This kayak is not designed to cater to all forms of kayaking. It is for the serious fisherman.…

trees, moss, and cherry trees. The cherries that are on Catalina Island are different than what we are used to. The cherries on Catalina Island have a very big pit and very little meat and the cherries that we eat have lots of meat and a very small pit. This is because we like to eat the meat not the pit, and animals like birds and squirrels like to eat the pit, not the meat. If you come to this camp, believe me, you will not be bored. There are so many things to do, for example, kayaking,…
