After fishing years ago at GPSL- the thread that started it all
I was talking to Tundra Monkey about his big trip in May, and absolutely lucked out, there were 2 spots available for myself and RKZSN!
Ocean fishing for Koho and Chinook and chum and pink and halibut and rock cod and ling cod and octopus and crabs and prawn and sharks and orca and dolphins and dog fish and sea monsters and yellow eye and gadxy, hjhghfkknvcr, jhvjju....
Sorry forgot to breathe.....
I'm excited!!!
Jamie said he has a new deal this year, double or nothing arm wrestling for the bill!

Ken, it will be a honor have all you guys at our Lodge.
I promise you, tons of great food, millions of laughs, the best fleet of boats, the absolute best guides in all of Bc, Then to top it off, you are fishing the Legendary monsters of the Skeena and NASS rivers. It is a experiance you will never forget.
Bring your Fat pants and start working out your forearms!

Hey Ken,
Jamie's right about your fat pants, you go for the food and stay for the fishing. You will have a blast.
We are going again in July this time not only the wife but the kids as well.
Last year the biggest we caught was 40lbs.
Ken hope you get a chance to join the Tyee club.
Good luck and good fishing.
TEH

Guys, we really appreciate all the support.
I know all the staff is looking forward to seeing our past guests again and meeting all the new ones.
I don't know about you guys, but I am already having issues sleeping at night. Seems the sound of a screaming Islander pops into my head as I try to fall asleep.
I am just counting the days until we can all sit around on the deck and tell our war stories of the day we spent fishing some of the best water in all of the world.

Ken, it's going to be fantastic hosting you guys.
We are putting the final touches on everything we can here from a management POV. Boots on the ground in Rupert a week before you get out.

That's the least I can do for Ken, he's delivered a few things I've bought even to my work. Not to mention how he helps everyone he can !!
