Where are you going? If it were me and I lived there, I would either be fishing Gold River....may be a tinge too early, or Port McNeill/Port Hardy......Oh wait, I do live here! Fishing for both hali and Springs are quite good up here right now.

My brother has his new boat @ Nanaimo but we are comming up Island..I once fished with Dale Frame out of Gold river years ago for steelhead...got so many BIG fish I had sore gorrilla arms for weeks.

As THE Canadian rep for ACCURATE I am itching to try these NEW twin Boss magnums out on hali...... BARN DOORS...yeeeeeehaaaaawwww

Steven...

Have a safe trip down and through the "smoke".:wink:

I may be connecting with Joe as he is now heading down this way instead of to Terrace, and give him a few hints and spots in the local 'chuck' down here.
