I did maintenance today of my gear after a couple of weekends of fishing and having some breakage and failures. One of my items to do was replace the original hooks on some spoons. This is a Gibbs Cop Car after only one fish being hooked on it. I would like to say this was due to a tyee size...

Just putting some feelers out there. I towed my boat to Kelowna earlier this summer. I kept it there with the intention of using it off and on throughout the summer. However, the fires have changed plans a bit and I won't be out there for any extended time again. It is in storage right by the...
Going to try fishing Wood Lake for the first time and have a couple of questions. First where is the best place to launch a Campion 542? Not a fan of gravel launches. Second, what part of the Lake should I start fishing? The north or south end? Or maybe near the middle?
I am thinking of getting a second small Jon boat for freshwater fishing. My Campion is too big for some of the smaller lakes I want to fish in. With the 10HP restrictions of many lakes, here is what I am looking for:
14' Jon boat, preferably 40"-48" bottom width
8 or 9.9 HP 4 stroke engine...
I am suspecting I have water in my fuel. Here is what happened this morning. My boat has been sitting idle in my garage for about a year. I did add fuel stabilizer. It has about 2/3 full tank. This morning, I decided to take it out for the first time this year for a test run. The main engine...
We are thinking of spending a week on Shuswap Lake in mid July. Any hints to fishing the lake? Where are the best spots to fish. Troll along the shoreline? fish deep? It's a big lake to explore in only a week and fishing will just be a secondary activity for us.
I'll be bringing my boat along...
I need to replace bearings and possibly hub for an ez loader single axle trailer. Mine went kaput on me today. What is the best way to ensure I buy the right sizes? Do all ez loader single axle trailers use same bearings and hubs? I just need the parts. I have someone who can help me change them.
I had a problem with my kicker on my last sockeye outing. After running for a while, it would just die. Then it would not start up again. After trolling for a while on my main, I decided to try the kicker again. It started up a ran fine. BNut after trolling for a while it did the same thing...
Anyone know what time the No 2 Road boat launch opens up these days? Looking for alternatives for MacDonald Beach for today. Looking to head out now and Vanier is low tide this morning.
I'm in whistler for the weekend. I brought my fly and salmon spinning rods. I want to sneak out for a couple of hours for some fishing. In willing to drive as far as 30 minutes only from here. As far as Pemberton to North or Squamish to south.
Where do you recommend? A couple of other...
I am thinking about taking my boat to Sunshine coast for a few days. Anyone have any thoughts on launching at Coopers Green boat launch? I have an 19' Campion Explorer 542.
I'm preparing a couple of halibut spreader bar rigs for Nootka. What do most people use for the leader? Mono versus steel? 100lb, 130lb or 150lb? I see YouTubes with tandem singles, I've also see trebles, and I've see singles. Any feedback is appreciated.
I have a pair of the older Hella plugs for my Scotty 1100 series downriggers. Every year I have to take them apart to clean and sand them or redo the wire connection. What happens at some point is that my connection eventually becomes very unreliable and I have to reach down and push the plug...
I took the boat out today for the first time this season and dragged some tackle for a couple of hours just to checked out if everything was working after being in storage for winter. I found a short laundry list of things to fix on the shakedown cruise. Here is what I found and what I think I...
As the title says, where are some of the recommended places that can service a trailer in the Vancouver area? I have a single axle EZ Load and needs some brake work done.
