2016 End of Season

LA Rod & Reel Club charter on the Pacific Dawn December 3rd closed out my 2016 fishing season.  What a closure it was too.  Limits of ling cod by 9:45 a.m. and limits of Reds by noon plus fishing with great friends Jim, Tom, Roland, and Andy.

Weather predictions sounded poor "Gail Force Winds for the inner waters and Small Craft Advisory for outer waters,"  A closer look at Passages Weather showed calm winds surrounding the Channel Islands.  Unfortunately, a few club members bailed rather than trust that Captain Pat Cavanaugh would never take the club charter out in dangerous or even really rough conditions.  I'm sure glad I didn't miss the trip.

I'll let the photos tell the rest of story.
