2025 Nanaimo Reports

Picked up a 67cm spring (marble) and a hatch coho last night off the fingers. Both on a cop car skinny g. Spring was at 150 and coho was at 75. Released several wild coho with only the 1 hatchery fish. My hatch to wild ratios have not been very good so far this year.
 
Had a productive beauty evening at Entrance. Got our 3 keeper springs at 170' biggest was a fat 76". Also released an over and kept one hatch coho. Somehow, despite being surrounded by seals none of them got ahold of our fish, though I did horse the over in and have no idea how it didn't end up being a rock sausage sandwich.
Back home before sunset.

What did you get your springs on?

White hoochie, Double black flasher. One of them was full of 5" herring, so maybe bigger spoons than we were using on the other side would have been better.
As flywheel said, ours were on the same bait ball which we kept circling back to, though the over was a bit away from that. Other bait balls though: no love.

Great info thanks. Heading back out tomorrow and Saturday.
