Nice Day!

[Canoeman]

Well, it has been a pretty rough stretch, but on Saturday I finally got out. What a beautiful day! No one wanted to come in the boat with me, 'cause at 79 1/2 years old I look like prime Carrona meat. The anchors felt like they doubled in weight over the winter, so I decided not to make a drop. Instead I just short drifted on a couple of little rockpiles. There was a little life around the 50 foot depth, and I managed to catch a couple of shortie blackfish. Beauties! The boat ran good, and the weather was nice. You cant catch 'em on the couch .

Great to hear from you Bob !! Even better to hear you got out and did some fishing ! Nothin' beats having the boat run well on the first trip of the year.

Hey Bob Welcome here! I didn't think you were a day over 50!

That is a great report. I'm waiting for the Nissey marina to open. I called the other day and they still didn't have a date. Please keep us updated. My brother Phil, now gone for close to 16-years, always enjoyed BS'n with you and I remember you reach out to me personally after his passing. Certain things you never forget.

How is that shoal that built up in the back last year trying to get out at low tide?

It's good to hear I'll see you out there again flagging down canoers that go right past the ramp
