Hey Gerry,
did you get out today in those brisk N.E. winds ?

nope, i bailed, woke up to 20 nt winds around discovery this morning and fast currents Would have been a lumby ride home when the tide turned back into it. Did you venture out ?

Out Saturday morning with my son from Prince George. A good easterly wind when we left West Bay Marina. Went to the flagpole and started fishing, passed over some large bait schools on the bottom, and picked up a 12 pounder. By the time we got to clover point the wind had switched to westerly and picked up a lot more speed so we fished back to Brotchie Ledge and came in. Fresh salmon for dinner yum yum..
