Got it done this weekend!
With trips at the Lodge getting tight, the amount of requests for day trips has gone right through the roof.
So we did what our customers were asking for.
We bought another boat. But this time, we bought a more aggressive boat. It's a 21 foot Campion explorer.
This set up is going to allow us to be even more aggressive towards the weed beds and the rock faces.
Of course we will be gearing it out with nothing but the best equipment possible.
You can expect to see Islander MR2 and MR3 on board, Scotty down riggers, Lawerance electronics and all the rest of the goodies.

I can get some pics up later, but she is a fantastic set up.

We haven't let the cat out of the bag yet to many people. So if a Lodge trip is not in the cards this year for you, get in touch and we can set you up on a fantastic Day charter.

Thanks
Jamie

Here yah go. Not the best pic, but you get the idea.
I am heading out to Rupert next week on a "Get ready for the season" kinda trip and get this boat outfitted.
Pics when I get back, hopefully with some great Salmon.

Looks like there will be a finger of the dock with all white fiberglass boats.

Just gotta get that 1 aluminum outta there.

Any word if the guys at the "south cove end" will be around ?

Great idea to offer day trips. Not everyone traveling to Rupert can afford the full meal deal at your lodge.
This probably will not make you very popular with some of the local guides.

Yes, it allows us to diversify a bit and still have some back up in case we need a boat at the Lodge.

Clients will really like this. I am thinking we are going to supply lunches with the trips to make it easier for our clients. As well, I am working on a package that will see all the fish processed for them. Getting your fish taken care of is a bit of a hassle and I would like to see that included with the charter.

As for our local guides. This is just another chance to get new guys out to fish this wonderful place.

Agb..
I posted one a little further up.
Looks like I will be out in Rupert to get it geared up next week.
Once I get back, I am hopeful to have more pics of it in action.

Unreel. I believe this is going to be a great boat.
Please do keep us in mind. The captain of her is going to be one of the best local guides in Rupert.
He can and will get you on the fish and do it with a smile.
Same type of deal as a regular Lodge trip.
High end gear
High end guide
And most importantly, you have 2 other boats working with you. That should allow us to know exactly where the fish are on any given day.

I look forward to your call

Jamie
