Peter, Not to worry about hijacking the thread. My basic question was answered and I learned quite a bit more than I expected by the other replies. This was a good one for me. Pat

Bob and Dave, Thanks, guys. That clears that one up. Pat

Those on-board battery chargers ... do they have to be plugged in to shore powere to charge my boat's batteries? Or do they charge the batteries when the motor is running? :crook Thanks, Pat

And to think it is all barbless hooks. Pat

:amgry Cranky? ... Who's cranky? What a nerve to call us northerners cranky! I'll show you cranky. Pat

Computer Rooter, So, just out of curiosity, is it that much cheaper to take the boat to Juneau than it is to take the ferry? Is that about a 6-hour run? Pat

That's a fair question for this site. Five years ago I decided that I wanted a boat to fish and go shrimping up here in the Prince William Sound area. I guess I was tired of having to pay for a charter each time I wanted to fish and I wanted to go places and see things that the charters...

I used to have a book called the "Oregon Atlas of Lakes." It was pretty good because it gave depth readings as well as other information about quite a few lakes. If it's still available, you might want to take a look at it. Pat

I remember fly fishing there in the late 70's. Most anglers stood on those step ladders or on milk crates because the slope of the beach was so shallow. They fished side-by-side and heaved sinking lines out as far as they could. I didn't have a milk crate, so I sort of sidled up to the end of...

:teeth AHA!

Good point, Dan. There is now confirmation window appearing. I'll disable the pop-up blocker and giver her another try. Thanks, Pat

Well, I goofed up and put a photo in my album twice. Can anyone tell me how to remove one of them. In the window for "photo actions" the delete action doesn't work for me. Thanks, Pat

Would it be OK if I wore my "Warlock" hat while I was fishing in the C-Farer? Pat

Robbi, Thanks for the quick response. I have that issue of NW Flyfishing. I have a few parts for tying tube flies, too. I found the Canadian website for tube flies http://www.canadiantubeflies.com/index.html and they seem to have covered most of the bases on materials and techniques, too...

Robbi, Thanks for the information about fishing in the salt in your neighborhood. And thanks, too, for a peek at your flybox. You have some great looking patterns in there. I notice you are fishing with a few tube flies. Are you liking them more and more over the standard ties? I'm new to...

:idea Now Dan, that's a really bright idea. Those hooks don't have to be reserved just for wet slickers, either. C-Farer will be sporting a couple of them when she hits the water this spring. Pat

Mark, on "3rd Byte" bought some of them from Long's. They look just like single links of chain, but have a slot in one side. The side is flattened somewhat so that it's easy to slip the links together but they won't come apart without you really wanting them to. Mark showed them to me and they...

Dan, I e-mailed Burke Waldron, one of the F&G honchos in Junea about this problem. I wanted to keep my catch as fresh as possible on a two or three day possib.e Here is what he told me about cleaning halibut: "The regulation states that you can’t butcher or mutilate a halibut beyond the point...

Jim, That cruising guide by the Lethcoe's is some good book, all right. (Durn, now everyone will find all the little secret spots.) The latest edition is the 1998 one. There is a lot of fairly old information in it. This couple lives in Valdez and I heard that they are working on a revised...
