π¨π¦ Incredible Canada π¨π¦ we recently finished the trip of a lifetime, if you`re interested in details read on ππ
Kati, the kids and I just completed 6 weeks travelling around British Columbia and the Canadian Rockies in a motor home π
We`ve done quite a lot of travel in the past but this was something else ..
Our passage started in Vancouver and the Fraser River, over to Vancouver Island criss crossed bottom to top, 16 hr Ferry from Port Hardy up the inside passage to Prince Rupert, across to Terrace and lava feild, down through central BC into Mount Robson, Jasper, Icedfeild Parkway (most unbelievable scenery ive ever seen) into Banff, then zig zagged from Kootenay down towards USA border back up to Camploops, Whistler etc and back into Vancouver once more.
**all thanks to the incredible and tireless planning of my wonderful wife!π **
.
Finn and I caught basically every fish on offer π
I termed it pokemon hunting, as we aimed to catch all species on our hit list =
.
PACIFIC Salmon - Chinook (spring), coho, chum, pink and sockeye (plus kokenee which are land locked sockeye)
Trout - cut throat, sea run cutties, rainbow, steel head
Char - bull trout, lake trout, brook trout, dolly varden
White Sturgeon
Halibut
Ling cod, flounder, surf perch and a multitude of Rock fish species
.
Finns giant buck chinook salmon in the first pick was the most incredible fish I`ve ever seen (and I`ve seen a few π) I swear you could see the entire universe along its massive flanks - mind boggling π€―
Crazy fishing at times.
Battling 4x giant Sturgeon to 300lb with Matty was nuts. These prehistoric mud marlin jump instantly on hook set and then go to war on 150lb braid and virtual lock up π¬ AWESOME. (DM for guides contact)
Great time hooking big silver coho salmon doing back flips in a tiny tannin creek on a light travel stick.
Offshore fishing with Dean from @peninsulacharters was terrific landing a whole host of species in only half a day π including chicken of sea (halibut) Ling cod, rock fish and salmon βοΈπ£
Wildlife included sea otters, orcas, golden eagles, elk, big horn sheep, chipmunks, porcupines, beavers and bald eagles π¦
.
Video to come π€π½

β οΈβ οΈ BIG shallow water #snapper !! β οΈβ οΈ
The 94cm fish of a lifetime for Stephen π£
He and Anne are regulars from Kempsey and have had a tough few months with the floods, so it was great to put them onto such a quality capture π
We had to chase it on light tackle using the electric motor over extremely shallow heavy reef - what a relief when he lay in the net π

π¬ BIG Queensland Groper for 14 yr old Max!! ππ
.
Have you caught one in NSW before? They`re actually quite common on the north coast π
.
The hefty beast put up quite a battle, but we had just the man for the job πͺ #Maxpower
As they`re a protected species I removed the hook from its lip and released the monster using our reef anchor as a release weight (it was suffering barotrauma and the standard size release weights are way too small) βοΈπ

Terrific effort by Rachelle π to land this little #blackmarlin on a tiny 27lb single strand spotty mackerel rig π #yehthegirls ππͺ
Took me 3x attempts to get the anchor up whilst she battled the fish around the boat in increasingly strong wind and sloppy ocean ππ
Over 40mins to get boatside and lots of crazy jumps and screaming runs π
