Rambling Fisherman has a new owner

The Dwayne Mustard Fishing Experience has purchased The Rambling Fisherman - a year round guided fishing operation.

The Rambling Fisherman has a long history of guiding great fishing on Vancouver Island.  Ian, the founder of the company, has headed to Alberta for a career change and he chose Dwayne to take over the company.  He'll be great!  He's a fantastic salmon guide and has fished the rivers of Vancouver Island for years.  And he's fun to spend time with.

Check out The Rambling Fisherman's blog/website and Facebook Page.  It's exciting to see where Dwayne takes this already great company!

Book a guided drift on Vancouver Island.  Fishing is a great outdoor activity.

New Favorite Store!

I went to Cabela's on Sunday.  I needed some chest waders so I can go steelhead fishing this winter.  Oh, my.  I was overwhelmed.

The stores are HUGE.  The exterior is beautiful.  This interior is beautiful.  And the stores are filled with large taxidermy displays between the gear and clothing.  And they make fudge on the premises so the place smells incredible.

I highly recommend a visit if you're looking for any outdoor gear.  Amazing.

Extend Your Summer

We've had a fantastic summer here on the west coast.  Long sunny days in abundance.  It's the second half of September and we're still swimming in the lake!

I thought I'd share some of what I've been up to...

Fishing has been spectacular this season!

 Tofino has had great beach walking weather.

And the rowing has been awesome, of course!

Get outside and extend your summer.
