At the Bell for the last hour. One big wild coho. No fight from it…my kid reeled it right to the net with no fuss

Don’t be netting wild coho my dog

Limited on pinks + 2 hatch hos. Threw back a lot of jack springs and jumbo wild cohos stealing bait.

Lots of fish out there if I'm limiting...

Made the run across from Ladysmith to Sand Heads this morning, lines in around 9:30. Quite a few pinks ( kept 4), released a few under sized Chinook and 1 sockeye. Kept one 17 pounder that hit at 75 ft on a spoon, all the pinks came on hoochies, no takers on bait. Nice run over and back

What is a T10 flasher? I thought I had them all but it appears not.

Ran from Nanaimo this morning. Lines down at 6:30am, was a slow morning for us but picked up on the slack and flood. Got 4 white springs 12-20lbs… lost quite a few more including some bigger fish. Whole herring and white flash fly.

Fished Sandheads 8 to noon. Got two early on in tight to the green can. Went quiet so we pushed out deeper. Got two out deeper around the 11 am low slack, then nothing. Thought some fish might ride the water when it started to flow again so moved in tight and got one more.



Biggest was mid to high 20s and over 100 cms. Smallest was around 10 lbs. Two whites, two reds, one marble. Released some smaller chinooks, a few pinks and two wild cohos. All keepers on bait, as high as 45’, as deep as 115’.

Grilled 4 collars for dinner. My wife calls them salmon wings.

Go up three messages from yours.

In two days I’ve had 5 lines cut (teeth?) and three swivels snap at the eye. Am I the only one?

One possibility is I used to see this up north, Haida Gwaii where salmon sharks are prevalent, actually targeted by some guests. Lines were often cut, so stainless lines on reels when targeting. The rest of us would fish a different area.

Do you renew your lines, leaders, and terminal tackle yearly?

Single swivel or bead chain?
