2024 Campbell River Reports
- Thread starter SFBC
- Start date
For what it’s worth - the Area 12 Test Boat Seine Fishery is showing very poor results for everything but pink salmon.
Sockeye has been poor - not unexpected- first year after the Adams big run - coho almost non-existent. Yesterday for 6 sets, only 2 coho.

Went out from 4 to 8pm last night. Fished between Green Can and Fransisco and it was dead - still no bait. Lot of boats were fishing the bay just north of Fransisco Point (I can't remember the name of that area) so we went there but it was slow there too - pinks only for us. Went to hump and released a few more pinks, an undersized spring and landed a hatchery coho. Hoping for the bait to return and things to pick up again.

My son-in -law is here needed fish=so fri at 0540 headed for sentry shoal-some bait at 270 feet on the RCA line-jigged it-nada-trolled down the east side of the shoal-some marks-picked up some coho but essentially and officially SLOW. Headed for Grants- Nice bait 230 ft north end - the shoal-jigged couple of really good sized cod. Trolled south-half way down- fish 240 feet-showing lots of marks-boated a very nice 79cm but that was it -bait disappeared on the tide turn. Crossed to Kitty- heavy bait-lots of fish-Jigged a nice spring within 5 min. Headed to Kitty this am early-very rough but the fish are there-finished by 0640--so boys and girls that is where the bait and fish are. Be warned-the ramp is a nightmare and there is NO PARKING what-so- ever!!! At PPlayground
This a.m. (i.e. 5:30 - 8:00 a.m.) no bait at the green can or the hump.
Got a 75 cm at sunset and a couple of unders at Hump. Stuffed with 4 inch herring but very little showing on the sounder.
