Well, since CCA has decided that tournaments are a waste of time, I traveled north for my first tournament of the year. Conditions could not have been any better, but fishing started off super slow. Decided to leave the crowd and peddled north several miles and hit the jackpot, first drop - big Red, then Lings and more reds. Total for the day - 5 lings (2 kept), 5 Reds, Copper rockfish and uncounted blues and gophers. Awesome day of fishing - with lots and lots of fish tacos in my future. Already looking forward to next year.
