P6210192A couple of weekends ago the bairns and I participated in the Bullhead Derby in Steveston.  Scores of kids chasing sculpins large and small off the shore of Garry Point.  It was a lot of fun and #2 child took 2nd prize with a 9 1/2" fish (at right). All good.

Is today.  Lots of relevant links at Blogfish's Carnival of the Blue. Also there is DFO's page, the Suzuki Foundation, and the Vancouver Aquarium (who are celebrating the week).

Get wet.
