ok cart captains, i have some new logistical information.
The boat leaves from Ripley Light Marina. Park at the end of the La Quinta parking lot near California Dreaming. Use the closest access ramp, turn right, and go down the dock to the biggest pontoon boat you can find.
By the way, the boat will easily handle 10 carts and 30 people. please register, and add in the comment box, put “Morris Island Cart Captain”. please fill the boat up. it’ll probably carry more than 10…
Boarding begins at 8:30 am, and the boat leaves at 9:00 am.
it’s about a 35 minute ride out, which will give you some time to meet your Troops.
Low tide Nov. 12 is 11:45 am.
The drop-off location is the back side of Cummings Point, or what is left of it. there’s a deep channel there, and some of you can fish there. it’s about 30 minutes to walk around to the rocks.
Once tide turns, you will have another 90 minutes to fish, or you will get wet trying to get back past the point before tide gets too high…the Troops won’t care…
You should be back the dock about 3:30 pm, and please come up to Rivers Edge Marina for the best bbq dinner around.
All captains need attend the Captains Meeting Friday night (6-8). We have waivers to give you to carry for the Troops so they don’t need a fishing license. and we’ll have a box of squid to give you too.
Thank you for your support.
Will post a scouting report.
