Stickers...
 

Just some personal motivation...

1 sticker = >40" hali
Currently there are four stickers (the light colored ones don't show up in pics).

My goal is a BIG sticker for a 50" or better hali. May not be attainable, but it's something to shoot for. And cover up that nasty Hobie decal ;).

:notworthy::notworthy:

What are you going to do . . .
 

With all that Hali meat? IF your freezer is full. . . I'll be in Lake forest later today with an iced cooler! :D

Today I did the capo beach area from 5-10:30 am. I was running out of time, and wanted lunch, so I kept the 2nd calico caught. Released another about the same size. Just after that I hooked up this booger. my first keeper!
