Anyone know any boat storage places in Rupert to keep my boat for May and June? I usually keep it at a friends place in Terrace and haul back and forth but would like something closer to Rupert. Any suggestions?

Is that the recycling place or different place?

Hey Bryce. Any word on potential closures this year? You seem to know before anyone

 

[Confused]

June 1-15, 1 per day.....June 16-July 15 closed.......July 16- 31 1 per day.
This is the preliminary recommendation. Could change 100 times between now and then. But probably won't deviate much.

Anyone seeing any Chinook around humpback or Avery? Or anywhere else? Might get a chance to get out tomorrow. Was out last weekend and nothing but a little 4 pound chinook near Tugwell.

All 3 have been decent
Was a little slow all around today from what I’ve heard
