Outpost Update July 15th ~ a family affair

July 16, 2011

I love this shot of our Jazz charter landing in Masset today...

a small example of how everything is a little on the edge out here...

A misty changeover in Haida Gwaii had me a little nervous but the plane made it into Masset and the choppers made it to the lodge. Here's an arial shot of the Masset airport as our guests make their final leg to Port Louis...

As the guests unloaded Hannah-Banana got a wonderful surprise...

Her father and her "other brother" Jamie were onboard! More on that later.

With a wave goodbye one trip had ended and another begun...

The most important first step with any fishing trip...

...make sure the moneys on the table. Michael, John and Michael lay out the cash and rules for their weekend competition.

John wanted to make sure he made it on the blog for his two daughters watching at home...so here he is looking like less of a "gambling man" and more of a "Malboro Man"...

he had a great day on the water and got to expereince some classic west coast fishing...

Way to go "Father John".

There were lots of fish out there look how pretty this one is...

Ohhh, I'll be dreaming of fish like this next January. Lets see who else is having fun...

Michael got this HOG tyee at 32 pounds...plug still in place.

Randy and guide Storm had a ball...

Carol after watching her husband go fishing with WCFC for 22 years finally got to come and got her first salmon...

Great to have you here Carol.

Gladys brought a little sassy to the OP dock today...

...pictured here with a days efforts and her invisible husband Paul.

Then it was Hannah's "other-other-brother" OP guide Marky-mark who took his dad out fishing...

whats better than that?

How about making your older brother Jamie clean all the fish...

Not bad Marky-mark, you've got all the tricks...now lets see if you can bring that game to the krud table tomorrow night. Reid vs Reid it'll be a little sibling rivalry.

Hey watch out...

oooo...

ahhhhh....

Yikes...just a family of Orcas cruising...feeding, doing what they do.

They're after the same thing we are...

TYEES...this one for Al!

Can you count all the "family" references I made today? The first one to post the right number on this blog report wins something for their family member visiting at the lodge this weekend (which means you have to be related to someone here right now)...did you catch those last refferences?

I'm being tricky today and make up the rules so no complaining if you disagree with my count.
