please pm if you can do it. Otherwise I will.

My goals... I visualize myself being one with nature. Tapping into that prehistoric connection we have with fishing, hunting and gathering. Man against nature with nothing but our plastic boats, paddle power and our wits, + (graphite rods, plastic baits, GPS, sonar, live wells, go pros, vhf radios and $1000 worth of assorted fishing gear.) It touches a real primal thing somewhere deep inside. Feeding our families and friends, as natural as it gets. Add to that the camaraderie gained when spending time watching each other's back out on the big blue. Add to that the friendships built around the campfire, Jell-O shots, oyster bakes, potlucks and ukulele sing a longs. The reality of living life, not watching reality TV. You all are the best.
