For anyone that likes to fish or spearfish, - Spearfishing and harvesting of certaain types of shellfish etc while diving is allowed in BC depending on the area - and if you want to bring your gear with you and come dive here I will make sure that you get a Tidal waters fishing license to enable you to enjoy your sport and your dinner :) be it Crab, Rockfish, Lingcod or Salmon.
The Prices for Pacific Tidal water fishing licenses here are:
An "Annual' "Non Resident" License is $101 CAD per year
A 5 day "Non Resident" License is $31 CAD
A 3 day "Non Resident" License is $19 CAD
A 1 day "Non Resident" License is $7 CAD
The license is free for kids under 16 years old.
If you want to fish for Salmon, add $6 to the above prices.
For anyone that hasn't been to the BC coast and would really like to come visit, my dinner for the last 2 nights has been: Freshly caught Dungeness crab (pulled them from the trap myself) served right out of the boiling pot to my plate with clarified butter and fresh steamed veggies. If you come visit and dive with me out here this kind of fare may be on the menu for your dinner.

grabbing lunch after getting a coat of bottom paint on a friends boat. Have to check on a fising license after lunch so I can check on a friends crab trap while he's off island in Mexico. Dungeoness crab dinner... mmm mmm tasty!
decent frost on the ground this morning. The fog was lifting this morning at 730 as i headed for the workshop. Lyall Harbour had cleared enough to just see the marina as it emerged from the fluffy white mists so common here on the BC coast. a few sailboats at anchor on the bay, but no wind to set the orchestra of lines and bells ringing out across the waters from their masts. Summer will be here soon and the diving will be excellent.
Hoping to pull the old boat out of the weeds in a month and get her cleaned up for some adventure diving in May - June. Anyone want to do some drift diving? Out here in BC, Drift diving is DRIFT diving. Current, kelp beds, BIG fish, whales, octopus... and did I mention Current? Bring a lift bag and reel :)
