YOU caught fish on a hootchie?? Has the planet gone off it's axis??
I felt just as dirty typing it as I did tying it.

Was over at Gabriola solo yesterday ,lines in water about 10:20am. Apparently Trasher/flatops had a great bite from 8-11ish so kinda missed that but still plenty of action offshore Trasher/flattops and Grande. Being solo I decided I'd keep my two only if they were teenagers or bigger so I was releasing smaller fish under 12 lbs. I got my first teenager fairly soon , a 16.5 . Action was good then slowed but as the afternoon progressed it became hot with well on past double digits fish on. My searching for a bigger fish paid off as I did end up keeping a 19 lb. and managed time move to a spot to get some bottom fish ( no hali though) . Depths ranged from 80-160 in 650-1200' water. Fish were all over between Trasher and Whalebone. Glow hootchie, spackleback hootchie, GForce spoon and bait as well. Fish interestingly had 7-8" herring in them. The only thing stopping yet more Chinook hits were some areas are infested with p-cod /hake over there too. For a while it was thick with those guys.

We got into some fish off entrance island today. Kept a nice 17lb white and released 3 and missed a few more. My retired friend is happy to get his first keeper spring today. Beauty day even with GPS problems. Thrasher is about a 40 min run from ambleside doing about 35 mp/h.

Steely dan. I run a 17.5 double eagle with a 100hp mercury motor. Just pick your days and it's no problem.

I had things to do this weekend but.... the reports I read last night and a case of insomnia had me awake early. Nice day for a crossing. Went solo, kept one out of 3 between 8:30 and 10. Then things slowed up up until noon. Realeased a couple in that hour and swore I'd leave at 1. Had a couple of beauty 15lbers let go beside the boat. Great fighters, great day. Everthing picked up for me as soon as i switched to plastic from spoons.
I am so far behind on my yard work...
