T-10 / NA it was very choppy. Really bad. We packed and came to Cap mouth. Pretty slow here. No action. Everyone is working the mouth. Have yet to see a net

Just hit a pink on a dipsy diver with a no bananas spoon. My rigger isn't working. Had a big tangle yesterday and the power seems shot. Anyone got any ideas?

Is it a fuse?

Sounds like a breaker issue to me. Talk to Dave at Highwater. He won’t be able to fix it for you on the weekend but shares a lot of DIY tips.

The inline is good

Out 8 - 4 today. Started at the Bell, had a really good strike right off the bat but didn’t stick. Few passes and moved to NA. Nada. Moved to T-10. Lots of pinks jumping, hooked a few, lost a nice coho at the boat. Wind picked up big time, hard to troll so moved to West Van out by the point. One 52 cm. spring released. That’s it for eight grinding hours.

If not the fuse, check plug for corrosion inside. If not that may be the stop switch. Those three have bit me before.

Just got a 75 cm between sandheads and t-10. Also released an under and lost a good hit all in the last twenty min

What depth?

Out today 9 - 12 SH not a single sniff. Saw couple nets but looks like it was pinks. Saw on Instagram some people mentioned that they saw orcas today again. This is not surprise why everything was dead.
Tried to get some herring for bait however it was hard to reach required depth due to winds and currents
BTW do you guys know is it only chinook affected by orcas or pinks scared as well?

No pinks fight back. Orcas scared. Strength in numbers.

Sorry. Lol. Ya I am sure they would but don't see the same effect as there's millions more of them.

Remember orcas only eat Chinook. Hahahaha.
