While driving North to Albion Bay

[Sea Weed]

We are on vacation and heading north. somewhere between Bodega bay and Albion there was a barn on the beach side that looked like a kayak convention. It was some kind of a special event pulling a 5th wheel makes it hard to check things out. I;m wondering since it was Oct 1 st if there was a special event going on. I thought I saw a sign but couldn't read it in time. Looked to be 50 yaks. And if they were fishing and there was a pot It would be one hell of a pot. By the way I had to leave the yak at home. now regret leaving it as I knew i would.

You passed right by me Sea Weed.  That was the 2011 Red Barn Classic kayak fishing tournament.  I showed up around 1 PM to watch the fish come in and see some friends.  The Barn was painted white a few years back. 
Weak fishing for about 58 entrants (double from last year) still produced some limits, a 20# salmon and a 36.5" lingcod.  Some of the best food ever!  Kayak Jack had the fish taco stand going, Korean short ribs (white guy), Asian spring rolls (authentic), BBQ oysters, a whole lot more and a desert bar like a bakery counter.  Jonesy grilled a slab of fresh steelhead from the Smith river and Al whipped up an AWESOME white sea bass ceviche that disapeared fast.  All in all, a great weekend of kayak fishing community.
