    Area 23 Bamfield 2 under 77 cm

    Are you for real? This regulation is about the fish and our future to be able to enjoy putting a hook in the water. The fact that small boats are out where they should not be is totally the decision of the people on board. I'm sure if you spent the money to go out the canal, you also took the...

    Downrigger cable voltage.

    Easy way to tell without having to use a voltmeter is; Look at fish you've caught and see if they come right in along side the boat or try to shy away. Chances are if they come right in and are comfortable, you are good. If they shy away and try and stay away from the boat you are hot.

    lowering minimum planing speed

    Put a set of 4 blade props from King propeller's out of California, on my Sea Ray 270 and made a huge difference. Used to have to sit on about 21 knots to run out off shore. Now can sit at 16 if rough and stay up nicely with 4 people on board.

    What happened to Nogs Needle.

    I have yet to see any reports on the Nogs Needle this year on the reports. Has the Sand lance taken over or is anyone catching fish on the needle?

    Daily vs Trip Limits

    It used to be that a person could transport someone else's fish with a letter authorizing them to do so. That changed in regulations last year. You now must stay in possession of your catch or risk loosing it.

    2015 Nanoose Bay / French Creek

    Fished Ballenas and Sangster the last 2 days. Caught a lot of undersize Springs and Wild Coho. Did manage to get a couple of keepers and Pink. But overall its not what I would call good fishing at present. Tried all kinds of gear but seems the white hootchie worked best at various depths.

    Radar Reflector

    I have installed mine on my antenna also. It is a Mobri made for sail boats. It is notched out both ends and fits well with zap straps. Also works very well.
