Congrats on the great haul! That is a very cool rock greenling!

Ug! I lost two lings my last time out too... a little piece of me dies when I see them return to the abyss!

Had a great day on the Jetty yesterday, 4 lings, this being the biggest, a bunch of greenling and we ran into ResQ and several other WaLakers to boot! We lost a monster, pushing 25-30 pounds, the steel leader fell apart under the pressure. The was a bummer.

Yea, I got this one right after you guys left. I got another for my brother on a float a half hour later, then my dad hooks the monster. It was huge!

First surf perch! Great day. Lots of action. Cabezon, rock greenling, giant type surf perch and tons of red tail surf perch! The giant is the two fillets in the ziplock bag :) Roughly football sized.

Awesome surf perch. Been many years since I have caught any.

Since the thread hasn't been posted in all summer here are my pictures from my last Westhaven Jetty trip. Like a lot of you on this thread, I love the jetty!

Yessir. That jetty puts some good fish and chips on the table! Only made it out a few times this year, but everytime I do get out I have a blast!

I know this wasn't sport caught(caught about 1 mile north of Dutch Harbor, AK) but thought its a cool picture to show how big halibut can get, 119''. That's my dad next to it, he is just short of 6' tall, picture from a year ago.
