Islander June 4/5-2010
Well we had good weather overcast all day but light to medium wind from the Southand and as usual great crew-there is simply none better at the kayak mothership drill-great food and plenty of it. Service as usual smooth and professional and kind of crowded with 26 anglers/divers, but all went according to plan except the fishing for me
 . The swim step entry to the kayak was as smooth as it can get and easy for all skill levels and two skiffs allowed them to run anywhere and help requests were handled immediately in every case.The Calicos as usual were hungry and some constant action. I heard reports of 7+# and over 50 bass for some-that's quite a day  . Without trying hard I got over 20 calicos but not exactly what I was chasing- and (need halibut smilie Adi ).Yes,  Dave lost at least three flatties and one right at the boat-I need a Bosnian fishing clinic I guessThe usual suspects abord and some new faces-everyone seemed to get along great and most I am sure will be back, so lets all keep supporting the ISLANDER. Tell your friends about it and show them the pictures that I am sure are about to get posted here- Jackpot fish was huge halibut but that's another anglers story to tell Thanks OEX and Brent for the $50.00 donation to top off the jackpot. Dave

good seeing you again dave. conditions a little nice than cat, huh
 here's a couple of my calicos. I was hell bent to throw the slugs, and coulda caught more maybe, but nothing compares to that slug fishing     islander rocks  was determined to get as much fishing in that one day as I could. and I'm sore as hell today!!! can't wait until next year. |

it was great to fish the Islander (again)...
Rob, congrats on the new PB... A special thanks to Kerry (not sure of the spelling) for supplying us all with the BUGZ Custom Baits and jig heads...way cool! as for personal best calicos... I was only able to tie mine... not my best but still still a beast... a modest 6.75 lber... just can't seem to hit the 7 lb mark... maybe my scale is rusty or something... yeah that's it.... any hoo... lots of good bass to be had.... for me, swim baits were the hot ticket in the morning and then surface iron Tady 45 in the afternoon.... Pierpont got about 4 or 5 of these 6.5 lbers.... and take note of the BUGZ bait hangin' out of the mouth...they do work...  then we both got one at the same time, double trouble... Mine was a 6.75 lber (my left hand right)... and Mark's was a 6.5 lber on the Boga(my right hand)...  the biggest fish Mark got (and the fish that took my five dollars) was Mark's 7.75 lber...what toad....
