    Vancouver Boat Show 2024

    Well,had a look at the boats on offer at the show ,mainly the tin boats around the 26' mark. Have to say was unimpressed by what was on sale for the asking price. The layout of some of the boats was pretty dismal ,especially inside the cabins ( look at the Thunderjet 26' for over 400k) So my...

    Single or Double Hook Hoochie

    Thanks for the info. Any idea where I could read that for myself (can’t find it) as there seems to be a few of you who are pretty sure that more than one hook is ok when not using bait.

    Single or Double Hook Hoochie

    Well, I am glad you say that it is not open to interpretation because based purely on what Jones attachment states then the first sentence is quite clear cut but if you have other info that states (outside baitfishing) I can use more than one hook then could you kindly point me in the right...

    Single or Double Hook Hoochie

    If I read that as written then it states one hook attached to a fly or artificial lure. I asked the DFO last year if my set up was legal. It consisted of a plug with a trailing treble used for dragging the bottom. He went away,came back with his bible and said that he was ok with that as long as...

    Look's about right -it's where the commies pick up their ice at the dock-big sign on building saying 'ice'.

    Island Fires

    It'll be interesting to see if the Province will fund an alternative route or just sweep it under the carpet if everything eventually settles down. Just consider yourself fortunate that you don't live here as it's not going to be a lot of fun this fall/winter when the weather sets in.

    Northwest Aluminum Craft, what do they ride like?

    The easiest way to find out without bugging Doug would be to send an email. He or Sarah will get back to you. I know when I took delivery of ours a couple of years ago he was talking about retirement in the not so distant future so I wouldn't put it off too long. Incidentally,I never found...

    Sea Runner 190 or 210?

    I wouldn’t let the idea of solo launching be the deciding factor on boat choice. In the beginning if you find it too stressy then there are always folks around more than welcome to give a helping hand. Also,as they say, practice makes perfect.At the marina there are lots of guys who launch...

    Sea Runner 190 or 210?

    Used to have a 220 sea runner.Opted for a drop curtain instead of a bulkhead and didn’t regret it.The drop curtain allows you to have more open working space to play with .Problem with a bulkhead is that it basically splits the deck area in two. It’ll boil down to personal preference if you have...

    Scotty HP Digital Counters...They Keep Dying....

    If you call Scotty and tell them that you want to mount additional manual counters they might send you a template as to where to drill the hole in your lid ,along with drill bit size, plus mechanical counters and knuts to attach them. They done that for me a couple of years back without any...
