Sitka, what cabin did you have? I hung out quite a bit with Richard Steed back in the cabin days. They had the cabin beside Jumbo Davies. I often visited Alec & Taffy Merriman looking for tidbits of fishing info. Alec is still around but haven't seen him for more than 35 years I bet. Frank Frost passed away recently, he was one of the high liners from the Tugwell beach area and one of the first to fish Sheringham Pt regularly.

Ahhh now you are testing my memory....I think it was #25, third from the north end, next to the Mycocks. Lets see if you have a good memory.....you picked me up after my grad party in '83 and we went fishing off Otter, I remember you drank Kokanee and we caught a few springs........

I remember Jumbo and vaugley remember Frank. We used to chase the fish off the inside of Sheringham, but never off the point as it was just too big a water for our 12'....LOL. I used to do the streamkeepers for both Muir and Tugwell. Its kind of how I got into my career......

Good to know that Alec is still around. I cannot remember his sons name, but he was a school teacher in Masset for a while.

Good times back then!!!!

Cheers

Well your memory is better than mine. Geez you even remember what beer I used to drink. I have a more refined palette now and pick up Stella more often than not.
