I just got off the phone with Lisa Killick of WestCoast Resorts http://www.westcoastresorts.com/ and we're announcing a second listener trip to their Lodge at Hippa Island.

Here's a link to the blog describing our last trip to Haida Gwaii (Queen Charlotte Islands)
http://www.theoutdoorline.com/blog/2016/07/08/englefield-again-provin-it/

So here's the deal: We leave Saturday afternoon August 20 and stay the night in the River Rock Resort Casino http://www.riverrock.com/

Early on Sunday morning, we take the shuttle to the Vancouver Airport only minutes away, jump on the jet to Sandspit and the Helijet to Hippa Island where we'll be fishing by noon!

We fish the half day on the 21st, a full day on the 22nd & 23rd and we're back on the ground in Vancouver Wednesday August 24th at noon!

Here's the kicker: On our earlier trip the cost was $2999 USD
WestCoast Resorts is dropping the price to $2999 Canadian which is only $2300 bucks for the trip of a lifetime! thumbup

Consider that you can bring home 100 pounds of salmon, halibut, ling cod and rockfish and that fishbox is worth over $2000 at your local fish market! cheers

Here's hoping you can join us in Hippa Island this August!!! :D

We heard you guys talking about this on Saturday and I'm looking seriously at going especially since we're not going to have much opportunity in the sound after the short king season.
Is there any issue getting your fish back over the border?

No problem at all 'Buster!
Your fish are vacuum packed and boxed up at the lodge with crossing the border in mind.
It's a great experience and I hop you can make it! thumbup

I have to say that I'm completely humbled and grateful for the response to this trip!
We've almost filled the lodge! There are less than 10 spots left!
I can't wait and look forward to meeting some new fishing friends in this wonderful place! :D
