Haida Gwaii ,Masset..bucket list check

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2 Old Guys(John and I) checked off a bucket list spot

Wow what a adventure

got to love 20# Chinook and a chance at a Tyee/King and Halibut & Rockfish

your arms get sore really quick as its non stop

John was into a Tyee but not too be ..Thor won with this 35#er

I had a Fhumblina moment and lost a rod and reel ($500 donation)

fun time at a beautiful Island

caught some Dungeness Crab at North Beach

met some friendly locals and wandered roads (lots of Sitka deer)

nice too get back too the coast for me as I was born as part of the Rain People https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ocean_Falls

Good stuff Speckle. Looks like you guys got into some nice fish makes the trip that much more rewarding.

Nice Yellow Eye. Did you get a chance to try for any Hali.

Thx for the pics.. It will keep a guy going until one gets out west.
