Planning on fishing halibut for first time, so absolute newbie. I don't have an anchoring setup and that's been the main reason I haven't done halibut yet. I've been told lots of times I can drift, so that's the plan. I usually launch at Cheanuh so my options are to go east or west from there or launch at Pedder or Sooke, maybe Otter point? Tomorrow tides look pretty large and flooding from about half nine onwards at William head so I'm wondering if it's a waste of time to dry drifting the mud hole ...would it be better to go when there's less tide action or is there a better area that would be ok to drift and have a go?
