2026 OFFISHALL Vancouver- Howe Sound- Sechelt Report Thread

A bit slow out here but got this beauty hatch 79cm in 100 fow

What color was the flesh.
Went out yesterday, took home a 63 and a 69 , both whites, like white white.
almost never get whites, lots of marbled fish in the winter, some reds.
In the last 5 trips released many in the 50 to 60 range, only 4 keepers, one red and 3 whites.
funny I used to be a red sping snob, I'd lift the gill plate and check if it was a red or white.
released lots big fall whites over the years.
Smoked up the last white a few weeks ago, my 15 year old daughter ate the whole thing in 3 days.
when I was getting ready Saturday she told me I need to bring home more white springs.
 
Kept the crew out all day LoL, they should know better… ended up with another keeper 63 which was white. The 79 was red, full crab traps for the crew to take home. Got another few just shy of keeping, overall seemed like a slower day but still kept busy all day long.
That 79 was my personal best for a winter so I would say it was a great day!
