Day 37 - post Liverpool disappointing season opener Echo Lake loop with Sean

 

[Frank]

Day 37 and sadly, another set of hood loops. Life has been getting in the way.
No cable or internet since yesterday, Verizon says Tuesday the earliest. 😡
Ran out of cell data so off to Verizon to get a new plan.
Finally got out just before dark, luckily I charged my lights. Oh, and I came within 3 dt of running over a skunk….didn’t phase him in the least thankfully.
No pics so I added one of my beeky boy Bruce.

Ling cod. I caught a keeper on saturday. They have to be between 30 - 40" or over 55". At least in this area.

PS fun fact - my nephew who was on the trip lives in LA now and has gone out fishing for them many times. About 20% are distinctly blue, even their flesh is blue. But it turns white when cooked. Very good eating.
