Scratched the fishing itch before hunting season.
We custom made our trip with just myself and Zach and staying in Avalon one night and fishing the morning of the second day so we could catch our flight home.
Joe was great in regards to customizing our trip to what we wanted to do and within our time frame. We had live anchovies and squid. This was a meat fishing trip because I wanted nice fillets to take home. We limited on some hammer calicos, got some real nice rock fish, white fish, sheeps head. Couple short lings.
It was my call to only take a half hearted try at yellow tail, so we only gave it about 45 minutes before Zach and I wanted to go back to just catching.
We came into Avalon and had a great lunch and then out again for the evening.
Way better than the cattle boats.
Really miss the clear blue water of the pacific. Last 5 years been fishing LA for red fish and it is tea colored and very little variety in the fish you catch.
This was a great climax to our fishing season and the way to kick off hunting season. Bear starts August 1.

We also caught an angel game the night before with the best seats I have ever had thanks to ebay. Course they lost, but, it was good to see a game after so many years.
