Nice try. An alternative launch is always worthwhile.

Fog in Dana was a B today. Well the fog and all the boats. One or the other is tolerable but not both. Kept us closer than we planned. Made it to about 3mi and the fog closed in. We waited it out and dodged ghost boats in the fog for 45min and a sucker hole opened up. Press on for a half hour w good terns n dolphin then the hole closed and we lost vis again and aborted.

Wind from the S to about 10 all morning. Real mixed seas. Tons of macks inshore tons of anchovy off. Scored a couple broomhandle cuders in the light green inshore to beat the skunk.

Lived to try again.
