Halibut opened on March 1st. Good news! Not really.
It would have been better for me if it opened on Feb. 1st - December 31.
1 per day and 2 possession, Good News! Not really.
2 per day and 3 posssession would have been better.
Getting the Rec quota increased to 15%, Good news. Not really.
20% or more would have been better.
My friend Bob was able to come to Bamfield for the weekend. Good news! Yes. We tried to Hali fish on the Saturday But the 4 meter seas were just a little to much for Bob. The effects of his stroke have left him a little unstable, and his stamina is not what it once was. We salvaged the day by running into the "back door " and getting a limit of springs bettween 6 - 17 pounds, with many small ones released.
Sunday morning found us right at the harbour mouth and 9 springs later we headed for the dock with out killing a single one, as we had done great the day before. 60 knot wind kept us off the water today.
Bob will be back in September.
Thanks to SFI, SFAB, WCFGA, James Lunney and others who have attended countless meeting and spent countless hours on behalf of Joe average Bob should be able to fish for Halibut in September.
