Drove all the way back up to Dana Point and launched there. Wasn't much better there. Guy at the bait barge(not Jeff, who is normally super cool) was in a really bad mood and felt the need to spread it around(tipped him anyway). Pretty much set the mood for the whole day. Trudged out 4 miles offshore to drift for deep halibut, but got beat up by wind and crossed-up, irregular swells, rained on and skunked. Would've been better off staying in bed to be honest. Just one of those days. But I'll be out again next weekend anyway, just like always...

Yeah, not sure what's up w/ bait barge. 1 scoop ! Usually more with the tip.
Service doesn't matter when you are the only game in town.
