Headed out Salmon fishing on English Bay yesterday-fishing from a 28' Shamrock-spent all day in front of the city and the weather was stellar/visibility was incredible.
Only one small Spring Salmon-released-and another knockoff on the downrigger but the amazing conditions made up for the meagre results.
Bald Eagles abound these days.

These mountains are rarely seen from downtown let along from the middle of the bay.
