I have to go to Richmond for an embassy event this weekend. I will be staying with friends in White Rock. Was thinking I'd go over to the US and get some paint for my aluminum boat. Is there a marine supplier near the boarder or withing reasonable distance that I could buy 1 gallon of...

What is the best value for the money? Last summer as happens I did some solo fishing during the height of Chinook season. My current setup has a 6hp kicker tied by steering bar to my main and I steer by the wheel at the front. I did get a steering bar that lets me detach the bar quickly and I...

Hello, I'm taking the family to a group camping trip for a bunch of my son's school/classmate's get together . We are camping at Miracle beach and I was wondering if its worth taking my kayak and some light gear to try and fish. I can't tow my boat as I only have a car (I would LOVE to do...

Yesterday I helped out and towed in a boater who had broken down and was stranded floating off saxe point (Victoria waterfront) when his main motor broke down. He was lucky to be picked up by another boat outside the harbour and then I took him in tow inside the harbour back to a dock. Good...

A friend and I were out hali fishing down near pedder bay. The day started off pretty calm but then the winds came up and got nasty. We pulled anchor and headed back to the Victoria waterfront. On the way we heard a distress call on CH16. Report was of 2 people in the water after their boat had...

I like to give out credit where credit is due. I run two sonar displays on my boat and one is a Ti2. One day I had a problem with my Lowrance Ti2 where the transducer stopped working. The head unit still worked but was acting buggy. I looked up possible issues and figured out it was a...

Morning everyone, I was looking at the new Scotty R-5 Rod holders and they are apparently rated for light gear / 15lb test rods. I am wondering if anyone has used them for ocean fishing with the standard 10'6 salmon rods and 30lb test mooching reels. I am considering getting a set but the...

I saw the add on Facebook market place and decided I’d drop by. I got there around 1015 and it looked like a scene from a disaster movie! People were going in all directions and grabbing stuff. I picked up a few odds and ends but I was more amused by the chaos of it all.

I just want to send a quick shout-out and thanks to Foghorn fishing charters. Set some traps out about 1 week ago the gear got washed out to sea in the strong currents. I had gone past the spot a few times again to see if it was near there and no sign of my floats. I figured they had got...

Looking to trade for a smaller float. I know normally for a hali anchor system bigger is better.....but I want to know always store my float on the pod of my 18ft aluminum and would like to go down a size. Here is the NB 75 I currently have. I am using a 11lb claw anchor so this bouy is far...

Since my “DIY cutting table” post was such a hit and someone on here asked me put more details about my home made bbq I made out of a 50 cal ammo can (case) I decided to make a post with detailed pictures. I use this when trolling for salmon or while at anchor for Hali. When trolling it is...
