Had an epic- day at the Kitty hump on sun last-working around the 157 spot height probably 12 around the 62cm ish mark and 2 really nice 12 to 14 lbs, Very red-really prime. 250 ft on the rigger with a 20 lb ball and of course contouring up as we came close to the spot height. They had 6 inch...
Sun. picked up a nice 16 at Kitty hump-240 on 3;5 herring aide and a few smalls-lots of bait-alone at Kitty yesterday until a blue bayliner showed at 11. Lots of fish on the high tide-I got 12=my arm was tired all around 2-5 lbs. Very deep on a herring aid colored flashtail-by myself so only...
There definitely are halibut in our area but as I tell my wife no concentrations that would make you specifically target hali,s like on the WCVI. I catch 2 or 3 a year because I jig most of the time and they are an incidental catch. You might fish the last spot you caught one and not catch...
I have a front hitch and use it to push the boat into garage-much easier and can do it myself-no divorce worthy directional help needed/ Happy wife-happy life
Always wear my mustang inflatable if not wearing my mustang floater coat-least you can do for your family-no body is a pain in the a** for your estate and your family. They don't need the bureaucratic nightmare no body causes as well as your loss
You forgot -when fishing in a crowded area by yourself-try to look nonchalant-keep the net hidden-keep the rod tip low-try not to stand-never never stand or give any indication you have a fish on-do not scream or shout.-net it quickly-get your gear back in.-Stealth is the answer-then the crowd...
Back in 2018 while still guiding I had to replace my 2003 9.9 yamaha kicker. That is the one that was really a 15 hp. Boat Skagit Orca 24xlc. I was at Westview marine and had to get a zuk efi 20 -4 blade. I was pi##ed!! I thought it was overkill. quite the opposite-it handled the boat fine but...
I feel 3 things are wrong-(possibly)-I always use non-iodized pickling salt or sea salt. - you have a very low sugar to salt ratio-4 or 5 to 1 is what I use- alder sawdust--does it contain bark or any other wood such as a bit of commercial 2x4-you have to be careful if you are using long smoke...
I understand where you are coming from-had the same experience many years ago when I first got my 27 ft Orca-with a single main-had a large cabin in relation to over-all length so was very hard to steer in tight to a dock with wind. Embarrassed myself a few times until I remembered my driving...
Risk in buying?? Probably only if you pay too much. I have seen many 1106's and 2106's at prices that are pretty close to new. Remember to factor in new braid or wire (not cheap). Try to see them working-(usually not possible) but a general rule of thumb is-if the overall condition looks good...
Gradually getting the boat detailed-cleaning and polishing aluminum seems like a thankless job but now I get the fun of reloading her and getting her ready for the first jigging trip
Did my bearings on my 2 year old highliner trailer. 2 full fishing seasons on it with multiple launches. Needn't have bothered. The bearings were pristine-such a difference from my Road Runner. I attribute it to -Much shorter travel, lighter load, Stainless spindle insert and excellent quality...
Just because the gov't and their agencies are pushing it doesn't mean it's the best for you-just their agenda at the time.. If we all switched to EV's and heat pumps BC Hydro would be Hooped for capacity
I have had 3 heat pumps in the last 3 new houses-I hate them- we like to sleep in a cool bedroom and I found when I got up I hated how cool the air was coming from the vents. Took a long time to heat the house to 69F. Yes I liked the a/c aspect but I never had a problem with natural gas or wood...
