Nope, no dories. Actually, one of the guys out with me that day has a dory. He said he wouldn't have even considered trying that day in his boat.

Cool Stuff. That Cabbie is Gross Big!

Cool videos too. I couldn't stop watching the launch vid- I was getting all nervous just watching it. I almost had to stop watching the catching vid, because I was getting seasick

Looks lie a cool area, Its on my list...

Reminds me of my first surf launch at Cabrillo, took a wave close to that size straight to the chest. Fortunately, I wasn't tossed but it was definitely one of those "OOH SH*T" moments. Congrats on the Cabezon, that thing is a beast! I know this is an oxymoron but that's the pretty ugliest Cabezon I've ever seen.

Very cool, thanks for update form up North!

You guys have some gnarly swell to deal with...

I hate when they roll forever like that.

That cabazone is a pig! I've only caught 2 hare in South CA for all my time fishing, and they were much smaller.

Sup lamb!

Yeah, believe it or not, that's about an average sized cabby for Depoe Bay. During the Oregon Rockfish Classic last year, I caught at least four or five around that size and ended up in fifth place. The guy who took first caught a cabby that was 11lbs and 25.5". That's why I love that place, plenty of piggies to fight!

Really well done report, nice footage, nice fish, the yard sale footage definately had pucker factor in it and sorry it happened, glad it wasn't too bad, but again great camera footage, I wouldn't know what to do with a
Cab that big, yummy!
I actually thought the launch looked like it was a place out here called Morro Bay...nice job bravo

Looks like you gave it a hell of a try to get past those breakers. I can only imagine the fishing would have been much better, otherwise you'd have not given it a go. Still your results at the location change were very, very good.

Nice report on some fine eating fish you caught.

StinkyMatt · 03-09-2011, 05:16 PM

Very, Very,Very LARGE brass ones!

overheard at a S. Ca launch:

"Man those waves are so, so big, maybe we should just go have a martini or a strawberry daquiri and go by the fish market on the way home."

nice cabezon, thats a dark one! i really thought you made it too. nice jiggin on those rock fish!

GregAndrew · 03-09-2011, 07:42 PM

Awesome stuff there!! If that is the average stuff there you guys need more cameras for us to live vicariously through.

Yakinitup, many, many years ago I was a Portland guy, and used to work weekends at Next Adventure. I can remember when they opened in a small space about a block from the current store. There was barely anything in the place at first, but then the place blew up!

Killer vids!

Not much time between sets...

I give you a A+ for trying. I enjoyed the video. Thanks for posting.
