Some of you guys enjoy seeing some of these pics, so i will add some more here....
I took my boat and my Brother out for a few hours cruising the pacific, off the west coast of vancouver island...
We caught some dungeness crabs, wicked good as always...
Watched humpback whales for a couple of hours, a pod of around a dozen or so were checking us out as we checked them out..
Saw a black bear out on an island, 100s of sea lions as well...
Good times, big waves....Thank god i have a cuddy boat as we took on a huge wave that piled on the front of the boat, and up the window and blew the topper off the boat and flooded the cabin and floors, bilged it out and carried on our way....
You don't want to be out here in a bowrider, to say the least...lol

These are sea lions, on right side and centre...They go nutso if you whistle real loud...
