Rodger Thomas Memorial Kids fishing trip
Today, we had a sponsored trip from the Golden State Salmon Association aboard the Hog Heaven we hosted the Rodger Thomas Memorial Kids fishing trip. When Rodger passed he allocated funding in his estate to be able to provide kids the opportunity to get out on the ocean and experience fishing! The kids had a blast catching 9 Halibut up to 20lbs and 12 Striped bass. We also caught and safely released a salmon it was at that moment that we knew Rodger was looking down on us!
