Islander 6/19 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

ship 4 brains · 06-23-2009, 06:18 AM

I was on the trip also. Brendon, you certainly earned those fish. The burrito to go was classic. There was no way anybody was getting you off the water.

Fishing for me was slow too, a few calicos, but no luck looking for the home run.

As for the Islander and its crew, what a great organization. The captain, crew, cooks, everyone bent over backwards to make the trip enjoyable.

I would recommend the ship for any trip, Tuna, Long Range, Mothership, whatever. They are top notch.

It was nice meeting some faces that I see posting here, Tom, and Brandon, I have seen your screen names and now I put a face to the computer name.

Lets keep in touch and go out locally when we can make it work.

Tom -

Thanks for the invite. I'm heading to Catalina on Thursday AM to celebrate my 40th (Ouch). I'm taking the yak for 3 or 4 days of fishing with my cell and blackberry turned off.

Keep in touch. I'd like to hook up again.

Attack of the Plano bait-bucket dragger...gotta love it!

And don't take that as a slam, bro...I dragged an anchor for years myself. It will only add to your appreciation of that bait-tank when you get one.
