Title: Starfire Sportfishing...Sat. Nov. 3 ... Morro Bay Landing
Post by: Big Tim on October 28, 2018, 02:22:12 AM
The Starfire is a new boat in Moro Bay. Captain/Owner Sal Ochoa & decky extraordinaire Mike Oddo are on online (previously of the Avenger). Nov. 3, will be a 3/4 day 8am to 4pm. I have fished with Sal & Mike before, and just like Captian Brad of the Endeavor I find them to be Top Shelf!

I'm going...R U?

I wish it was that easy! Trying to put this thing together is making me feel like an idiot! I'll give it another shot or two trying to put it together but if it didn't go well I'm gonna ship it to Alan to piece together and spool for me!

Come on guys !
7 spots left , weather should be fantastic .
No other takers ?
As BT stated Sal Rocha is a great skipper , the recent fish counts  reflect that.
Ling's are starting to come up shallow , maybe you could win the coveted Golden Carp award....
What say you ?
$ 75 will buy a spot next to the legendary BigTim !

I want to go so much but am not quite there.  I moved like a pinball on the deck of the SOA. Underpowered and overweight. Good thing I only hurt myself.  

Next Morro Bay trip I'm in.  

Have a great time guys.

I'm gonna bring a few extras but I'm limited on conventional reel set ups which I think will be easier for her to crank up heavy jigs all day using the rail.... I figure between myself and all the extra gear the crew usually brings I think we could outfit the whole boat....

Thanks for asking buddy! Looking forward to seeing all you fine gents one again
