Ordered a couple of knives from mikejonesknifeandtool and didn’t want them going through my chefs choice. Got a two sided diamond stone from him to sharpen them. Will admit there was a bit of a learning curve, and I’m probably still not that great at it compared to pros, but I like the challenge...

Man that’s an awesome fish! We had a couple of big bites at first light Sandheads, boated one, straightened a hook on the other, ouch Scratchy the rest of the day, bite here bite there, and softer bites that didn’t all stick. All on bait 40-70, didn’t try for sox. Really fun day with a bunch...

I’ve never seen so many anchovies in the gulf islands. Had the kids fishing off the dock in Long Harbour trying for shiners last week and they were catching anchovies one after the other out of schools of thousands!

I wouldn’t try and have an autopilot make course changes myself, and don’t know any pros who would, especially while fishing. It just can’t take into account wind, current, debris, traffic etc and would probably put a downrigger cable into the prop on the first day.

The back end of the brown one sticking up at the back of the box looks kind of like a custom one we had done in 1999’ to try and match the peanut butter hootchie….

I had a couple bites on this one

And this

Booooooo

I’m no outboard expert, but for most other boats prop fitting is an art. Weight of the boat, power of the engine, ratio of the gear, and then the wizard calculates his magic based on desired performance characteristics. Pitch is important, but so is cupping and the materials used. If it were...

I have an old yellow lamiglass in great condition. What a noodle it is! Not sure I want to give it up but if you really can’t find anything else….

Jigged around Collinson for a bit with the kids. Lots of small pinks, fun for them but not what I was hoping for! Let them all go.

Lots of teeny tiny chinook and a few teeny tiny coho near Georgina. One barely legal chinook, two were close, the rest WAY under.

If you are looking for Thursday’s forecast on a Tuesday……. It’s not an exact science. Environment Canada is as good as anyone for a couple days out, but let’s be honest, no one really knows.

Totally agree. Never saw a fish fudged to 30 from 29.5. Saw a lodge manager try once for some bigwig who wanted the pin, but was immediately shut down by the guides. It goes against the code and everything we stood for. Personally I no longer care how much they weigh, feels like those days are...

Good idea. @bonchovy charter boat has small hole-saw cuts on his HP covers to see the analog counters he has mounted underneath. The digital counters were still functional, and interestingly enough the deeper we went the more the digital and analog were out of sync. I was surprised he didn’t...

What a joke. Someone’s wearing big red shoes and I don’t think it’s the commercial guys….

Once again, The Tyee with the straight facts. lol

Pretty sure you mean you would use degree decimal minutes instead of degrees minutes and seconds? If so I agree I’ve never heard anyone out in the PNW use decimal degrees. Not that it wouldn’t work, it’s just not common practice here.
