With an absolutely flat calm gorgeous ocean, Capt. Bob decided to burn some fuel and try some of his favorite spots down at New Years Island below Pigeon Point. A lot of these spots will be closed when the Central Coast MLPAs go into effect after the regulatory process is completed, and Bob wanted to give our group today what might be the last chance in their lifetime to see New Years from a boat. We had several fathers and sons enjoying a day together, and the kids showed their elders how to lay the fish away. In addition to a good day of fishing, there were sea otters to check out on the way down and back and thousands upon thousands of jellyfish floating in a big patch, so many it makes a big white slick in the water. Not many bar casters onboard, but a nice 15 pound lingcod took top honors.
