2012 Islander Mothership Schedule - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Heads up:

We had issues with our power outlet in our stater room. So if you plan on charging your gear make sure you check the outlet to see if it's working. I had to fiddle around with the prongs on my plugs to make sure it makes contact with the electrical contacts inside the receptacle. I used a charger with a charging-indicator light to test the outlet or just touch the charger for warmth.

Hope this helps.

Anybody checked tides/weather for this weekend? And please don't post the chart!

I'm from AZ... just tell me "good", "bad" or "HOLY !@#$, you haven't heard about the hurricane!"

Looking foward to it!

1 day and counting....
Looks like the wind will be blowing this weekend but I like the reports of yellows at Clemente.

there's good news and bad news

http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/station_page.php?station=46086

Conditions at 46086 as of
(9:50 pm PDT on 06/20/2012)
0450 GMT on 06/21/2012:

Wind Direction (WDIR): WNW ( 300 deg true )
Wind Speed (WSPD): 11.7 kts
Wind Gust (GST): 17.5 kts
Wave Height (WVHT): 5.2 ft
Dominant Wave Period (DPD): 12 sec
Average Period (APD): 6.4 sec

that looks pretty bad. 12-18kt winds, 5 ft swells at 12 seconds. that's gonna be a bumpy ride. but...

water temp is 64.

further offshore...

http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/station_page.php?station=46047

Wind Speed (WSPD): 17.5 kts
Wind Gust (GST): 21.4 kts
Wave Height (WVHT): 6.6 ft
Dominant Wave Period (DPD): 11 sec
Average Period (APD): 6.1 sec

18-20kt winds with 6-7ft swells at 11 seconds. yeah, that's not gonna be fun. been out in worse at catapalooza, but that's probably coming in to the island. and just getting on and off the boat will be a thrill ride. unless he can get out of it on the lee side or inside pyramid cove.

there's some great fishing on the front side, and I would think that we'd be pretty protected in tight to the front side.

either way, shane and john are top notch and will have a great game plan. see y'all tomorrow afternoon.
