Love launching from there! You should sign up for the Rock Fish Slamdown September 14th! It's the one event I look forward to every year.

Go to 99 Ranch and pick up a pack of frozen baby octopus. Use the tentacles on the hooks of a flatfall jig. Got my first big Ling at the tournament last year on that. and lots of rockfish.

Nice report. It is so windy up there most the time, it really makes one appreciate the calm days.

Yes it is a magical place. A fish finder is helpful for sure there is a high spot about a mile out that comes up from 90ish feet to 50. lots of kelp to fish too. As for the Slam Down, don't miss it. Fun tournament and a great pot luck afterwards. Hear the winner gets a trip to Cedros this year. Great raffle at the awards ceremony too. Congrats on the big red, sorry about the ling.
