    2nd trip to the big drink.

    We had such a great trip and time at Port Eliza Lodge that were gonna do it again. 4 am tomorrow the big ol cummins powered Fargo will be west bound for 4 days of fishing, laughing and telling lies with Jim Harris and friends.

    I've been reading the fishing reports and it seems the fishing is hot but doesn't sound like anything big. When do those 50 lb springs show up? It would be awesome to see one let alone catch one.

    Have a great trip. I’m more familiar with kyuqet, but he end of June has always been a spectacular time to fish. Usually the fishing is hot but the sizes are not big. The bigger fish show up
    later in the summer.

    Awesome idea. Safe travels and best of luck. Priceless memories.
    If the world is warming why are there so many new snowflakes?

    If we are all equal why do you demand special treatment?

    We've started something that is pretty hard to quit. Once a guys out on the water it makes the long drive worth it.

    We fished the West Coast out of Tofino last weekend. Biggest Spring was a 25# my son brought in.

    Good luck!

    All i can say is wow. Once again Port Eliza was amazing and our skipper and crew got'er done. She was a little lumpy out during our trip. We all got baptized by at least one greeney each coming over the side. Limited out on our salmon and halibut. A few short of lingers and black bombers. Briused and battered , feels like I did a 10 rounder with mike Tyson and ran a 20 mile marathon.

    Amazing trip.

    Sounds awesome. So jealous. I been a time or two but ever in peak season. Every year I get asked to go but too much Fing work to do and not enough vacation time.

    Richie it is awesome. Probably $4500 all in and come home with sun burns and 100 lbs of fish. We're gonna plan on going next year and hopefully add another boat to our crew. If you're interested let me know. You can check out what we're about on my buddies youtube channel. Check out Grant Burwash on YouTube. You'll laugh at us halfwits
