Irvine Lake Campout

[ful-rac]

Well here we are on the "6" of this trip, thanks to everyone for showing up, I don't know about anybody else but I had a great time! I know we didn't catch any yellowtail or seabass or halibut on this trip.... but it's not always about catching a glory fish. As corny as it sounds...it's really about the, "people". Spending time with other kayak fisherman, sharing stories, enjoying good eats...complaining about, "somebody that snores" too loud....

Special congrats to Mike (Bwana) for catching the biggest stringer and the biggest fish! Also for donating his winnings to Paul Lebowitz and his family for his son James. A total of $170 we raised!
