Map on the right, turn your layers on and zoom in on the fishing BC app, at first blush the positions appear correct. You can also use the position function making it interactive.

Is it possible to jig for bottom fish or mootch for salmon in May? Even cast? On the "way inside" say from Julia inlet back to Stopper on that line? I would be in a small boat, so picking my days would be high on the list.

If you can make it over to Lyall Point...which is a pretty short hop from Secret beach...I've caught some smaller (but legal) springs around that time of year. I trolled the area in red, but around the other side of the point would probably work too. You can for sure round up some rockfish around Stopper islands and other rocks near there...might get lucky with a Ling too.

Pretty good volume coming out of Barkley the last month. We fished Forbes mostly until the herring thinned out. A couple nice fish in the mix there around the spawn. Swale has been the consistent spot for us, and a nice spot to hide from weather this week. Another good day down there today. Fish shrunk a bit (mostly 5-8lbers today but that's alright).

Finally edited my Aug 2025 video with the family... went over to put it in the archived 2025 reports... not open to posting any longer. I'll put it here. Unfortunately doesn't look like I'll be making it out this year. Kids have a Choir Trip to Sweden for a couple weeks in August, so I'll be going with a friend for a few days to a lodge for something different.

Hope you guys have a great season out there. Always enjoy the reports and information! I'll be back 2027 if I'm still around.

You guys should pay more attention to your rods. They were bending with fish on, and you didn’t even notice. You had me shouting at the TV, “Fish fish fish!”
