Newbie 1st go-out in Monterey

Took Dan out today from Coast guard pier.  His first go-out fishing.  He retired and his buddies bought him all the stuff to kayak fish.  Nice!

Kelp beds by Aquarium were slow.  Yellow buoys were productive for a ling a and four rockies, three gophers and a brown and one black.  (oops that's five)

And, no, I did not charge extra for the Self-Rescue lesson, but did make an extra tip by deleting the photo I was going to send to his wife....Dan thought ahead and had everything tied down.  Mostly.

Beautiful out there till 10am when the wind came up.

Thanks for the report and pictures Allen.

Nice one allen. NCKA continues to spread the madness.

One tip:  Both SC and Mnty this week the fish preferred herring to squid....Just sayin'

Great job putting the Newb on some fish Allen. Another one engulfed in the madness. Welcome Dan. Congrats on the retirement !
