[bigredsnapper]

Was gonna head out then I heard the rain pelting down then I saw the gale warning then I checked the tide....anyway maybe tomorrow.

 

[Charter Tofino]

Greg didnt get enough fishin in i changed my flight till tuesday. Maybe another kick at the can tomorrow? Here is that sealion that had the boom shift on its fin and pin it. Died with its face in the water and the other sealions seemed to avoid it.

$%&@!y way to go out. Good pic.

 

[bigredsnapper]

I just got back from the marina and the b-boat was still there. I'm heading out with a buddy from Alberta if you wanna go. we'll be fishing the low tide this aft and then some,maybe go talk to some locals.Im heading to Nanaimo let me know if you wanna go. BRS

 

[Charter Tofino]

Hey we took some lady friends out and just jigged some lings. Nothin big maybe 6lbs C&R. Where did you end up? didnt see you out there

 

[bigredsnapper]

Had an old fishin buddy visit from Alberta. We ran over to Sangster, then Sqitty Bay, Jedidiah then False Bay to talk to the locals.No fish but a good day and lots of laughs. I tried calling you on #16 on the way out and no response. Salmon should be showing up anytime now...BRS

 

[bigredsnapper]

Ran up to the top end of Lasqueti and trolled False Bay to Finnerty Island and nothing. No bait and not even a Ling. Went into False Bay to talk to the locals and ran into the guy who caught the 30lber two weeks ago. Said it was a great scrap but he's fished lots since and nothing.I sure wish they would show up soon.......BRS

 

[Charter Tofino]

Haha gotta check in on those locals eh.

 

[haverodwilltravel]

gonna see if there's anything in qualicum tomorrow.

Went down to Gerald for the morning bite and a pod of killer whales went right by. I trlled for another 10 min and then I watched them head to Mistaken. There are a gizillion seals there so I picked up and went over hoping to see some fur flying. They were right and the end where all the seals were but I did'nt see any "bite it". Had the dog with me and he was going nuts. There was a huge male and his dorsal fin was curled right at the top. Not sure what that means.Kelly maybe you could post that pic and maybe someone on here recognizes him.

 

[Charter Tofino]

Heres the pic. I can barely make out the fin must not been very close I sent you a few emails

 

[haverodwilltravel]

wow

 

[bigredsnapper]

Gonna give her another shot today, not too sure where yet. Takin Duke out again, last time out he was lucky(12lb March 3)I'll report later on our day.BRS

 

[bigredsnapper]

Hey haverodwilltravel definitely a big wow. That was the biggest orca Ive ever seen, I thought someone on here may have recognize him. That curled dorsal is very unique and this guy was huge.BRS

 

[Charter Tofino]

Hey greg any fish around? I heard french creeks coughin some up 27 and 17lber last week. Decent fish. Might be worth a peek if its still dead.

 

[lazoman]

The whale is the ever popular T40, a transient.

 

[bigredsnapper]

Thanks Lazo, transient=seal eater. I hope this big boy hangs around awhile. BRS
