Oh just in Beecher Bay, the gentleman I bought the boat off of last year had it moored out there and I enjoyed running for 2 minutes and being able to fish. It spoils a guy after hauling the boat all over!

Thanks Sammy, I am going to try to sneak out on Saturday before noon for a few hours. May at least get some nice pictures of some of the derby guys with their monster fish coming in!
Good Luck to all in the Derby this weekend!!!

Out today from 8:00 to 12:30 taking 3 guests from Sweden out. Saw guite a few fish caught (two boats had double headers). One of the boats netted both fish which appeared to be ~20 lb. each. We hit 3 fish at ~9:00, 11:00, and 12:30. The first and last were wilds of ~12 and ~20 which we released, the middle fish was a hatchery 6 lb. Back at Cheanuh an older guy was fileting two springs that each had their adipose fins cut off, you've got to wonder!!! Another boat that pulled from the launch area released a ~30 lb. wild and caught a 7 lb. to keep. Definately some fish out at Beecher to Sooke.
Out Sat and Sun in the derby.

Hey Lip and Sammy,
Im heading out late tomorrow morning to the trap shack if you guys are around. Hopefully we get to snag a few nice ones.

Suck me side ways....... I blame my crew.
I lost one. Only one good head shake so I am not to blame
Fished 9:30-2 at the rock... lost two outside and two up tight. Got a 15.
One of the guys lost two screamers, flashers an all, heavy fish. Good thing it was his gear.
Back out tomorrow. Taking a ruler for tomorrow cause I aint sayin don't touch the F'n reel again
And thx Sammy...was a great day.
