The SOCDC has been incredibly lucky. We have had two trips over to Italian Gardens near Long Point Catalina and scored Nine Giant Black Sea Bass on July 27th and Six Giant Black Sea Bass on our Raftup August 27th. In Rick Coleman's photo (from Island Time?) on a later date, you can see the sardine freeway that was chasing these gentile giants. When the bass turned, the fish looped and streatched out so it looked like the East LA interchange down there. What a wonderful experience we all had. -Konrad
