Claremont (LBC) / Oil Platform ESTHER 7/5/07
The estimated track and estimated range of 10.97 mi
Launched from the catamaran launch at Claremont @ 730. Cloudy overcast skies and a very low tide.
Went straight out to the break wall, west of Island Chaffee.
Trolled some Big Hammer plastics outside the Kelp. Had 1 good hit, but it didn't stay on.
Made my way out of the harbor to Oil Platform EVA or so I thought.
Upon closer inspection lo and behold my surprise. Its not EVA but ESTHER !!!!
Numerous signs regarding anchoring, gredging, mooring, and boarding. As well as underwater cabling and piping
after making 2 laps around the rig I hooked up with a barracuda
Proceeded to head in to the eastern end of Seal beach, west of the Huntington Harbor inlet.
Trolled to the seal beach pier for nothing.
Went around the pier and switched to a Mackerel Rapala. 1st shot down foul hooked a baby butt.
Trolled the western side of the pier.
Sun and wind picked up as well as the swells. Rounded Los Al entrance and back to Claremont.
Off the water @ 430
