1400 hectares from late yesterday to late morning today is really aggressive growth. Gnarly fire. Only thing getting this fire down will be cooler wet weather. Let’s hope the rains hit this week.

Similar morning, went 0/2 on a couple dandies due to shoddy work by my net man. But I guess that’s the price you pay going out solo before work. Nice to get some action though, seems like they’re turning up.

Is it an Australian camera?

Went out this morning and forgot my anchovies. Apparently spoons don’t work.

I fish out of China Creek but for now, not this year. Where should I launch from in Port Alberni, and is there good parking options there?

Clutsi Marina. Overflow parking by the ford dealership. Stay inside on the river watch for the green can bouys and red markers. Follow them until your in the open ocean

Better morning in the inlet, got our limit by 8:15. O15 pink hoochie at 61 feet and anchovy at 30/45 working best. Very smoky in the morning then the wind blows it out.
