used to paint the names on fishing boats in Eureka $400 a pop and free fresh fish and crab...petrale, flounder, salmon.....best seafood on the planet....I remember when the surfer got attacked by the great white at Camel Rock and it took him down 15 ft and let him go...he said he was looking right into the sharks eye as it took him down...said it was like a religious expeirence.....LOL.....the guy went back to surfing C-Rock a month later...crazy folks up there.....

I used to live and surfing in H-County in the 80's-90's....south & north jetties, patricks point, camel rock, sheltercove, and in front of the Lighthouse Ranch in Loleta....last time I surfed was out at L-house Ranch clean 15 ft offshore glass off barrels....just me and the seals....swell kept getting bigger and sun was setting....perfect day till I almost drowned on a 20 fter....wake up call....LOL....one day I'll get back to Humboldt......best place I ever lived....

Yeah, and he made it look easy.  Had to be risky though...

[PetesBloodyHand]

Yo cuz. Is that where we went years ago and filmed the seal fighting the gulls for the packet of salmon?

[HumboldtMike]

Hey Cuz. Yep, that's the place.  I should put that video up too. What's going on? Later.

[HumboldtMike]

Thanks for the comment. And, yep, those crabs are definitely worth more than the crabbers get for them.
