First day on the water in my boat yesterday. Caught our limit of 15 cod. Decent size fish. Unfortunately no whales seen, but good morning nonetheless!

I admire you guys that live near the sea and have access to things us freshwater guys can't have.

yeah, but I envy you guys that have much more to choose from in fresh water. All we have are trout in our lakes and salmon in some rivers. I've never even seen a bass, catfish, crappie, pike or any other freshwater fish you can catch. I guess the grass is always greener on the other side! By the way, me and my wife went for a drive today to a community where whales come right in to the beach after small bait fish called caplin. See the pictures, we were a bit far from the beach but there were four or five whales coming in pretty close.IMG_0642.jpg

George street can be fun but the next day is rough. There is some awesome scenery around here. Here's a few pics, you can see an iceberg off shore behind the islands in one,IMG_0495.jpgIMG_0584.jpgIMG_0582.jpgIMG_0570.jpg

Those are some lovely pictures! And I know a salmon or cod tastes a whole lot better than a bass.:)

If you ever do, you need to do a bit of planning. NL is a big place and you can't do it all from one area. Also the weather in May, June and early July is pretty terrible.
