Brad, You caught a 10# salmon? Man, in two trips to Vancouver Island I spent probably over $40.00 for licenses and caught a single rock cod or greenling, I don't remember now. It was tasty, but not worth the money. How did you catch the crab? You ventured North from Telegraph Cove, care to share your route? Did you make it to Mamalilacula? >Hear wolves howling mournfully nearby, as you negotiate a narrow >passage with tidal rapids on both ends. Would this have been Blackney Passage? It has a route between the larger island and a very small island that keeps you out of the main channel? On our trip up there we were coming back through Blackney Passage, if I have the name right, and just before entering a large swell came out of nowhere. The swell picked us up and then put us back down. It was very unsettling to say the least, it even cause our guides to look around with semi-startled expressions. No large ships had recently gone by, but we wondered if it was caused by one of the cruise ships that would slow down by the orca sanctuary. Maybe next summer........... Brian. *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************Received on Mon Aug 10 1998 - 10:22:39 PDT
