I need meat for a taco party. Drove down to my neighborhood seafood market. Looked at the selection of rockfish. Did some math in my head. Put back my shopping cart. Went home. Loaded my boat. Drove down the 710. Launched my boat. ETA according to my fishfinder after leaving the breakwall: 15:47. Arrived at mark : VermillionHole34. Put on a JAX jig and a shrimp fly. Instant double vermillions. 2, then 4, then 6, 7,8, then last drop is a double, so that makes 10. Done in about an 1 hour. Clean fish. Drove home. Stop by Jerrys Mexican Grill and got me a veggie burrito. Arrived home. Clean boat. Opened a beer. Ate my burrito. Showered. Napped. Woke up. Went to taco party. Pictures of my day:

Hmmm...estimate of 2lb per cod. I need 10 fish. So that would be:
($6.99 x 2) x 10 = $139.80
LA County Tax: 9.75%
($139.80 x 0.0975) + $139.80 = $153.43 Market price for fish
After I took the picture they told me I had to delete it. I didnt. I will just blur their logo, so I wont be banned from there if they happen to stumble on this.

It works :D !!!
$20 truck gas + $30 boat gas +$12 launch fee = $63 Catch my own fish
$153.43 - $63 = $90.43 Savings
Thats it. I had fun and saved some money. See you all next time.
