Right now I'm planning on going both Friday and Saturday, but I have to say the forecast keeps deteriorating fast:

FRI
S WIND 10 TO 15 KT WITH GUSTS TO 20 KT. WIND WAVES 3 FT. SW
SWELL 6 FT. CHANCE OF RAIN IN THE MORNING...THEN SLIGHT CHANCE OF
SHOWERS IN THE AFTERNOON.

SAT
NW WIND 10 TO 15 KT. WIND WAVES 3 FT. SW SWELL 6 FT.

Several other boats are also planning trips - so you should have company.

SLIGHT CHANCE OF SHOWERS IN THE AFTERNOON.

I belive my boat Flying Fish is going out Friday. Probley in shore close bottom fish and halibut, who knows maybe salmon. Tuna are there but its a ride to get them.

I am planning on going but it is all weather dependent. We are planning on targeting halibut mostly but if the fish come quickly we will head out for tuna since it is only another 15-20 miles to were most of the folks were catching them last weekend, but that can always change. With the south wind it may blow a little more warm water in closer. I think we are planning on going out after the bar layes down maybe 7:30 or so...

Sporty in Deans opinion is breakfast for the Cool Cat. Eyeball will be applied prior to any attempt.

I was thinking of running out of the CR for butts/tuna on Saturday - got to keep an eye on the forecast tho... I dont know if I have Cat Balls like Bernie to go out at 4 AM style tho on a -1.6 ebb.

Shane, I don't like the dark either but I don't like 10 foot rollers a lot more. the likelihood of that is possible.
