[Funeral Of Hearts]

Well yesterday I went out to fish from the beach in West Vancouver in hopes of hooking into some early pink salmon or a coho. I arrived at my destination and put on my waders in the blistering heat. I was instantly over heating but soon I was standing in the nice cool ocean. There were not many risers around but I knew there should be fish in the area. I have been doing a lot of Fly Fishing lately so I opted for a change of pace and went with a spinning rod and a lure to try entice the fish.
The fishing was slow, I saw one other guy catch a pink further down the beach and a couple on the nearby boats.
However, the day was not a total loss. I did manage one pink that put up a quick scrappy fight only to spit the hook right at my feet. I also managed to find a five dollar bill floating along (what are the chances of that?). I instantly had thoughts of all those movies where the character in the movie notices a single bill floating in the ocean along a beach only to look a bit further and find a briefcase full of money washing ashore... no such luck for me but I did pick up the five

Over all a beautiful evening to be out fishing. I think this weekend I will head a little further up the coast to try find greater numbers of money... err .. fish

Me, I was thinking of  the five dollar bill floating along and the fisherman grabbing it only to feel the bite of the hook and tug of the line as the fish start reeling him in.

C'mon man, don't go around claiming things that aren't yours; not cool. I lost that 5 fair and square.

Btw, FoH, I'm planning a trip up that way Friday if you want to carpool. Thinking of leaving Surrey around 7 or 8 am and fishing for a few hours ('til 3pm-ish; try to leave before the traffic), but I'm flexible... E-mail me if interested.

i might be headed a little further than west van. I'd like to find fish in greater numbers.

[zabber]

That's what I meant Sorry though, I mis-read your post (didn't catch the weekend part). I'll be heading up Saturday as well but probably with a couple of buddies and car'll be full...
