It’s come down 15 mph since 0530. I’m gonna head out at 0900.

I don’t know guys, SH in these wind conditions…

 

[Ringo]

Yeah tough luck for them. Kinda glad I missed out on a ticket.
I’ll be out in the bathtub conditions tomorrow. @Ringo looks like my “anti-rain” dance bought us a couple more days

Leave a few for me. I’ll be back to it on Monday! Good luck to the derby boys. Be safe out there.

T10 since 7am. A few Coho to the boat. No springs yet. It's quite sporty out. May have eased slightly in last 10 mins. Definitely not a day to fish solo - glad there are a few guys on the boat today.

At T10. Light winds from west. Sloppy 3 footers. 40 boats. Fiahable. Nice ab workout .

Where do you run from? It’s great that you’re out there so much giving reports and enjoying the heck out of this opening.

North Arm. Milltown. Lots of wild Hos. No Springs yet.

Went out Wednesday for an afternoon shift - left the dock around 12:30 headed for Sandheads. Couldn't make it out of the harbour. At idle speed my nose was dipping into each wave. Such tight chop, probably 4-5 footers. I'm sure things would've improved as I exited English bay but I chickened out and fished the cap. Just 2 wild coho's for my efforts. One other guy out there said he landed a chinook. Flattened right out around 3pm but was too late for me to change locations.

Would appreciate an update if you make it to sand heads. We are in a 16 ft boat so going to launch at Wellington point and fish sturgeon till it calms down on the straight. Hoping to get into a few salmon this evening.

SH is lumpy. 4-5 footers. It’s blowing 10-15. Not fit for 16 ft. I’ve taken a few over my bow. Fish are here tho.
