This was my fish bag at the end of the day. More'n 10 fish in that pile...

I vacuum sealed 10 of them for my wife. She took the other 10 (from Anthony) to work to share with friends... who donated $75 to my next fishing trip. 🍺

Lotsa good eating right there.

👍
What time is dinner?

Nice!

Dinner was awesome.. Al fried fish and Opie had 5 salsas for the tacos.. a meal for kings.. which we were at the time.. 😟

One time back in junior high I snuck into the girls locker room.


Not sure what sparked that memory. But there it is.

funny how a smell can trigger memories....#-o

All the same species?

The one at 3 o'clock appears to have different jaw line.

Just wondering, not familiar with lefty coast fishes.

Vermilion rockfish are bright red. Bocaccio, also known as salmon grouper, are the darker ones with the bucket mouth. I think I may also have a copper rockfish buried in there... or I put it in someone else's bag.

Rockfish part of the snapper family, now we are getting somewhere.

Snapper and grouper very tasty.

Nice haul!

I really need to retire and join in on the fun....

You really do... I would put you up in my house, and I'm sure Al would do the same. Make the trip this summer... we'll make some fishing videos, brother.

Thanks Shawn but gonna have to take a raincheck for this year. Daughter is due in about 2-1/2 weeks and already have Vegas planned in October. But next year is w-i-d-e open. 👍
