    Was also out on Sunday. Have to admit this was the first time I've ever had to scrape the windshield of the boat before. She was good and frozen. Spent a good 8 hours on the water and tried everything from Salmon to Hali to Prawn and Crab. Picked up a nice little Lingcod, but sent him back down...

    Prawning help for a beginner

    So here I am on my first prawn adventure, not really knowing what I'm doing. I've got a trap, float, some yum yum bait, weights and an anchor,and yet nothing to show for it. I dropped my set up in approx 300' of water and let it soak for almost 7 hours. While I'm thinking perhaps I was in the...

    Put a good 6 hours on the new Hali Anchor set-up Trevor and the boys at Trotac helped me put together. OMG was it ever slick. I love it! Had the father inlaw onboard too and he was ready to try and climb over the bow to try and heave in by hand. It was a real “hold my drink and watch this”...

    Finally got the boat back in the water and washed some bait Friday night. No luck, but it didn't matter. So nice to be back out. Hali hunting begins tomorrow.

    2017 Victoria and Oak Bay Reports

    Wicked awesome morning on the water. Made the long trip out to go work the border south east of race rocks and man did it pay off. 15 min after putting the lines down and the bite was on. Hauled up 4 coho one of which jumped on the line before I could even get the rod back in the holder after...

    2017 Victoria and Oak Bay Reports

    Spent the evening out on Constance bank and then finished up on the waterfront. Tried to line up the solunar bite and got completely snubbed. All in all it was a nice time in the water with the fam, but a fish or two, ok maybe even just a few bites would have made it that much sweeter.

    2017 Victoria and Oak Bay Reports

    Well it was a lumpy day of washing bait today. Started off with a long haul out from Macaulay to Pedder Bay. Had a nice wind shelter there for most of the morning, only feeling it when we'd pass the gut between bentink island and the main island. Unfortunately not even a bite. Tried many depths...

    Sidney/ Victoria trailer shop recommendations

    You want to book in with Murray at Cap-it in Langford. He's an honest shooter and easy to work with. He just did my trailer when I was in a real bind... literally. Tell him Nick with the 24' Trophy sent you.
