2025 Gulf Island Reports

Another awesome weekend in the books. Didn’t fish too hard but found some coho off Tumbo Friday afternoon (1 hatch)
The nephews have been waiting a while to get out, and they wanted a lingcod. Little guy got a nice high teens one that took him back to bottom a couple times.
Also hooked an octopus which was a first for me, a quick release. Said hello to a couple decent springs as well, which stayed in the water of course. The back is a bit sore from crossing back this afternoon. Next upgrade, shockwave seats.

Speaking of Porlier, can anyone see any opportunity coming up for Chinook? I see some small portions of area 17, and 29-1 and 29-2 open up on the 15th. of July. I'm coming out of Maple Bay and would sure like to find something a little closer.

A lot more on the inside opens up Aug 1st (Area 18 & 19)
