Stop @ a tackle store on the way-they'll sell you what you need and point you in the right direction.

Also-the SEARCH function here is slow but it does work-tonnes of information no need to piggyback on another thread.

hey, guys. I'm new to this forum, been fishing bamfield for many years. I have a seasonal site at the nook. going over on monday to open up the trailer. this will be the first trip of the season for me. was hoping to go fish the bank, if the weather cooperates. anybody got an up to date report?

also heard something about sockeye staging at pill? anybody catching the any of them?

inshore springs, what depth are they hitting at right now? hoochie? spoon?

thanks to anyone who replies, and I'll post my report when I get back.

p.s. to the guy who wants to fish hali inshore. sometimes you can get them just out from the green can. bouncing bottom with a hoochie ( like army truck). good luck:)

hey ladds, a good report coming here from two perspectives, went over sunday june 20th and started fishing monday morn at lighthouse bank out of ukee, did well and picked through a few smaller fish to limit on teens and a couple or 20ish, flat calm so headed to big bank for chickens and found them plenty in small range, then called it a day with a couple of crabs, next day did lighthouse in morn and had some nice fish on and lost a few, slower tuesday than monday but consistent, still nice waters, ended on bottom fish and headed home, Came home and picked up girl friend after processing fish and made the 5pm ferry and that was huge as there is construction btwn Ukee and PA (mercer bridge and this is a continous process so be WARNED)and the road closes for 6-8 hours, MADE IT BY 2 MINUTES< NO LIE. Went puking boating on the jiggers and had a crappy experience first day at wreck/rats nose and shallow spot, our boat only hooked 4 fish(4 hours of travel and 2.5 fishing) **** poor, decent seas and nice afternoon, since skunked> hooked up with Moonsnail, fat ***** with a bottle of rye and tunes and we partied 5 fish in a couple of hours all played by my GF, GREAT GUY recommened, partied rest of night and went out again on pukers and managed to sley,i hooked 20 fish friday of the boats 50 fish, all springs and we got our 14 passengers limited, one fish was 26#s, some passengers a lil too drunk too fish ,lol, headed home with our 8, freezers full and smokers getting reved
 
double glow, same thing i had after fi9shing with him one thursday afternoon, totally blitzed on rye and beer and santana singing in the background, much fun and sore KNUCKLES<< lol
 
For sure, fat ***** dan has always got lots of hootchies on his boat. In 2005 I met Dan on the dock, and we got to chatting and that led to "maybe we should go for a little troll at the Wall", so off we went. The first time I was on his boat he insisted that we each have our own hootchie. It seemed excessive to me, but having just met him and being out on his boat, who was I to question it. Well the good times rolled and we caught fish and had a blast and fat ***** dan was one of the most interesting dudes I met that summer. I haven't seen him in a couple of years so good to hear that he's still keeping the good times going.
 
Slow for us on the weekend. Lots of sockeye around, and a few shaker springs. I managed to lose 2 good fish and a number of socs. My partner brought one good soc into the boat. We were the only boat fishing the Wall for much of the weekend, and no wonder.

Fun to get out, and I am looking forward to the rest of the summer. Now it's time to start catching!
