And so it begins.....

California style is starting off in style with the first hook up of the morning... Way to go, now lets see if the early bird gets the worm.... errrr, a keeper

So they creep.....

No shotgun start on day two. Just a check in and then a smooth ride out into the ocean. The air is cool, cloud cover surrounds Catalina with clear skies above Avalon..... The anglers and TC are ready for another great day of fishing...
