Ron's fishing trip

Friday, October 22, 2010

Once again...we caught a beautiful day. Started out early...as Ron had to be checked in by 7:30 for his fishing excursion in the ocean 20 miles out from Coos Bay.









It was a 5 hour excursion...and he caught his limit of Black Rock Bass and Blue Rock Bass.
Jean was going to join the group as a "rider"...but backed out...too chilly at 7:30 a.m. Turns out it was a good choice for her to stay back. The swells were running 9-10 feet. Ron got a little queasie...but one of the other guys got sick.



Jean's picture taking skills have something to be gained...but she did catch Ron coming up the plank with his load of fish.











The resident filet expert prepared the fish for taking home for $5. a person. Can't beat that.


It so happened that there was an inspector to greet this group when they came in - to make sure that all of the fish were long enough...and weighed enough.



All in all...We had at least 5 pounds of filets to bring back to the RV...we had a great fish dinner tonight...and have 6 more waiting for us in the freezer. :-)
