you guys should meet half way at Miracle Mile Deli!

This will be an on going review INITIAL IMPRESSIONS: Been on the hunt for a fish kill bag and finally found one, Opah (https://opahgear.com/). The biggest flaw of them all is they leak. Read through tons of posts and watched vids and finally decided that Opah was the one to buy. Now the question, which freaking size. I watched their videos on YT and tried to "imagine" and finally decided that the Fathom 5 Deep was best for me, see sizes midway down https://opahgear.com/pages/owners-manual. I went for the deep model to allow to pack the top with ice for the drive back to AZ. figure gas stop is an ice top of stop too. This size will get me a few good tuna and yellowtail and I can store them in the bag for a few days whole, until processing at home is complete. I wanted to bring whole fish home to make more sashimi and the fish needs to kept nice and cold. My buddy uses another bag and bring his home this way, but his leaks. I finally broke down and made the purchase direct from the manufactures website, was cheaper than buying from Amazon. A week later a large box shows up and it was play time. Got it all unpacked and figured why not test it out and fill it up. I headed out to the drive way and filled it up and thought, dang, this things is a nice size tub, I can sit in it, no leaks. The bag is a solid built tank. Straps and handles are solid. The insulation is 2 inches thick and well yah you can roll it up, kinda, but it does work. It is not small. But to fit and carry large tuna whole, heck yah, this will do the freaking job just right. It does come with some small builtin straps to cinch it all together when you roll / tri fold it up. I didn't measure, but rolled/folded it was about the size of a 55qt cooler. but opens up to 60lx30hx18w. Have a fishing trip coming up this weekend, will see how this works with carrying fish and storing for processing. I will be using this for hunting and storing quarters as well. Will update review as time goes on.

Didnt use on my trip, juat filet and ate. I will be sharing the bag with friend for an antelope hunt and for future deer and fishing trips. Will continue to update.

Chandler wants a permit for everything, take out the trash, clean out the recycleables for them ans sort it out for them, basically make the Citys job easier in all ways.

Adam look at buying a Sirui VA-5 head and the Sirui N-2204SK US tripod. Keeps the BTX 95 Solid. I use mine with the Outdoorsmans Arca mount. Andrew

Way cool, i need to do a trip to Alaska one day.

Back from the trip. Booked https://cobaltsportfishing.com/. We met the boat at Fisherman's Landing. Captain Ted introduced us to the crew and fist thing gave a safety speech. Here is the boat, AED, First Aid, fire ext, man over board etc... First 6 pack that did all that, was very comforting. Boat was very clean and had a mini fridge for drinks, Coke, Diet Coke, Sprite, Sparkling canned water, bottled water. Nice assortment of chips, cookies, mini chocolate candy, beef jerky, trail mix, and granola bars. Coffee was on about 5:30am and had assortment of muffins and fruit. Breakfast was an egg dish with potatoes, sausage, cheese etc.. eat it in a burrito or a cup. Was really good. Lunch was sandwich turkey, cheese, bacon, sprouts, ham on a large croissant. Came with an apple, potato salad and an 2 pack Oreo cookie. Presented in a boxed lunch style. Bunks were clean and well they are boat bunks. We talked options on the way to bait, ie., what he and the fleet were seeing, options etc... We decided to head down just past Ensenada. Got some killer bait at the barge and headed south. On the way down, ran into thunderstorms with rain, thunder and some very cool lighting. We woke up on the grounds and started the morning out trolling and looking for fish. Picked up a Yellowtail on the troll on a small piece of kelp, ended up fishing it and pulled out a few good sized YT. Kept fishing and looking for the bluefin tuna, very elusive. We kept looking for BFT but found more kelp paddies and fished them and would get some good sized YT. The hunt for the BFT was on and ended up getting a smaller YT on the troll. We found a kelp paddy the size of a 2.5 sized garage door and fished it with all we had, ended up killing the YT and had so much on deck it was a bloody deck and had to setp over and around fish. The crew had a hard time keeping up. We chased the BFT 3 different times, each time they would sink out from under us. We fished them and saw boils and tried to keep them around, but no luck. Our last BF stop was on a large breezer and we ended up with 1 20 lb BFT, the guy used 20 lb line and took him about 30 minutes to bring it on deck. There was like 9 fleet boats down with us and it was funny watching these larger boats chase the BFTs, it looked like an orchestrated circus. We ended up with 1 BFT and a full limit of YT, we ended up with some good sized YT, broke off some fat ones too. This boat and crew was stellar and top notch. We had a new guy that never fished ocean before, and they helped him out. The crew kept the deck clean between having lines out and was helpful each stop we made and worked their buts off. We had the owner (Capt Ted), Capt Lonnie and Trey the deckhand all helping us and had had hard time keeping up. They were on top of their game. The trip was an overnight 8pm to 8pm, they change up food options to keep it interesting. Food was great. I would recommend this 6 pack charter!

The bow has 3 bunks, master has double/queen and above that a single. A single bunk just outside master. Sleeps 6, 6 bunks, you could do 7 in the double/queen ie GF/Wife. We all had beds, the crew sleeps on the bridge. No sashimi / sushi on way back, crew cleaned, we slept. They other guys drove home (So Cal), I stayed the night, too tired to drive back to AZ.
