Of course, you are always welcome to come fishing with me. Listen to this, my boss and a friend are kayaking from Port Hardy to Tofino (3 wweks) and he needs somebody to drive his van back to Vancouver, so he pays ferry, gas food, hotel, etc plus I can take all the time I want to drive back. He sent an email around to the lab asking for a volunteer and it took me 5 seconds to reply that I would do it!! Sweet eh? It be great if you can make it, is July 21st.  ;D

There's a boat rental in Port Hardy http://www.hardybayfishing.com/

If you know how to fish/have gear then Duval Point is close by.

If you have a GPS and chart then you can head over to Castle Rock.
