Congrats on number 20. It sounds like you're the dream as many suggested when you left from here.

I'm kinda curious, what's your primary past time activity, after fishing of course?

We'll I have been doing a a lot of reading which I enjoy. Fiction mostly. I took a bunch of hardcovers down here with me plus a Nook with a few books on it and my a nexus 7 with a few more. The house has a very nice TV and Blu-ray player and a library of close to a thousand dvds which keeps me occupied. Long walks on the deserted beaches with my shore rod or just beach combing. I have to be back in California in late August for a month or so and I'm thinking of getting a quad or dirt bike to explore some areas that I can't get to with my truck. Depending on your outlook, there is plenty to do or not much to do. It fits me just fine.

Great report! Sounds absolutely amazing there. Cheers!

Congratulations on number 20. I wonder if yellowtail have been caught in every month down there? Have you mingled with the locals? To me it would be a perfect spot if it was relatively close to a larger city but then again it wouldn't be what it is, which is a nice remote spot with few tourists and relatively undeveloped which is fantastic.

If there were a good golf course nearby that would be great also but highly doubtful that would ever happen at all.

Being a city boy most of my life to me it would be tough to live down there year round but you seem to have found contentment.

Good on you.

We'll I have caught yellows every month from November through April so I am going to bet that they can be caught every month. I'll let you know in October.

No golf course close by but lots of sand traps and a big ass water hazard.

Amigo, you are probabally right, year round yellows. BTW Hobie called Friday with me flat on my back and said the MY NEW 2015 OUTBACK was ready for pickup. Got to pick it up this morning, now to do the rigging so it is ready by the time I can get back into the water after toe removal. New yak means lots of motovation. Ross leave me a few fish for July, see you then.

Good news on your new peddle boat. Better think about the new version of the peddle thingy. Reportedly easier on the body, but not the wallet.

No worry about leaving some fish for ya. I have only harvested 2 fish in 7 weeks, one being the 48 pounder so it will probably be another month or so before I take another.

Glad to hear you're enjoying it! Fishing sounds all-time and like you are getting the place dialed.. got to make it down and learn a thing or 2 from THE local

Nice fish!
