Any chance of a water report? Suppose to run up to Sechelt today. Might one way tack the hump for a bit!

Wind report anyone??

 

[hippaisland]

Wind report anyone??

Heading up to Sechelt for weekend, just dropped lines at hump trolling with wind. 10-15kts from the east, 1-2’ chop. Not bad at all! Few other boats out.

Haha, I had selective vision too.

I wonder how many very large clipped coho will be retained too. BTW I’m in no way implying you would do such a thing.

[63stingray]

Dam I looked at ten times and don't see it haha ,ya I'll still go out and have some catch and release fun and wait.for the coho to start .

 

[hippaisland]

What? All my $6 salmon stamps didn’t prevent this?

The stamp money goes directly to psf if I’m not mistaken and given the amount of hatchery fish being caught this is the part I would gladly pay every year.

So the regulations website and app updated after midnight but they don’t seem to indicate any changes to retention. What gives?

Looks like the water is nice out there for now , anybody out off Bowen. Looks like it will start blowing around noon .
