Notes

Morteza calls me to see if I wanted to go Sturgeon fishing with his young friend Jackson. we were going to use his 22' boat. but I showed up at morts house at 8;15 in the morning. Unfortunately Mort cancelled the trip as it was pissing down with rain and cold. also we found out Jackson some how lost the drain plug for his boat and damaged his prop. (Just wasn't watching the sonar)
So Jackson comes over and wants to fish Coquitlam River. but we ended up at Stave river.
Jackson gives me his 10' Kufa spinning rod one brass spoon and a bag of roe. and takes off as he has waders. I'm totally not ready for river fishing as I thought we were going to be on a boat.
so mort and me eventually make it down to the river.
