SailFlow is saying 23 at Sandheads

Not on the water but at Steveston dock blowing hard at 1030 this morning

20 knots from the north west equals a very rough time at sandheads. ...

Way to Go Canso on getting your buddy out! Special times with special friends.

Having been dealt some life altering illness myself in recent years, I try as much as I can to get out with family and friends. It brings you back to things that we value most in life. You just never know what tomorrow will bring.

So for those struggling, or, if you know some one that is or was a hard core fisher, or some one you know would enjoy some time on the water, with a good chance to get EM some fish........ Get Out There With Them.

Another awesome time at the chinook classic.
Over 10 chinook to the boat, and lost a few over the 2 days, smallest was about 13 and biggest was just above 20. Didn’t crack the top 3.
Conditions were sloppy all weekend. Saturday sandheads, Sunday north arm.

7 socks in da box. North arm. Trolling straight into the NW and riding it back. Rough. Stay home today is my advice but good news, you dont have to run to sandheads to find some schools.

 

[Rain City]

2 for 2 by 6:45 at NA. Gear at 40 and 50 in 200'. Quiet now.

 

[Alex_c]

found a big school south of the north a and boxed 3 quickly before I lost track of it. Any word on sandheads?

 

[Normfish]

Buddy is out at the South Arm has 3 in the box and lost 3 .

 

[jerryspringer1]

Wuts going on out there ppl? Where’s the afternoon shift heading

 

[Aphros]

Lots and lots of boats but no nets out that I have seen. Trolled out to the south of the NA and stayed a bit away from the fleet. Nothing yet but did lose a good sized spring. Water is perfect

 

[Kfishr]

Out at Sand heads. Good early bite. 7 for 9. Dogs in 200 ft. Nothing for awhile. 60 to 90 ft.
Nice weather. Calm.

 

[Rain City]

Hey @Rain City, how do the fish look? Beat up a bit or shiny n nice still??

 

[tincan]

Yup, great day at sandheads. Lots of sox from 7-9am for us and then moved to springs and boxed a couple low teens. Sox were in the 30-50 ft zone for us fishing in deeper water. Springs around the same depth but in tighter once the flood starting pushing. Really nice and flat out there which was nice to see after a weekend of sloshing crap. Get out there if you can!

 

[The Weasel]

Was at Sand heads from 6:30am to 10:00am. Bite was early.
8 fish in the box. Lost 4.
6 at 50 feet deep
1 at 87 feet deep
1 at 4o feet deep
Was like a lake out there today.
