We keep a boarding ladder lashed beside the cabin. If you don’t have that, you could use your stern tie up line by tieing the un attached end to your midships cleat with the rope looping down into the water so that the person in the water can put a foot on the rope and use it as a step.
Nice! I’ve been making bagels this year as I have trouble finding a good bagel to buy around the Western communities in the Victoria area. I feel like my cold smoked spring salmon is excellent (yes I’m bragging here!) and I love a good bagel loaded with lox, cream cheese and pickled onion but I...
Rave reviews using this recipe. I thawed a whole black cod which was too much for my crowd(4 people) so I dropped half the marinated fillets off at a friend’s place who has been going through a tough time.. (In and out of the hospital.) Both his family and mine thought it was fantastic. I will...

It was a bit choppier today and the fishing was somewhat slower but we came home with 5 fish off the Head. The weird part was of those 5, 4 were hatchery and only 1 wild. Just the opposite from yesterday.
I went out solo from 7:30-10:30 off Beechey. Lots of fish to the boat and I ended up with 1 wild and 2 hatchery. I haven’t been out for about 10 days (family obligations) and I didn’t have a good idea of the current size of the wild, so I kept one about 6 lbs and then regretted it as I was...
