I am not claiming a skunk today. I caught bait and two sea lions. Hooked them good too. I bet their mouths are a little sore tonight. Serves them right for stealing my best bait.

Despite the poor fishing, this event was very enjoyable. Thanks to Jim, Matt and all the others who helped put this together. This was my first Moyer. I will certainly be back again next year.

Ouch that sounds pretty slow. Should of come down and fished for halibut. How big was the top fish?

26 pound halibut, saw it gaffed right after I released this snaggle-toothed halibut wannabe.......I should have read the rules a little better

Awesome carnitas! and I made out in the raffle

Congrats to all who won and congrats to all who supported this very worthy cause!!!

Thanks to the Sammons and Moyer families!

Great tourney with or without fish. There were several large fish caught that did not count. Lots of folks fished Halibut all day all over for nada. I spent half the day not catching YT and the other half not catching Halibut.

Big Thanks to Matt , Jim and Family for making this tournament possible.
You guys are some of the most righteous people I know.

I hope this tradition continues forever.
--------------------

My total on the day was 2 Bonito and 3 Mega Macks

, all on irons.
They were so big I didn't dare pin one on as bait. That big thresher seemed to follow us all day and I didn't want any part of him.

That Mack wound up being a $50 fish
