WickedWent out with LIVELINES last night, fished southend of Texada, picked up a 16 lber on the spackle back hoochie at 157 feet. It was slow after that so we went back to Epsom and had nothing until we thought we had a shaker. Popped to clip and set it to bring it in, and it slowly started to peel line. After a slow long run, started to gain on it and got it to the boat. 45 lb Hali. We just started laughing and high fiven. Unreal.
I think Fred Baldwin would be a contact. I'm not entering. Have to get my boat floating again this weekend.Who is the contact for the Garden Bay fishing derby this year? There isn't any info on it. I know it happening this weekend. Is the registration happening at the pub on Friday night?
So you can show up and pay there?Registration and Calcutta auction on friday evening at the pub. It's on their website's calendar, should be able to call the pub to confirm.
I'm not sure where you are going out from, but thats a long run from our area. Grant reef is a large area, with tons of spots or contours to fish. I usually look for boats at first because they've probably done all the work and found bait. If not hit the contours and follow them and until you find what your looking for.Gonna head over to grants reef tomorrow but never fished it before. Anyone have any tips or been that was lately? Fish contours on east or west or the shallows early evening etc?
Thanks in advance.

Where is "grants reef"?Grants is lights out right now, but I'm at home with a 3 month old and a 3yr old so I'm not in the action.
