Fishing Sat Feb 3; Scout Sunday Feb 4

Hi All,
Two topics in this post:

  • Fishing trip (7ish-10A Saturday)  
  • Scout Sunday (10AM Sunday)



Fishing Trip - 7ish-10A Saturday, McAlpine Lake
The fishing trip is Saturday at McAlpine Lake on Highway 101 just North of San Juan Bautista.  While it is a fully stocked lake, plan to be there before 9:00 as the fish will generally stop biting around 9:00 to 10:00.

We will be at the lake from 7:00 am till 10:00 am. 
Please go to the blog and sign up on the attendance spread sheet.
Cost - $35 adults; $25 youths

Catfish can be tricky, an experienced adult will handle taking all the fish off the hooks.

Some good suggestions for bait are lures, worms, and PowerBait. 
The new trout will like the PowerBait and lures best. 
Coming at 9 or later?  Worms will work better on the catfish.
Cost - $35 adults; $25 youth; $15 if you're not fishing


Things to bring
  • A plastic bag or old cooler for the fish.
  • Small lure for the fishing line.
  • Food and or snacks for you and your son.
  • Water for drinking
  • Gloves if you think you want to touch the fish without really touching one.
  • Worms, can be purchased at the bait and tackle shop.
  • A sliding sinker


Scout Sunday - 10AM Service Church of the Good Shepherd
Scout Sunday is February 4th. 

Scheduled near the Boy Scout’s birthday on Feb. 8, this is one of 3 days celebrating the connection between Scouting and our faith-based chartered partners.


Our charter organization is the Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd.  If your scout wishes to participate, scouts should attend in uniform and a pair of blue pants. The service starts at 9:45.  Please reach out to Al with any questions.
