A fine start to Dad's day. Off to fish the SE point above Green Rapids at 0800. Within three minutes we had hooked a three foot ling cod. A twenty minute battle ensued on light gear and ended with a swift well timed scoop of the net. Timing on the flood current was fortunate as well because the water was beginning to pulse and carry us around the nearby islets and toward the head of the rapids. We tethered the large ling to the dinghy, started our trusty Tohatsu and made "upriver" along shore returning to the quiet of Blind Channel's dock.

Later today, we may partake of the Dad's day BBQ offered by the resort (local beef and sockeye) and simply enjoy our first duff day since leaving Bainbridge four very full days ago.

Also, despite the remote location (no AT&T connection), we can enjoy great wireless service and gobble up more information about our next potential ports of call.
