Launched outta Alamitos bay.
Warm sun, cool breeze, some fog, water ok but really green
Got under way @ 0730.
Made my way to the inlet.
E-SE winds picked up and with it lots of rollers coming in.
Seemed like it took forever to get to the breakwall
Couldn't make a decent headway even with the peddles.
Started trolling a rapala and a kroc
Caught and released a Calico
DFG came up on me in their RHIB boat checking licenses
2 - man team real nice and professional , asked about any catches told about the Calico
THey said they've only seen tomcods today
Action was real slow
Made it past the Catalina Express corridor to the second section of the breakwall
Immediately on section 2 of the breakwall got bit by a huge MAC
and sent back down por nada
Never made it to the bend
Decided to take a short cut back and landed at Claremont Catamaran launch rather than going ALL around again
Knees seemed like they were taking a beating today
Landed @ 2 pm
Logged around 11.5 mi
