2024 Port Alberni and Alberni Inlet Reports

[JWS]

I heard a rumour that you can no longer launch at china creek unless you are camping there. Any truth to that?

I think it’s been that way for a couple seasons now, I could be very wrong, though

 

[SpringVelocity]

Yep that's right. Not a rumour started last year. Can't just launch.

 

[Northdogboy]

Do you have to pay? What about Kayaks? I guess ill have to call and ask.

We’ve got 3 in the boat but it’s been a grind. Nothing yesterday

 

[Ryan A]

Fished Saturday and Today limited out both days. Today was way better than yesterday and a couple of good size ones today.

A few pictures from weekend. Heading back up Friday, be interesting to see how the fishing will be after 4 days of commercial openings.

I'm not familiar with the usual patterns for the commercial openings. I found the notice for June 23 - 26. I assume we should expect additional openings of similar length to follow? I am spending the weekend at China Creek July 5-8. Hoping they aren't all cleaned out by then.

I usually follow the notices about commercial and FN openings for sockeye quite closely. There are often time and location slots we can get into and find fish.
Does anyone have a link to the notices that they can share?
TIA
