Back From Fishin'

The stereotypical sunrise shot, look across the bay from the western side. It was cold today, in the upper 30s, from mid 20's before dawn. Fortunately the wind was quite reasonable. The clouds and rain move in after a while, but with the boat's heater, we were plenty comfortable.

A pretty astonishing day, everybody caught multiple large, and many smaller fish. The fish were fairly easily found under working birds, but rarely stayed in on place long enough to catch more than one fish each. Pete's Hummingbird fishfinder and side scan sonar helped a lot too.
