Sept 1 opener

[Viking]

So let's get a conversation going on what you plan to fish sept 1.
My idea is to, try for 2 socks (provided it opens, which it probably wont) then switch to the meat show and target Chinook. Or do you just leave the sockeye gear out and hope a chin takes it?
I'll be out every day day and night till I'm satisfied.
So how about you?

I'll probably throw out the big meat until I'm tubbed on tyees and then switch to socks.

I'm looking forward to gluing together 4 chovies fresh out of the Canadian tire freezer and still needing to wrap tape around their heads to fit the teaser. They're HUGE this year, HUGE!!!

My experience on the Nanaimo side has been we might have a week of good Chinook fishing before they head over to the other side of the Strait. Last year it was 4 days of awesome and it rained on Sep 5, so that was that. I'm going to pray to the Sun God and fish hard.

 

[lemmy]

I'm thinking of going all out! Two weighted rods , forward , cutplug . 4 rods on the riggers with soc gear. Could be epically chaotic! lol.
