    C Numbers, Stability Test & Insurance

    Rain City, when I did my SVCP-F several years ago the stability test was part of it. You had to do it or you didn't get the decal. Mike

    2024 Nanaimo Reports

    Hi folks, I'm back from the Desert and now dusting the boat off getting ready to go Prawn fishing. I have been on the DFO site for hours and they don't make it easy. I'm trying to figure out if there is any open areas for Prawn fishing around our area. Last year we were able to fish the...

    CR Bill, not sure how much money you want to spend? I bought this one from Lee Valley Tools five years ago and it is unbelievable. You can shave with any knife you sharpen on the T-8 Tormek T-8 Sharpening...

    2023 Nootka Sound/Esperanza Inlet Reports

    ebrench, that wind will not bother you fishing inside. The thing about Nootka is there is always somewhere you can fish. NW winds that are most common mean you can fish Wash, Eagle and the Light as they are protected by Maquinna Pt. The worst wind that we get is the dreaded SW of SE or...

    2023 Tuna Adventures

    This year we don't have a boat to go tuna fishing in. The 27 foot North River was sold and not replaced like it should have been??? We are looking at going out and want to know what charter boats go out of Bamfield or Ucluelet for Tuna? Thanks in advance. Mike

    2023 Nootka Sound/Esperanza Inlet Reports

    For years I use to hate having trails left on my screen. For some reason this year I just change the color every once in a while. It's funny how many passes you make when you are working an area with fish holding. Lots of fish moving inside after the rain last week.

    2023 Nootka Sound/Esperanza Inlet Reports

    Just got back after a few weeks in Nootka. It was painfully slow July 24 and 25 with all the rain. We fished hard with the rain bouncing off the water and butt-kiss. You know the fish don't like coming to the surface in all that fresh water! July 26th the wind calmed down and we got offshore...

    2023 Nootka Sound/Esperanza Inlet Reports

    Hi SeaSport, after suffering thru the worst fishing I have ever seen in Nootka July 5-8 it's way better now. July 6 and 7 evening fish, 8 boats left the dock at NIL and 8 boats came back SKUNKED. In 3 shifts Salmon fishing I pulled my gear 500 times as I've never seen as many weeds thru out...

    T25 kicker

    Brambles, I switched from a T9.9 to a T25 in 2017 and it was the best thing I ever did to my boat. The 9.9 did not have enough power when I was trolling offshore in the afternoons when the Westerly would blow 25 mph. I would have to motor on the big engine uphill turn around and then troll...

    We had a great trip in Nootka on the weekend. Put in the docks, boom sticks and ramp on Saavedra Island. Prawning was great with mostly Jumbos. Caught a 20 pound Spring and a few Ling trolling around. Look forward to this summer. Codfather
