Got out today, fog was nasty, fished the C&B. 4 of us onboard we kept 7 fish, 2 were whites. Only out there for a few hours was non stop action, white hoochie right off the bottom! Remember to turn your lights on in that pea soup!

Lots of fish still out there at the C&B, white cuddlefish was the ticket today!

Agree that C&B was productive this past weekend. On sunday, two keeper chinook, one of which was a white. Large blue/green spoons skimming the bottom, as deep as I could reasonably go (250'). I only run dummy flashers, so I don't know if regular flasher folks do better. I expect its about the same, just a different feel. I like the direct line to fish action, and faster resets.
The herring are definitely moving in, and not just hugging the bottom. They were up on the surface east of Hornby, although the fishing was not so good there. I guess they were all full on 8 inch herring.

So I know we don't like to give up our spots. But I am looking for some advice. Haven't been able to find a decent spot for dungeness in and around hornby/denman. When prawning near deep bay, ALOT of small dungeness are in the trap but under sized of course because its a prawn trap. If I put down a crab trap, nothin worth keeping. Am I the problem?

Just learned last week in another thread, Those are 'Graceful crab' cancer gracilis that look similar but never get bigger.
