Great Link FD. never seen that page before but have my own DFO RCA links....maybe they are more direct to my area.
I think an RCA sticky thread is in order with that link specifically as it seems more people use SFBC for regulation info than looking them up on F&O Can. (me included at times)
Thanks.

We are fishing Thrasher right now. We just got a 19 pounder on a kitchen sink spoon at 150 feet. Earlier in the day we got a 20 pounder at Porlier. The fishing has been slow but I am super happy. We will stay out until tide change at 6:30. Nice flat water now.

Its killin me at work seeing how calm its been outfront!

You said, fish the pinnicales near seal reef. The reef and the pinnicales near it are in the RCA so I'm not sure what you mean by not being anywhere near it. Anyways not trying to knit pick but I see lots of people fish this closed area so I thought I would point it out. Check the link below for the enlarged map. Multiplie RCA's off lasqueti.

Anyways congrats on jigging the spring.

What depth are you running your gear at? I know where that shoal is and have always meant to give it a go.

Hey guys, a buddy and I are heading over to Thrasher tonight fishing then going to the pub, sleeping on the boat and fishing all day tomorrow.
I have been reading the threads and appreciate all of the knowledge.
Can anyone tell me where Grande is? Is it over by Entrance Island?
Also what general area should we focus on? I know fish move, but should we be over by Thrasher or more towards Nanaimo, or somewhere else?
Any up to date info is greatly appreciated...pm me if you want.
Cheers.

We are doing the same plan. We are on Red and grey 26' North River.
Grande is just north of Sylva Bay about 1/2 mile. If leaving from Sylva Bay, take the north most exit/entrance out of SB, you will pass a Cardinal Buoy. Pay attention( IE leave it on Port your side when heading north) or you will hit something hard. As soon as you are out past that, look to you left and see big house and clearing on high bank waterfront. Hit 200 feet of water, Drop your gear and start fishing.

I know that Hard thing you're talking about , Put me off the water for the last month and a half. You can go on ether side as long as you stay right beside it but still best to stay on the narrow side . In and out . Ran through there lots of times but wasnt paying attention and got a bit to far over. Learning the hard way sucks.

good luck over at Thrasher lads. I'll be fishing locally again, gonna fish the same tacks in the freighters that got us our limit on the high slack last sunday. Might make a full day of it and fish the 1pm low slack at the hump and then have a picnic on board and give the 830 high slack in the freighter tacks a whirl if the crew is up for it.. if anyone is staying local call my cell or hail me on 88a, feel like I'm the only one not running across the strait of georgia these days, getting lonely!! hahah
