Abalone Camp and Rv Park Fort Bragg California

September 2012 is the end of summer and now comes some really great weather. A Redwood Forest Retreat, Big Red Abalone Diving, and terrific dining are my plan for September 2012. RV friends and camping friends have been delightful. Mark from San Francisco provided generous portions of Wild Salmon and Zane from Oregon Loaded our camp with Dungeness Crab he caught in Oregon. Steven celebrated his birthday hunting Big Red Abalone. This collection of recent photos are provided for your pleasure. Thanks for your business and the fun you bring to camp. :o)

August 26, 2012 Fort Bragg California, the day is warm, clear and bright. A flat sea as the Pacific Ocean lived up to her name. We swam where we liked and basked in the sun.

These abalone are each over 8.5 inches... but only 1 is over 5 pounds.

The Big Red Abalone, are a good reason to camp or RV in Fort Bragg California. Hidden Pines Campground diver Mike, aka "Fort Bragg Borg"... is having much fun with other divers this year, as they are swimming wherever they please. Today offered warm weather, flat seas, clear skies, and high visibility. Big Red Abalone provided the reward for a very pleasant afternoon dive. Abalone dinner at Hidden Pines Campground after the dive was fantastic. The big dipper is now shining brightly, as I post the blog and  photos for your pleasure. The abalone photos also show some reasons why Fort Bragg Borg insists upon weighing abalone. Three abalone each 8.5 to 8.75 inches, had weight that varied from 3.39 pounds to 5.20 pounds. Five to six pound Big Red Abalone are a great catch, with six to seven pound Big Red Abalone often found too, when diving in Fort Bragg, California.
