Frost Bite derby at Esquimalt anglers, Sat. Weather forcast does not look good !! [:0] http://www.weatheroffice.gc.ca/marine/synopsis_e.html?mapID=02&siteID=16200 [V]

Marine Weather Statement
Issued 10:26 PM PST 12 December 2008
An intense 985 MB low pressure centre will rapidly develop near
southern Vancouver Island on Friday morning generating storm to near
hurricane force northwesterlies over southern offshore waters.
Ahead of the low, gale force southeasterlies are likely over
Inner south coastal waters by early Friday afternoon. A vigorous
Cold front will push southwards reaching the south coast late
Friday. Winds over inner south coastal waters will rise to gale
force northwesterly behind the cold front. Gale to storm force
Arctic outflow will strengthen through coastal inlets Friday night
and persist for several days. There is the potential for dangerous
freezing spray near central and north coastal inlets as temperatures
plummet and a high pressure ridge builds over the bc interior
Through the weekend. Visibility will be locally reduced in snow
Late Friday through early Sunday.
 
dress warm boyz its going to be freakin cold.bow down on the grady and go for it.oh ya lots of hot coffie and bailey's
 
Cold as a witch's tit out there today, we braved it long after all the boats disappeared around noon and managed 3 springs to about 9lbs.
Lost a couple as well. Overall it was slow...

Who won the derby today ?
 
Not sure of the guys name but a nice fish. I believe it was a high 13 lber and so was second place, I think 2nd was 13lbs 10 oz. Lots of fun, the water was good, just a bit nippy out there. Had 6 on, got four in the boat. My buddy "Peanut Butter Boy" got a nice 9 and a half and "Kozy" a high 8+ lber to place in the top 15. Good job boys and thanks to all the guys at the Frost Bite for another great day of fun! Can't wait until next year!!
:)
