Thread: Greetings from British Columbia

Thanks for the welcomes. I live in NW BC. It is indeed beautiful here, which is probably why I find NZ appealing, as you folks live in a beautiful part of the world as well.

Pengy...we live about a 6 hour drive from the coast and the wife and I, along with some friends from the EU, are heading for the salt water the end of August. Should be good fishing then for Coho salmon, and we will do our best to get some ling cod and halibut to get us through the winter.

Where we live we have excellent fishing for rainbow trout, lake trout, whitefish and burbot (freshwater ling).

Anyways, I do hope to get down there to do the tourist thing, and hopefully go on a hunt if I can swing it. Like to get a tahr, but not sure the old carcass is up to it any longer. All the mountain hunts and heavy packs over the years have taken their toll.
