Kind of a boat test(New Prop) A speargun test(New Gun) and a wetsuite test (New Suite
Left the house kind of Late. 8:30 Had not made my mind up where I was going. Bad bumpy freeways on the 405 down to MDR or Channel islands harbor. Risk of lot full, and no parking for the Rig. So after fueling,Off to MDR I went. Launched at 10:00. Went offshore to Santa Monica Canyon for Nothin. :roll: Looking at the charts at that point. Noticed it was aprox 10 miles to Rocky Point or Paradise Cove.So figured Paradise Cove is a little less traveled and cleaner water too. So off I went. Metered around Pt Dume a bit. Then backtracked to Paradise Cove. Caught one 27" Halibut and a 36" Shark? of some sort. Didnt know what it was. He was friendly, So I let him go. The next Morning tryed out the Speargun and wetsuite for like three hours. Turns out I float like a cork with only 5lbs on the weight belt.Couldnt even dive :roll: Maybe should have tied the boat anchor to me :shock: Xlnt overnite trip as usual :D
