    Sockeye Dumping

    Pretty sad how the Fraser sockeye fishery has been mismanaged and poached into such low numbers. 30 or so years ago we could commercial fish 3 out of the 4 yr cycle but due to what seems to be a blind eye can’t put a hook in the water now. Years ago there was stories of semi’s in Fraser canyon...

    Etiquette question: how close is too close off someone's stern?

    Kinda depends on depth fishing 50ft depth in close to 50+ boats, close seems to work for no grieve. Out jigging cod and a boat keeps coming up about 50-100ft away I say **** off and learn the area on your on! Which happened a few days ago

    Seastar steering

    No autopilot installed, but I do have the old auto pilot pump still hooked into the system. Perhaps I should remove it from the system and see what it is like, was going to do this in the next week or so.

    Seastar steering

    Hoping someone with knowledge of Seastar steering system can point me in the right direction. I have dual helm on the boat and the helm on deck is easy to turn but the one in the cabin is very hard to turn so makes for a long day. Any help or ideas much appreciated.
