Wrote up a blog post from Sunday's session. We caught about 10 ocean whitefish, 1 calico bass, 1 short sheephead, 3-4 kelp rockfish, 2-3 gopher rockfish, 1 calico rockfish, 1 rosy rockfish, 1 starry rockfish, 1 treefish, 1 flag rockfish, 1 honeycomb rockfish, and 2 longfin sanddabs.

Great blog man! Sorry to hear about your Subaru that sucks. Looked like a fun day on the water tho! What were you using for bait while fishing the bottom?

Awesome post man! I always enjoy reading the blog because it helps a noob like me identify what those fish look like since those pictures are super nice

Great post! Love the pics and identification. Sucks about the Suby though. I had a '12 Outback that blew a head gasket at 80K miles... was a fun $4,000 repair out of warranty. Hope your clutch is much easier on the wallet!

$2200 and counting for the clutch issues.

I still feel like they're good cars overall, but there have been several major issues with this one. The dealer swapped the entire engine at 60k.

Nice write up - sorry about the clutch.

I had to replace it on my 2014 Outback at 70k... broke down 15 miles outside Denver on I-70. My wallet still hurts...
