Nice report! Glad you guys made off safe if he was taking on that much water.

Thanks. He's had an ongoing issue with this leak. He took on about 3 gallons today. Hopefully it'll be patched and not leaking next week.

Hasn't that boat been leaking for awhile? I seem to remember an issue at Mission Bay last year.

Good report though, I should have loaded up and gone out. I always kick myself for not going when I could have.

Weather permitting we're thinking Dana for next week. You should join us. And yes, Steve's yak has been leaking a while, but it's getting worse.

Been tryin to patch the cracks in the bottom of the scupper now I'm going to have a patch ove3r the area that will stop the leak.

The fishing was good 15 fish with 4 legal spotties one 1.5lber caught on 1/2oz Coolbaits underspins with Houdini and Redbone Zman Paddles dipped in Uni Butter.

Another fun day fishing with ED nice to see fish moving deeper into the Harbor
