    Halibut dispatching with lead?

    I most likely will get feedback on this but the question is why would anyone ever want bonk a fish alone shoot one? This is one of the most valuable resources we have and preserving the meat is of the utmost goal. It's proven that bonking imparts a tremendous amount of stress on the fish...

    2019 Nootka Sound/Esperanza Inlet Reports

    Yes, another season is behind us. Sad but true. This season concludes my 32nd year fishing Esperanza and my second season staying at Port Eliza Lodge. I can’t think of another area I would rather fish or a better, more affordable lodge to stay. The new owners Jim, Susan and Robert are the most...

    2019 Nootka Sound/Esperanza Inlet Reports

    Spoken well, just like a true fisherman. Regardless of what nautical line separates open and closed there are an abundance of places to not just fish but do some serious catching!! WCVI is a fisherman's paradise. Hope you have a wonderful season.

    2019 Nootka Sound/Esperanza Inlet Reports

    Hello, Welcome to the "Esperanza side". This will be my 32nd year fishing Esperanza so plenty of experience on the gravel roads, flats, dust, etc. I didn't see you mention where you will be staying. There is not too much difference between Zeballos and Tahsis regarding boating time to the...

    2018 Nootka Sound/Esperanza Inlet Reports

    Fuel is not a problem as you can stop at Esperanza at the church camp or in Tahsis at Westview Marina. Well worth the trip. The bite has been mid morning so you don't have to leave at dark. Perfectly calm water up Tahsis Inlet and out Esperanza to the coast. Hope to see you there.

    Diesel Boat Heater

    FYI ronj, only need to cut exhaust port. Interior air is sufficient. I believe I have a manual I could email you so you can start figuring the install if you want. Safest boat heat possible and dry heat.

    Diesel Boat Heater

    Merry Christmas. Great choice for any Northwest boat. Webasto and Espar are virtually identical. Planar and snuggler are Asian copies and less expensive. I have been a marine surveyor for many years and have installed and overseen installation of many of these. You can install yourself. Same...
