Just curious if anyone is heading out Sunday.
I felt like a one legged cat trying to bury a terd on a frozen pond!

We are going to do back to back days on the Starfire....not sure how we will hold up physically. Two days in a row on the Pacific for a couple of land lovers could put quite a strain on the body. Looking forward to some great fun! Hope the big earthquake holds off a few more days!!

Glad to hear folks are going out. I'm gonna try to catch some walleye Thursday so I have some scraps for crab bait when we get in Friday. Gonna hit the docks Friday afternoon, hope the dang sealions are not around.
