Fishing - the best hobby for men

How much does it cost to set up a non-profit organization to fight mining pollution?
Pebble Creek Mine. In one of the drainages of Bristol Bay which is a hugely productive salmon fishing area. It is being headed by a Canadian mining company that is on record to their shareholders stating a few unsavory ideas. The tailings would be piled up and left there. The tailings would have various heavy metals which would leach out. The proposed dam is supposed to retain that leach water. Like most any modern low-assay gold mining operation, they'd use cyanide leaching to recovery the gold (like those eastern Nevada open mines). And,of course, cyanide is not good for anyone or anything's health. While Bristol Bay is a large body of water and would provide a lot of dilution of any spills, the drainages that the mine is in could definitely be killed off for several years in the event of a spill, accident, or damn failure. While it is possible to build damns that last 100 years, this wouldn't be constructed of concrete and steel but of tailings. And Alaska is a pretty seismicall

Not much. When I've set up non-profits in Alaska, it is something like $50 or $100 to the Secretary of State to incorporate a non-profit. That's all you need to do. But if you want to most easily write off your donations and solicit from others, you usually want 501(c)3 fedral designation as a non-profit. Check www.irs.gov for the details on that. You can't lobby politically, but if you orient it as an environmental/educational effort, that is valid. But I'd also strongly consider looking to join some of the other groups that are fighting the project. Many already have that non-profit status, staff, websites, etc. So you wouldn't have to duplicate those efforts but could find out what they need doing the most - writing letters, doing research, fundraising, etc.

The waters around the Queen Charlotte Islands have a reputation for being the best in the world for massive catches of premier salmon, halibut and ling and rock cod. The nutrient-rich waters heavy with schools of baitfish - combined with the prime location of these 150 islands in the salmon migration channel - make for an unbeatable fishing adventure. As opposed to going it alone, hiring a charter gives anglers the security of knowing that each vessel within the fleet is compliant with Canadian Coast Guard regulations. These boats are also equipped to provide a comfortable trip to passengers; some have cozy staterooms, a spacious galley and a restroom or two. Travelers usually fly in from Seattle or Vancouver, BC, a flight of just a couple of hours, and then hop onto a float plane to their island destination. Those longing for a slightly more scenic arrival can take the six-hour ferry ride from Prince Rupert on the mainland to the Queen Charlotte Islands. After catching their limit, guests looking for their next adventure can try freshwater fishing, hiking in the lush woods of the island forest, or adding hunting or diving to their sporting agenda. To make the expedition truly memorable, hire a BC fishing charter with an experienced captain and crew. These professionals should have a year-round knowledge of the waters and specialize in fishing for salmon and halibut. Not only will the crew work hard to make sure everyone on the boat catches their limit, but they'll also provide top-of-the-line gear and sound advice regarding bait, tackle and tips for reeling in the top catches. Best of all, after landing that 150-pound halibut, anglers can let the crew clean and prepare their catch for shipping while they relax or prepare to drop another line. Between catches, guests should keep an eye out for migrating humpback whales, porpoises and breeching orcas. Other marine life includes sea lions, seals and, of course, bald eagles that scope out fish from high above. When trolling close to shore, don't be surprised to spot a grizzly wandering the shoreline. The adventure can start with a voyage the night before aboard a sturdy cruiser that carries the party out to the fishing grounds. For charters that are combinations of fishing and lodging, the staff can prepare a hearty dinner at the lodge to get the group energized for an early rise and quick start in the morning. Anglers who book their next excursion aboard a chartered cruiser will experience comfort, world-class BC fishing and magnificent shoreline and ocean views throughout the duration of their trip. For unlimited beauty, non-stop adventure and a chance to tell terrific - and true - fishing stories afterward, the Queen Charlotte Islands remain an unmatched destination.

SOOKE Harbour House, my destination on the so-called Sea Lion Coast, is a good 45-minute drive west from Victoria, capital of British Columbia. I am on Canada's Vancouver Island which, confusingly, is not where you will find the lovely, mountain-backed city of Vancouver, although the two are but a short flight or ferry hop apart.
