Great series, very enjoyable. Really captured the excitement and joy.
Just so you know for next time, there's excellent salmon fishing just inside the western entrance to Skidegate Channel. Get in tight to the rocky wall on the south side and there they'll be. And it's right on the route home.
PS, how cool is Skidegate Narrows? Love the run through there on the right tide. Boat slalom!

Thank you very much! I fished that wall back in June on my trip in Gwaii Haanas. Skidegate narrows is really cool. The one day was a bit stressful with fog and a dropping tide
Thanks for sharing the videos. Looks like you guys had a blast. That's my favourite part of the coast, from there south down Moresby. Such a unique place with the deep water so close to shore.
The narrows are really cool. I went through there once in a 14' soft bottom zodiac at a 0.5' tide. Almost had to get out to push, but was able to bounce through the shallowest spot with the engine up. There must have only been 4" of water.
