2023 OFFISHALL Vancouver-Howe Sound-Sechelt Reports Thread

[Brett83]

I was thinking of putting the boat in the water on Sunday first time this winter but looking at the weather forecast, getting completely 2 different forecasts. The government site calls for a Gale warning whereas Windy calls for calm with almost no wind. I guess I have to wait and see.

This has happened the last couple Sunday's. The environment canada has been more accurate

Sashimi!! It's a bit softer than summer fish, but daaaaaang, it's good. Gotta freeze if first, though.

Sashimi Grade: the worm-free recipe.

Sashimi Grade: the worm-free recipe.

Or at least the dead worm recipe

Egg-zactly. I feel sorry for the fisherman selling down at the Steveston dock because you hear them explain what sashimi grade means to every second customer that walks by.

Order that stuff straight from lighthouse. They have great hardware attached. None of those stupid shaggy clips that Gibbs uses. Nice thick flashers too

Not different they just actually spin and not that welded crap hardware you get with everyone else's

I've been pretty happy with their flashers. Their black combo is a nice flasher

Edit: looks like Gibbs must have taken lighthouse. #@$%^&!

yes, awhile ago as I talked to them about the paint chipping off the stainless Lighthouse lures, which is normal.

Extra soft or extra strong? Extra soft leaves too much fluff behind.
