I’m a bit uncertain as to how to proceed, in the event Arthur goes out fishing but I don’t. This is my blog, not Arthur’s. So my gut intuition is not to include reports of his excursions. But I also wanted the fishing reports to be a log of our “take” and where we got results. So for that reason, I want to record it.
For the record, Arthur went out fishing today, with his brother Alan and with two guests – Joe (who has joined us before) and Joe’s friend Jim from Idaho. With the four of them, I felt that the boat would have been too crowded with me along, too, so I figured they would work it out, among themselves. I trusted Alan, Joe and his friend to competently take on my role as “safety officer.”
They caught three coho off San Ignacio Island. “All catching was done in the fog,” Alan summarized. They also caught a few small black bass and rockfish, thrown back.
Year-to-date totals:
- Coho: 14
- Kings: 0
- Halibut: 0
- Other: 1
- Too-small fish sent home to mama: 17
- Downrigger weights left on the bottom of the sea: 1
