islander, your PM inbox is full

I tried to respond to your pm about the fishing gear, but your in box is full.

Boat is SOLD. Gear is sold as well.

I have decided to sell my 14' Lund SSV and associated fishing / crabbing gear. Details are as follows:

Boat is a 2002 model. ...

Thanks Paul. That sounds like a good resource

Ripper,

Based on my experience launching a 14 foot Lund at Ambleside, I think you would want at least and 8 to 10 foot tidal height. For me with a light boat, its no probs at all. But with a...

Good work Peahead! I saw this and couldn't just do nothing, so I fired this letter off to Keith Ashfield, Minister for Fisheries and Oceans (also posted on HBC):

The Honourable Keith Ashfield,...

I really didn't see them checking for clipped adipose fins prior to bonking, kicking, squishing, suplexing, atomic drops, camel clutch, etc....

Well it's nice to see that they at least segregated the wild coho from the hatchery fish...What's that? They kept the wild coho as well?

Then what the eff are the regs for? What's that? Oh......

Thanks guys. Will try it out tonight and see if that helps.

Hey all.

A little while back I had to replace the tilt arm shaft on my outboard (and a few other small parts) due to trailering incident. Since then I've found that it takes quite a bit more...

If the four parking spots are full, you can park on the road along the north side of Bellevue Ave (across the tracks), facing west.

I was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to lemme know the best method(s) for fishing the lower reaches of the Fraser for springs. My previous experience on the Fraser has mainly been bar...

That was the plan. Change speeds, and when going faster, drop the bucktail out the back.

Hmm.... so I guess the coho in the Cap are taking the Lion's Gate then.

Heading out tonight after work. Longest day of the year, so should be a nice night with the light winds forecast.

Gonna work the Cap and West Van area. One DR for springs / coho, and gonna try...

Why does this guy still have a commercial license, or license of any kind?

Man, that contest must have been held quite a while ago, 'cause Michael Jackson is still black while eating popcorn in the above video.

So, after going through all the kind advice, I got out on Saturday to give it a shot. Ended up getting out a little later than I wanted, and the one critical error was launching at Cates Park in...

I'll be out there in my red 14' Lund on Saturday, weather permitting. Getting excited and looking forward to putting all the good advice I got into action for the first time.

Can't get out there...

Seafever, thanks for the photos. I can see what you were talking about. Cool looking set up, and that's a busy looking boat man!

Lot to consider here with all the great input. Am gonna try the...

That's all good stuff. Thanks fellas. I really like the idea of the planer out the other side. I've used that a bunch of times in the Skeena.

Took the boat out for the first run of the year on...

Guys, that's good stuff. Thanks a bunch.

I think I'm gonna try the gunnel mount DR, mounted near the rear bench, with a boom of at least 24". Also gonna go with the prop guard; the last thing I...

Good advice guys thanks.

Pippen, or your alter ego, MB_Boy, I think we've chatted on HBC (My use name over there is "Angus"). Howard did give me some great advice.

One thing I do know, and...

Thanks guys.

Eman, does that mount not put a lot of stress on the hull and gunnel, resulting in any kind of metal fatigue? I was thinking of getting Scotty's 1080 DR, and do you know if that will...
