Barkley Sound is a place of quick changing weather. The captain noted the forecast that predicted an unseasonably strong low and we moved to the inner part of the Sound. The glorious, sunny, calm seas quickly raged. We sought refuge behind Bazett Island anchored and stern tied protected from 40 mph Southeastern winds.
Bazett Island turned out to be a treasure with a clear small cove filled with oysters and clams. Te oysters were smaller and particularly tasty.
A trip across the base of Pipestem Inlet to Lucky Creek was interesting but somewhat less enchanting than the reports.
Snuggled in we are waiting for calm seas to return. We had wished for better weather for our guests. Little fishing time for one of our favorite fishermen but perhaps Rick will come to Campbell River.

Doug and Jan. Ralph and I are enjoying your writings. I know it must be tough taking time out to write when you can fish and search for seafood.
Good to hear from you. We are having a great time!
