Sunday
The weather window continued and we fished way offshore. Most of the good fishing seemed to be in the deeper water @ 100 metres + so we targeted some plateaus rising to this depth from around 300 metres.
This was the best day for big fish on our trip. Stu beat his PB with a 60, we had some 40’s and plenty of 30’s and 20’s. We headed home with a nice feed of Redfish for our supper and renamed it sore arm Sunday.

Monday
The weather window was now firmly closed. Our intention was to run for cover and hide from the weather and target Halibut in the fjords relatively close by. We were the only boat to leave the harbour which said it all. We did catch some fish but it was all small stuff with no sign of a Halibut. As we made our way home we had some very rough conditions to deal with where the wind funnels down off the mountains and through the channels. I think we were all pleased to see the harbour.

Cheers Col.It was great to see 3 fish over 50. I think that's a first for us on any of our trips here.
