Nice haul wolf. Lookin a little pink from that blazin sun today! [8D]To answer the question ~ I think "old school" refers to fishing a little tighter to shore and running the gear in the top 50 feet of water. Looks like it paid off!

 

[Rum Buddies]

well we had 6 springs to 22lbs off east sooke tonight so I'd say fishing is getting pretty damn good.

Just got back from Pedder Bay last night. Fished around Beechey head Wed morning got a nice 35Lb at 80' on a slow troll, that was it.
Back yesterday, hooked a couple at 12lbs, further out at 150'.

Being a rookie for this area and still feeling my way around (the locals are pretty tight about giving out information) There seem,s to be a lot of kelp in this area, Is it the time of year, or is this normal?
There were also lots of driftwood in the area must have been a high tide lately, that washed them of the beach.
Spent a lot of the day clearing my lines, hard work solo fishing out there.

 

[Rum Buddies]

well I'll take 1 35lber over a bunch of teenagers anyday - so I think you're doing alright. If the debris in the water is bad, simply move out into deeper water or to another area with less problems.

If you can't keep you're lines clean it doesn't matter how many fish are sitting underneath you.

 

[wolf]

The weeds have been bad all week but once the tide kicks in on the flood it does blow out just have to wait it out not much you can do all the way up to sheringham same thing there.

Out again today steller day bit rough but we got them biggest salmon was a 26 lber and we got something I havent got in a long time trolling for salmon off of sooke a nice 40 lb hali go figure!!!!!!gone now back next week until then.

Good luck Wolf

[wolf]

Otter thanks for the comments but i am by far not the best out there there are a few I think are better than me I have the luxury of being out there all the time and the years of guiding helped me out a great deal!!!!!!!I must admit great couple of days fishing for sure but had to work for them

Hali dont worry that was my last trip till next week I am off for our fastball provincials for the weekend.

Good luck to you all Wolf

Your consistency speaks for success/expertism, Im probably quite jelous,human nature but you didnt have to rub it in with the Halibut catch.Kidding.
