Brookings Road Trip - April 2008
 |
Somewhere near Rumsey on Highway 16 |
 |
Highway 1 north of Fort Bragg |
 |
One of my favorite stretches of road - Highway 1 just south of Leggett |
 |
A bridge under construction along 101 |

We booked a great guide to take us fishing. I highly recommend Captain Jim. Book him through: Sporthaven Marina |
 |

 |
Captain Jim with the first of many ling cod |
 |
A canary rockfish (an endangered species that was quickly thrown back) |
 |
A black rockfish |
 |
A cabezon |
 |
Another canary rockfish |
 |
 |
Notice how glassy smooth the water is. An unusually calm day out on the ocean. |
 |
A quillback rockfish |
 |
 |
California's finest entered Oregon's waters just long enough to throw their weight around. |
 |
Captain Jim pulls off a triple - 3 black rockfish all on the same line at once. |
 |
A young grey whale makes a second appearance. You can just see him on the surface along with some spray. |
 |
Ling cod put up a mean fight... |
 |
...have huge mouths... |
 |
...and sharp teeth. I now understand why Jim uses a gaff. |
 |
 |
 |
A double for Kristi. |
 |
Another cabezon. |
 |
The catch of the day - a beautiful vermillion rockfish. |
 |
 |
The grey whale makes its third and final appearance of the morning. |

Some guests were waiting for us back home. |
 |
 |
 |
They loved the apples we gave them. |
