    How do i clean built in an aluminum fuel tank?

    Thanks for the all the ideas posted here , I'm going to go with gunner loves approach tho as the exterior of the tanks are excellent and it will b a major to remove them . As I said in my post I'm looking for a means of cleaning them without removing the tanks . If there was pitting of any kind...

    2017 Gulf Island Reports

    Fished this evening on the outside and had some action however 4 of 5 were undersizedand the only keeper was a runt that we let go . Algie was not bad but current was a real battle and kweeping line straight was a real issue but as the wind layer down the lines ran better as is always the case

    Gutting before filleting?

    If you're going to process the fish quickly there is no reason to gut the fish . They can still be bled out to keep the meat clean. I don't know too many people who gut there Hali or rockfish. Why would salmon be any different? I suppose it's just preferences but it makes sense to avoid any...
