We had a great Ocean Fishing trip on the 13th of October. The trip was lead by scout leader Alex Sholtz. We went rock fishing off of Pigeon Point. Everyone had a blast.
    We started by spending the night at San Pedro  Valley County Park in Pacifica. We got there early, giving us lots of time to play football and relax. We had a fantastic salmon and potato dinner. We also had asparagus for dinner followed by a fire and marshmallows. We got to bed pretty early because of the big day ahead of us. We go up early, around 5:00. We drove to the dock and left the Half Moon Bay Marina before 6:00, it was still quite dark. We spent four hours fishing. Everyone caught at least two fish. The fish we caught where rock fish, ling cod, and Cabazon. Some scouts caught as many as 19! I caught five, which my family and I enjoyed that very evening. Last time Troop 57 went Ocean Fishing, almost everyone got very seasick and had an unpleasant time. This year, we only had one person who got sick. I had a great time last year but think this year’s trip was even better. 
Over all I would highly recommend this trip to anybody. If you have any questions about that trip that I have not answered, please feel free to ask
