Update from BC Coast


Recommended Posts

Hey everyone,

 

I thought I would put up a little bit of a report from my summer in BC so far. I am working at a fishing lodge and of course have been fishing throughout my time here as well. I have experienced some pretty great fishing and the wildlife and scenery isn't too shabby either. I will let the pics and videos do the talking.

 

 

Exploring/ Beachcombing some of the nearby islands

Went on a staff fishing trip one day out in the Grady White. Salmon fishing was on!

Bald Eagles are pretty damn big.

Here is a link to a video I shot on my go pro of the local bald eagles eating some carcasses we dumped on the rocks:

Went out fishing for Albacore tuna one day.. pretty wild.

Here is a link to another video shot on the GoPro of a huge ocean sunfish we spotted while tuna fishing:

 

 

And finally a lake that I fish that is full of small cutthroats ready to take a fly. Requires a pretty good hike in and then you have to paddle around in a little skiff that leaks.

Hope you enjoyed the pics and videos.

Hey thanks guys, glad you enjoyed the pics and videos. It is a nice summer job.. hard work but like I said scenery is great and awesome fishing. I am off the coast of Van Island.

 

 

Hey would love to see some video on that little cutty lake.

 

Next time I go I will get some footage, I don't currently have any.
