CATAPALOOZA 2009;
I had a great time, My life needs yak fishing bad... the serenity is priceless

Spent many hours on the water and caught lots of fish, no wsb or yellows but a few legal Halibut, and a new personal best calico.
Bunch of very cool kayak fishermen, got to put alot of faces to names, and meet new guys who share the yak fishing passion
A passion we all need to fight for if we hope to enjoys these waters of ours in the near future!!!!
BIG THANKS TO THE ICEMAN!!! for putting it all together!
Thanks to Aaron for the ride (again :mrgreen: )
Thanks to John for getting the food stuff
Thanks to Ron for the Squid
Thanks to Brian for the live candy (and Blair, Aaron and John for your work at night)
Thanks to Bing for calling me over to the WSB bite
And Thanks to Yakrider for not ramming my kayak harder than he did :shock: if I wasnt so in the zone and tired I woulda chit my pants :mrgreen:
