Recently, on a salmon fishing trip to Milne Bank Sound, we witnessed some unusual things. According to the fishing guides, we were catching an unusual number of mackerel, 1-3lb. range., These were all caught within 50 meters of the shoreline. The blue shark, (4.5Ft.), caught by my brother was also within the 50m. zone. Regular sightings of large "SUN" fish, I personally saw 4, were not unusual.But having them in the area apparently is. Water temp. was not measured except by feel, I think it was warm enough to swim in, comfortably. Noticeable lack of water fowl.--Erik Virs <evirs@direct.ca>
