I am finally heading back up to Haida. I'm pulling the boat up and will have about 9 days to fish. I'm aiming to start fishing morning of June 24th. I will Post updates of my adventures when I'm up there.
My goals for this trip is to put my wife & son on a Tyee. Some Sablefish & Shortrakers while deep dropping. Lastly find some Opilio crabs. Of course big lings.
I can't wait!

Just spent the last 3 days fishing with the family. I have haven't had my foot on the gas pedal because my wife & daughter appreciate a slower pace & trolling salmon.
We have fished the wall at the entrance of the narrows (westside) & it's been lights out fishing. Lots of double headers.
First day was mostly cookie cutter 12-14lb chinook. Then Thursday a bigger batch of fish came through and lots 18-22lbs. The fish look different everyday. Some have copper backs, and others purple. Last wensday the baitvwas 7-8" needle fish. It was thick. Then yesterday big herring up to 10" where the main staple. I also found a massive amount of squid tucked into an inlet tye depth finder couldn't even read past 20' they were so thick.
We spent a couple hours at Buck (just south of the Narrows) and grabbed a few lings.
My crab spots are still hot. They are BIG and plentyful
Today my wife & daughter fly home. Then tomorrow I have plans to fish hard. Hopefully someone deep dropping also.
I will let you know how that works out.
