Had to stop in at the Marlin Club, founded in 1931. It’s San Diego’s oldest fishing club. They sound a signal cannon shown below when someone brings in a Marlin to be officially weighed, which they did yesterday. The trophies are really cool, too.

I had the privilege of dinner tonight with Dr. John and Linda Elder, our San Diego hosts. Brilliant dinner conversation. We are very grateful for their hospitality.

Thanks for all the documentation of a fun National. Great to finally meet you in person. One correction, though, is that I'm the Reel Talk admin and Matt Wickham is the Web Administrator running the whole system.

Got a spare reel stamped "Pflueger" or a Montague Imperial?

What a great post; thank you for showing some of the faces behind the names. It would be fun to be able to attend someday.
