2026 Gulf Island Reports

[A-a-Ron]

Tumbo was good for us today. Lots of action.

You guys fishing the outside or the channel? Was heading to the cabin this weekend, gonna go by vehicle but you guys got me tempted to go via boat now…

Fishing the ebb inside the channel on the tumbo side. Lots of action. 200 to 140. Ten feet off the bottom. South end of the island. Fish were full of small hearing. White uv coho killer.

So was out on the weekend near Pollier for a troll, and there was what appeared to be a fleet of sport boats (like 20 of them), perhaps 2 miles south jigging out in maybe 250 feet of water. What's going on there?
As far as Fishing, had a bunch of undersized, one keeper on., lost All on 4' spoons on bottom. Maybe 1 bite on the 602 plug fishing the other side.

Black cod was in “quotes” for a reason.
DFO has been advised. They either can’t, won’t or … perhaps .. don’t need to intervene.

Yes. I know. On occasion, black cod have been caught in the straight of Georgia.
