Great trip. Awesome group of guys. Big thanks to Andy for throwing this little thing together.

Highlight for me was the amount of species that I caught. I caught at least 20 species that I can remember, but I’m sure I’m forgetting some. I was able to check a few new ones off the list as well.

Here is my species list (in no particular order)
1-Calico Bass
2- Spotted Bass
3Sand Bass
3- Halibut
4- Yellowfin Croaker
5- Blue perch
6- Blacksmith perch
7- Sargo
8- Garibaldi
9- Sheepshead
10- Legal Ling (My first in season)
11- Sculpin
12- Vermillion
13- Starry
14- Gopher
15 - Brown Rockfish?
16- Greenback Mack
17- Sardine
18- Spanish Mack
19- Nudibranch
20- Rock Wrasse (Male & Female)
21- Senorita

I know that most of that list is trash fish or bait fish, but it is pretty cool to be able to sight cast 20 ft deep into a virtual aquarium. Who else here has sight casted to sheepshead?

Here are the triple nipple stats.
CJ made some deal with the devil.
I won 4.
Moyer ended up a one time winner, but a 20 time participant in the final roll.
Drew won 4 in a row. That is statistically impossible.
Nate rolled 6 triples in a row, then made it rain on unsuspecting strangers.

Heres some of my pics


Chef Troy and Chef Moyer Ramsey made two delicious meals

Perfect weather. No swell, no wind, just a little overcast.


Blue ling


Anacapa’s chunky sculpin from Farnsworth


Short Hali


Rock Wrasse (Female)


The ever elusive blue perch


Check out the over-sized motor on this tiny calico. Fought like a 5 lber.


Taco time (just kidding)


Numero Dos


About 30 of these little guys. Scrappy.


My first


Caught about ten of these.

For sure this is one of my favorite trips of the year. VERY exhausting, but absolutely worth it. Cant wait til next year.
