IT IS TIME...GERIBALDI HALIBUT!!!

[AngleThis]

Departing this eve, destination Geribaldi. Based on NOAA predictions, we're planning a visit to the hali hole tomorrow (50%/50%), and on Sunday and Monday. Conditions permitting, after limiting out on flatties, secondary targets include lings & bottomfish, and perhaps chinook. I have coordinates for all and have been slaying the lings last few weekends.

Any other ifishers with the same float plan are invited to hale us on VHF Ch 16 (I answer to "Adrianna") for floatilla/buddy system purposes. Not that there will be any shortage of boats out there, but the buddy system is a good thing that far off shore. Expected departure times are 5a Fri, Sun, and Mon. 8-9a on Saturday.

Death to the flatties!!
