Charters this week

We had two charters scheduled on the Daily Double for Tues (10/16) and Thurs (10/18) this week. Tues was a fantastic day...we tagged almost 100 calicos in Point Loma kelp! We also caught some short white seabass and a couple dozen rockfish (gopher, kelp, and grass rockfishes) that were all released. Everyone had an awesome time, and Bruce grills an insane galley burger! Most of the calicos came on light line with flylined squid strips off the stern. Tommy Gomes was very generous and donated a bunch of Uni-Goop and Uni Butter for the trip. As a result, we had an awesome chum line off the stern that kept the calicos around...so a massive thank you to Tommy Gomes, Catalina Offshore Products, Dave Rudie, and the San Diego Oceans Foundation (www.sdof.org).Today we all showed up for the trip, but the wind and swell had picked up quite a bit overnight. Both factors combined had already caused some of the other boats to turn around as soon as they got outside the bay. We decided to cancel and reschedule for next week...so it looks like we're running three charters next week. We'll post the dates later today.
