Sold out. Shiphappens got the last ticket.
Not only the last ticket he's donating a set of stainless spools to upgrade the cracking, plastic, Scotty downrigger spools for the fundraiser.
Thank you Ship and the SFBC
Went out this afternoon. ZERO fish. That's how it goes.
Did get stopped by Fisheries, again. This was the sixth time since last December I've been stopped by some enforcement.
Three times Fisheries ,twice RCMP, and once Parks Canada who said they were also Fisheries officers. Five times in Sidney and once in Nootka. One day I was stopped twice last December. Always been treated me well. No infractions.

Last minute decision to take advantage of the weather and get out. Solo fish at Coal from about 10:30 - 1pm. One long line release on a good fish and then just before I pulled the pin, I picked up this male hatchery Spring. 72 cm, about 11 pounds. Very fat for a winter Spring and absolutely stuffed with sand lance. AP spoon on the bottom in about 100' of water.

We tried over by Moresby this morning 10:30- 1:30 on the change. Lots of boats, but no bites. Most boats were down at Fairfax so maybe we were in the wrong spot. Herring were spawning and pushed against the rocks so I guess the salmon had an abundance of feed. We tried several spoons (wee gee no bananas, Bon chovy SG, AP sandlance). Nada.

I was hoping to try there tomorrow.
Was the water milky? May try running over there and try to jig up some.

Fished Moresby from 10:30 - 2 today. Lots of boats. Lots of bait. Not even a bite. Didn't see any nets out.

That was about the same time that I was there and I had the same results. I didn’t see anybody play any fish, but the green boat said they caught two.

What a weekend, went out Saturday and tried Coal and Moresby but nothing but a long line release. Went out again this morning, headed over to the Powder wharf but the current was ripping (20 minutes heading South and 45 minutes or longer heading North). Picked up and went over to Coal around 08:00 and found this 15# beauty. Tons of bait at Coal and this one had a lard herring in it belly.

Quick afternoon jaunt with my pops today. Out of the boathouse and straight to coal.
2 hrs 2/2 hits one just under and one hatch 70cm got the wooden shampoo!
For those going in the derby, the only way to get them is 15mph “troll” at 10’ deep on the downriggers. You need to take your hooks completely off, and baby them in.
For the rest of you, go on the bottom and green spoons.
