More November 8th Aloha Spirit

Hi everyone...now that we've had our holiday party, I thought I'd go back to this post and see if I can finish it. What a great year of learning to fish with you!! Here were my thoughts in November:
I almost don't want to go back out too soon, because yesterday put a smile on my face that will last me through the week at least. What a gift to be out on the beautiful blue seas with all of you and on the Aloha Spirit. I felt like I was surfing along the waters as we cruised here and there. I SO enjoyed the day! Here are more pics from my camera. (Couldn't upload any photos...so I stopped writing...here's another try.)

Jake hoping for white sea bass...not today.
Sunset...what a gorgeous day that was! We live for November in California.

I finally had luck...after losing all the tackle and line a few times. Thanks Shawn!
Look, it's the Pac Dawn off to our left. I loved seeing them! What a gorgeous sunrise and spectacular glassy day on the water.
I just saw the photos printed in WON last week...fun to see my picture included.

and it was only topped by the great fishing in December. I didn't mind the cold...the fish were biting!!
This is why we get hooked on fishing so fast.
