https://comoxvalley.craigslist.org/boa/d/comox-avon-inflatable-obo/7729012897.html The only weak link is no oar locks though I think originally there were fitting in those wood blocks held in place by strips of hypalon I never get worried when I see patches on an Avon as long as they were...

I couldn’t find the Nanaimo listing…maybe someone grabbed it? There’s an Avon in Comox that the guy just wants out of his yard. Anyone with some hypalon patch material and some 2-part glue (2 part is important !!) could turn that into a very nice inflatable…I’d buy it in a heart-beat if it...

I’m surprised there hasn’t been a stampede to snatch up this rig: https://www.facebook.com/lindellyachts/posts/lindell-38-with-triple-suzuki-350s-an-absolute-beauty-and-a-beast-loaded-totally/2594549903923602/

The largest steelhead I’ve ever laid eyes on was a 39 pounder (chrome bright buck) …. It was in a freezer at a friend of mine’s house who lived on the banks of the Kispiox up in Hazelton. It was delivered to a plant in Rupert and ended up at the Smithers regional fisheries office where he...

In my neck of the woods guys have been doing that for years. Usually it’s a November and December show—- when the winter fish first start showing up. There’s a spot called Bush Point off Whidbey Island that’s historically been one of the hot spots. Lure of choice - Spin-n-glow on top of a...

If I got a bill for $ 731 I’d be doing back-flips for joy….. What is really aggravating —— the navigation limits stipulated in this policy preclude insurance coverage for precisely the waters of BC I go to…. “No coverage north of 51 degrees latitude or west of Hope Island” If I bring...

I asked an Alaskan guy that same question. He responded that the SE AK commie salmon harvesters are the “sacred cow” in Alaska (along with miners) and will probably get a green light for business as usual. I tried to do a quick internet search for new regulatory action but couldn’t find...

Those DF200’s are great outboards. I typically saw 2.3 - 2.5 GPH when running the Kodiak mid range. If I ever see that range of burn numbers on the DF300’s on my Commander I’d be doing back-flips for joy. But there’s a huge weight difference between the two boats (an easy 5,000 lbs) so that...

Just a heads up. I ran a 26 foot Kodiak for several seasons then traded up to the Seaport Commander 28 a year ago. The guy I sold the Seaport Kodiak to called me yesterday and mentioned he's selling his boat. It's a peach of a boat--has all the bells and whistles. Twin DF200's with 530...

I was waiting for those big Yamahas to kick up in the shallows…meanwhile, I love how the fishermen don’t get off their arses to help….wonder where that boat was built?

Pretty impressive …the take out is mind-boggling, especially for a boat that size and that heavy….. to get it done as quick as they did? Wow

I know it’s virtue signaling in the rec sector to hate on Alaskans for the way they manage their fish…the steelhead guys would have you believe that the Skeena steelhead have augured into the side of the resource cliff due specifically to Alaskan indiscriminate seining and gill-netting on mixed...

I’m guessing that Tom, if he’s as well spoken and thoughtful in person as he sounds to be in that video, will not take offense and would admit that part of the vid could be polished up a bit. The rest of it is outstanding and I sincerely hope it get’s seen by the right people and produces...

It has zero to do with what I chose to focus on or not to focus on. Zero. I am an independent third party critiquing what is supposed to be a video that was produced to change minds and promote public policy. I am simply playing devil’s advocate and I’ve chosen to insinuate in my own...

With all due respect Wolf, it appears you missed the point of the video. This video was produced very recently. It dates itself with the discussion of the improved upper Fraser chinook returns and the rock slide. The narrator makes a strong and well-spoken argument for augmenting hatchery...

Nice to see the chinook returns on the THomson but I was floored at the crappy fish handling you can see on ALL the boats in the video What were these guys thinking? When you see a guy holding a chinook in the water for almost a minute before it can swim away on its own steam, you already know...

QUOTE have you ever had issues of the cable cutting through the gangion ? UNQUOTE The gangion I use is 150 lb test. I double it over on itself when I loop it to stainless cable. The crimps seem to get beat up and require replacement long before the gangion. The line is tough and very...

I could never understand why mono ever entered into the conversation for downrigger applications when halibut gangion is available everywhere, is cheap, is easy to install, is easy on the fingers and hand when lifting a ball, and lasts forever. When I first started using it I agonized on how...

Lady Chatterley's revenge.....

The Otterbox and Pelican Marine bag offer good protection. I walk the beach with my dog every day and last year I found a Samsung Galaxy that was in a Pelican case. The phone was bone dry and powered right up. The owner was a paddler on one of the FN canoes that did a large paddle in Puget...
