Looks like fun. I didn't know Radon even made a 41!

It was a blast.  I believe that Captain Klein helped develop and finance the mold, and this is the first and possibly the only one so far.  He designed the boat to be everything that he wanted a boat to be for So. Cal fishing, and it is the best laid out and equipped boat of that size that I have ever been on.

Leave the gun.  Take the cannolis.

There are two things I don't like about fishing.  Getting up early in the morning and boats.  The rest of it is fun.

What gear did you use,,,,, ;D

Benni, I used a 16 oz. glow in the dark Octopus that had a head like a golf ball with a big wad of squid on my bottom hook, and just a big 10/0 hook with a whole squid on my top hook.

Thank you Todd.  I know that those are babies by your British Columbia standards, but they are nice lings for So. Cal.

That double header must have been fun.  Dominick

It was a blast Dominick.  I really thought that I had a big one.  They must have had some synchronized swimming training because they ripped some heavy drag a couple of times.   It was a long way up as we were fishing 400' with a fast drift so I probably had 500' or more of line out, and I was sweating that it would come unbuttoned all of the way up.

I wish that I was Brett, but I was using one of the boats outfits.

Nice job on double hookup of good eating size lings. Bet it was a fun fight. How deep were you fishing ??

Thank you Ted.  It was a long way up.  We were fishing 400' but it was a fast drift and I probably had 500' of line out.

Nice fish Randy, that's a heck of a pair!

Thank you Sheridan.  I wish that you were there.  You would love the boat.  Looking forward to fishing with you Wednesday.

Great idea of rails on the swimming platform.  That is one nice boat.  Dominick
