Wow man  8). That looks awesome . Great place by the looks .
I sure miss the central coast (Shearwater) , should never have moved back to the lower mainland . It's on the bucket list to go back for a spell  ;D .

Nice. Like the footage of the float plane taking off at the middle arm of the Fraser.
Looks like a nice sheltered area. Fish looked so good quality.
After losing 2 fish no wonder Rod was nervous on his 3rd strike.
In the net & relief.
How do you spell relief Rolaids no ...fish in the sports net.
Two ladies should wear pampers then ya can stay out on the water longer OR porta potty & one girl holds up a blanket. Guys go to stern & look the other way.
Looking forward for part two.
Imagine/assume this was in Oct 2018 ???? Wild guess. Sept maybe....no wonder movie stars ,politicians, famous buissness men from the USA / other parts of world...come to BC for fishing adventures. 
Maybe BC gov. should invite Putin & also leader of China...tighten up relations & get some extra trade going.

You(s) look like ya had a blast. Your right the floating lodge is in great shape for the age & boats outboards equipment top notch. Guides skilled & friendly. Lady cooked up a "storm" ( tasty food )
A trip like this is a real adventure. Waters / beaches as said in the vid looked so un spoiled.
Thanks for sharing / very good camera work. Whales with passenger ship in background. How "neat" is that. Seems ya got into some nice fish. That was funny as ya all got into those survival suits (???)
Kinda looked like NASA astraunots.
Ya sure had calm waters & even alittle blue sky. Some of those fish fought well even more so the closer they got to the boat. The salmon I caught around Sandheads / in the river Gibert Rd & west on the Fraser ( in my past sports boats ) always were really hard to net as they fought so hard & darted so quick behind / to side of boat. Then fish would go down...& sometimes line pulled towards the outboard..
At times line broke because of getting into the prop area. Or fish got off & off it swam to live another day.
Great not to see plastic bottles debris on the beaches. ( plastic pollution in waters worldwide )
All three of you are good people...so great ya had a fun & safe time.
