Capt. John, Afishinados Charters
AVALON, CATALINA ISLAND – One of the great things about living on Catalina Island is that you meet some very interesting people who have decided to make this rock their home. You can’t spot them by the cars they drive or the shoes they wear, or even by their choice of tie. Since we all tend to run around in our flip-flops and shorts with our Catalina shirts, it is sometimes difficult to get a read on the people you meet, which means you have to talk with them to get to know them. That is kind of novel in today’s world.
Sometimes we meet these folks because our friends just know that we would get along, sometimes we meet them at mixers, or meetings, and sometimes it is just by chance. In a town this small, it is always amazing to me how many new people I come across in the course of a season. A couple years ago I had a charter with the Busch family; very nice people who love visiting Catalina. They wanted to fish a bit, cruise a bit and perhaps snorkel a bit. Sounds good, let’s go.
