2025 OFFISHALL Vancouver- Howe Sound-Sechelt Fishing Reports Thread

Started at the bell to mile markers late this morning, pretty slow, not much bait around, just a couple shakers. Ran up to tunstall, did a few passes, didn’t mark anything. Cruised around looking for some bait, found some at grace, got into some steady action, a couple unders, bonked a 63 and let a legal one go to fight another day - it was scared pretty bad on both sides. Lot of big logs floating around. Also ran up beside some guy dropping his gear, he didn’t seem too impressed, my apologies I thought you were Jon

Was at Cowan today 1:30 to 4. All unders 45-55cm at all depths. Kept changing depths to find a bigger one but didn’t matter. Was getting the unders from 220’ to 95’. Lost count of the hits but it was well over 3 dozen. Got lots of gaff release practice.

That was me and not a problem. Was just working on a new setup and got a bit surprised. Nice to see some proper fish still being caught. No bites for me, just a lost rigger ball and snubber….good practice for next year!

You'll know the difference between the two boats because I'll be netting fish 😛😉

I did notice a handful of boats fishing yesterday out at the QA marker. Any reports from there? It is not an area I would consider a normal winter fishing spot, but seems to be more fish turning up every winter so I suspect there must have been some action out that way in the last little while.

Years past it's been 'Shaker City' I don't imagine that's changed.
