I wonder if that would still be the same today though. There used to be all of three boats out on a given day in February. Now you see 50+ when some dummy posts his reds or whites on Facecrap Fishing For Idiots pages.

Don't you guys understand that the starving whales need all of those fish.

it would be spread out, now everyone’s shifting effort to the few nice days in March and February.

Statistics can be misleading. The 10-yr average is pretty pathetic, it's not a historical index number that encapsulates the good ol days. Keep in mind a slight % increase over lousy is still pretty friggin lousy.

I brought this exact same question to DFO !!! How come you guys dont mention ANYTHING about how the USA have ramped up there hatchery program way way up I dont recall the number but when it was annouced "these" whales were in trouble I think it was like 300 %.
Correct me if im wrong... DFO seems to not care at all and where was all the funding for hatchery progarms TRUDUMB was giving hatcheries. All of it was smoke and mirrors !!! If this is the forecast thank you usa for helping out and using common sense and DOING. Guys fish hard this year as our days are numbered with this government
