Just a simple question when down for a few days do you find it better to ice your lings whole then fillet when at home.

Now that they are dead, I'd put one in a teaser head and troll it.

That's what I do on short trips. Easier for keeping legal and fish comes out great. No slimey bags, just salt ice. Or I've now used Ukee Seafoods processing twice and only had to deal with iced fish from the last evening or morning when I get home. There's ice with a money box on the wall there.

cant read anymore of this 
Where is Hyson and where is Mara Rock? Sorry, I did try and look this up before asking.
Should see Mara Rk on your charts. See attached screenshot. Hyson is about 25mins straight West of the light house.

Got a late start with some kids today at 11am. They were having so much fun squiding the night before till 3am. Saw a few nice Spring and Coho from guys at the dock taken at Great Bear early in the morning. By the time we got there wind was already bad. Kids were turning green. Moved over to Foods but only had 2 bites to pop the pins. Called her quits for the day.
The morning bite in Ukee is on fire!
Had 6 springs in the boat by 8:15, nothing big but good eaters. Also got 3 Hali on the drift, and picked up 3 Rockfish for dinner.
Chinook were around Great Bear and Alley on glow white hoochies, Hali out at Lighthouse Bank on herring.

Nice haul. Good to hear. Taking out some friend tmrw morning.
The girls smashed fish today in Ukee! Took my wife, 2 sisters and a niece out this morning fishing around Florencia Bay. They went 7 for 11 on Chinook, with the biggest being 18lbs. Glow white squirt and brown turd hoochie was the ticket today. Sad to be heading home tomorrow. Not looking forward to the August **** show in Sooke.

Annual family trip to Ukee last week, always a treat, such a beautiful place. Got three nice Hali (119cm/112/99) out on Amphitrite bank on the back troll drift. 10” white Hali hawg with herring and a little Butt juice.
Lots of small herring bait balls this year hanging around Foods, Beg, Alley, Great bear and the Black Sea bass are all over them, Great fish taco’s. We saw them slashing at the surface multiple times. I just finished putting on a new anchovie in the teaser head and placed it in the water beside the boat,when the other rod went off, as I grabbed it, a black seabass smashed the chovie 3 feet from the boat, lots of fun for the kids. Blue flasher with white flash fly at 39 feet for the coho, lemon lime flasher with weegee copcar or green anchovie teaser head for Chinook 55 to 75’
Hearing aid flasher /spoon combo did well too. Big thanks to Ukee seafoods, always kind and professional service and there chip ice being available to the public everyday for a good karma donation is such a nice convenience.

Back home from our 3 days of fishing in Ukee.
Today was a chill 3hr morning taking the kids out Salmon fishing at Alley Rock. They went 2 for 4 on Chinooks, with my oldest daughter catching her biggest salmon ever (14lbs).
Glow white squirt was our hottest lure.
Can't wait till next year, only 365 days to go.....

Will be out Friday and Saturday… I’ll be going to Gaylord’s Bluffs and offshore if possible…. Other spots as noted as well. Can’t wait for the hunt. Bait is in the brine.

Out of Ucluelet? You're going to pass by lots of fish to get over there to those fish, no?
