Looks like you got that kayak dialed in.
Opal eye perch. They get 20"+. I hear they're Good fried.
Hey, do you remember the hours for the CG station parking lot?

Thanks! It was Chris, right? Thank you for the positive ID!

As for the CG parking, it for sure opens up at 6am, and I want to say it closes at 10pm. Not 100% on the closing time though.

Congrats on the maiden bait tank run...looks like it turned out ok to me....
I gotta get back to NPH it is some pretty nice fishing there...water temp up there, or did it fall off like up here in ventura...

6 am to 10 pm

They are cool with getting there a little early in the AM for fishing but dont push the PM .I found that out coming in from hooping a little late.

not really that important as i believe all the perch fall under same regulations set forth by the DFG....

but pretty sure that is not an Opaleye.....coloring looks off...was there a little light colored spot just next to the dorsal?

How was the wind? Hitting Cherry with Landwhale tomorrow, hopefully there's not a lot of morning sickness. I'm horrible with IDs, but it looks like a Blacksmith to me.
