Well the wind is still howling, not looking good for the morning. Hopefully we'll be able to get out in the afternoon at least.

My friend just dropped off a new rigger weight for me, about 14lbs. We used them on his boat last weekend and they tracked really nicely...

A few quick videos of the rough fishing today. Eric was the lucky man of the day, not because his fish was the biggest, but because he had to reel it in on the 500' copper in 8' waves... he was a trooper though and showed that fish who was boss!

The ride in was kinda scary, had to actually ride out a bit to get back East then head with the waves into the chute. If you didn't give the boat enough gas to "surf the wave", the wave would pick you up and push you wherever it wanted...

Also, we caught a lamprey today, but it snuck off the boat before I could get a picture of it. Thought this video was pretty awesome...

For those of you braving the storm tomorrow, please be safe.

When we drove by you I was like "man look at this guy he's gettin tossed around like a cork in a flushed toilet .. Oh that's Finders Keepers lol".

A wee bit too rough for us today. It will give me a chance to change out one of my boat batteries though and do some prep work for the Salmon Slam in a couple of weeks (Cant wait!)

Nick,

We made the decision last night to bag the BFF today due to the weather. We are going to come up for lunch and try to pre-fish this afternoon/evening. We are going to go over to the weigh in for the BFF and see how everyone did. Maybe we will see you there?

Been out of touch for a few weeks with the baby and bellow repair...looking to get back at it Sunday, how are the fleas?

The cold water has kept the fleas away, very few on the lines.
