Will I jinx myself by insisting we get a freezer for the garage? :D[/QUOTE]

Nah, don't forget the vacuum sealer:)

April is sold out, waiting list available, 7 weeks away, may have something open up. July has only 4 spots left. Other trips have plenty of spots open.

Booked my spot for the July trip today. Can't wait to hear about the first trip.

Good to hear:)

These trips really scare me. You're miles away from the nearest convenience store. What happens if they run out of barley pops? Do they stock enough frosty malt beverages on board? I'd sure hate to have to stir up a mutiny!

Iiiii, the black pearl!
 

I'm on the april & july trips. I too hope they go. Last year the Islander cancelled the dates i reserved, and the Erik, well we all know happened there. God rest their souls.

July is full, standby available only.

San Clemente Island has been added to the list of possible destinations.

Departure times are set for 9PM

Iceman. Is it possible to bring a PA on board?

Capt Rick came by yesterday and we discussed Pro Anglers...........he wants one :D he said if he was going to fish in a "kayak" that would be the one.

He also says we can have 2 Pro Anglers per trip, so first come first serve! We will be utilizing the hoist on board that is used to load and unload the RIB/chase skiff.

Cool on the PA's. When you say first come first serve, how does that work? Do you grab the PA spot when making reservations?

And speaking of reservations, which trip are still available? I think I signed up for one but did not get a deposit in yet, did I do that?

Yes, you would have to specify when you make a reservation to secure 1 of the 2 spots allocated for Pro Anglers. If you have made a reservation, I would have taken cc $50 deposit. Call me if you think you have done otherwise. 562-592-0800

So, are you going to hold the can or pull the tab?

If the weather cooperates we will be fishing San Nic on day 1 and Santa Barbara on day 2........unless something pops elsewhere.

halibut, lings, sheephead, shallow rockfish, whitefish and bass are the expected target species, plastics, iron and dropper loop fishing.

2 Weeks! We depart at 9pm, start loading at 7:30. Parking is free.

Freedom fished San Nic on Easter. At the very least we will have killer resident fish. 10 days, hopefully water temps climb.
