Guess u can read the post Gov again. 5 landed doesn't mean 5 kept, couple were ping pong paddles and went for a swim back down. 3 were kept up to 50lbs, good thing for the internet police. Just like Anderson Cooper, ur " keepin em honest ":D

I am :D too! Good on you 3 upto 50 is a nice catch. Truly though, way better that you clarify "landed" for the world to see, rather than have a bunch of anti-recreational fishing interests read this site and point fingers at those "out of control sporties" will even break the law to the world out there.

With tongue in cheek - Bit of a low blow comparing my last post to the CNN Obama Entertainment Network (a place in my opinion void of unbias news but teeming with highly opinionated sensationalism) [:0][:p]

Out today east constance--three of us--two hali's 40 and 30. Real nice water today--running a bit, but could keep the gear on the bottom.
 
Pretty scratchy over the last few days,big tides that i didnt expect.
a couple of skates and a 35lb halibut ...
anybody eat skate ?
 
Worked Conny Sat and Sun morning with the Rock and picked up 2 butts on Saturday and 1 on Sunday up to 40lbs. Herring & Octo. Saw a couple others caught but overall it was a little slow out there. Good to be back on the water, weather was great and had a grey whale feeding around us on Sunday morning.

Went out for a nice morning blew up a little for a hour then calmed back down and was nice day on the water. Got 2 in the box 34 and 42lbs and packed her up around 1 when it started to rip. Beautiful day on the chuck!
 
it was a tad lumpy for most of the day but fishing was decent we got 4 in the boat all 40-45lbs boarder bank on octi.
 
Has anyone been doin much towards Oak Bay. Border sounds very tempting but my boat is small and tomorrow has turned into a family event so she's right full - I'd rather stay a little closer.

Anyways, I'll either fish the flats-ish or east constance if I'm feeling bold - will post results.
