Here ya go Rog, past photos from your neck of the woods; Scat Cat and Wharf Cat. I took 'em out twice years ago overnight offshore to the rigs, had to stop, OMG fifteen minutes out and kids would be already laid out with seasickness, eleven hours and forty-five minutes to go. Plus kids with asthma and such wouldn't put that on their permission form for fear they couldn't go, again you'd find out five hours along, seven hours to go

He we are all wiped out coming back in the morning, then kids who had spent about the whole trip puking their guts out and laying incapacitated in the cabin would ask me when they could go again grin

I won the pot, almost 3 hundred bucks, on that boat yrs ago ( 1990 I think ) with a 12-inch sand trout, was the only fish caught.


We always go in April, after the kids have had a whole year to raise the funds and we know which ones we want to bring. The very best years we camped out at Goose Island SP. This has gotten progressively more difficult to do because of various legalisms and liability concerns. The District worries about getting sued in case of a mishap and the parks have gotten a lot more crowded, ya gotta reserve way in advance anymore.
