Lol. You'll end up snapping the other side of that wishbone and only have one drive actively steering. Be careful. Could end up damaging more parts.
Oh no, it's 100% already broken right off. I do only have steering from one side.

Don won't call me back!
 
I've heard that we should troll fast for coho, but isn't that a bit much?
I’m in neutral….!

Just for fun, I stuck my nose out from False Creek, went out as far as the sand barge and just watched the action. My goodness, they are still renting those Glastron boats in those conditions. Pretty crazy out there.

I'm seeing contradictory wind reports for tomorrow. For the most part it shows a not too bad day. Am I missing something?
 
I'm watching it closely and it looks ****** tomorrow too. Friends in 3 boats headed for Pender harbor today, 24, 28 and 30'. The 30'is tied down in gibsons, the 28' made it but beat the **** out of the boat and the 24'is back in Vancouver. I'm expecting similar weather tomorrow until later afternoon.

Call about the sling at the marina you will have to schedule to put in and pull out. Like stated above the park has a launch but they have a college kid summer help that works both parks on the point so he doesn’t have a lot of time to constantly scrape the ramp after every high tide- if you have a large boat I wouldn’t try it but anything 20’ ish and under with a diesel should be no problem.
Pt. Bob report of conditions. Not bad. Ramp no good for most though. Wind and tide...lumpy.

That's a center console coming back....anyone here's boat? Looks like a big painted aluminum.
 
Went out yesterday. Tried to head for South Bowen, but it was getting pretty snotty so tucked in behind Pt. Atkinson. Fished the fisheries to PA area for the morning and early afternoon. Didn’t have the crazy action others were getting out at S. Bowen and the Hump, but did scratch up a couple small hatch cohos. Released a nice 70 cm spring and a couple undersized springs. A few other hits that didn’t stay on.
 
Went out to get a quick fix last night. Launched at McD beach at 6:00pm. Lines down at south Bowen at 6:30. Fish on immediately. Played over a dozen fish in next two hours. Lost many playing them especially with two double headers.
Kept two Hatch Ho’s. All depths and all on hootchies. Water laid right down. Magical couple hours
