Fishing Trip w/BA (Dad) And I

This is from our recent first fishing trip on Saturday, July 05, 2003.  It was my first time ever fishing off of a boat, and my first time fishing in about six years.  The biggest feature of the trip is when I caught a fish, a tomcod.  It is the first fish I have caught in ten years.  I also caught my first halibut, which was fifteen inches long.  Total, Dad caught 4 fish (3 Mackeral, not shown here and a Halibut sixteen inches long), and I 5 fish (three Tomcod, a Mackeral, and a Halibut).  Due to the Mackeral being too small, the Tomcod being poisonous, and the Halibut too small to be legally kept, we threw them back.  Aside from getting sea-sick on the way back, I had a great time.  Enjoy the pictures!
