6/11 Catalina 3/4 day mothership - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

How's the boat?

Yak storage looks dialed in. Wanting more space for all the gear? That swimstep looks like it could get dicey in any sort of pitching of the boat.

Nice pix.

Sold, the idea of throwing fishing rods in the car, and hitting the road for a day trip to the island is an awesome opportunity. The most "bang for the buck" I've ever seen. The only possible improvement I can think of is to dissembark at 3:00a.m.
I can see it now

(no need to load my own kayak)

Sweet, I might need to take a trip up there and do this soon.

Mothership trip for 2, around $200 ....you know the rest....

Being outfished by your son and having fun doing it, is of course priceless.

Thanks and good job to Ryan and the crew on this maiden voyage. A good time was had by all. Will be back as soon as possible.

Looks like fun!!! Can't wait to get on the boat.

An earlier departure would make this trip perfect. Arrive at the Island at grey light.

Take it easy!
