My Saturday plans may be the last chance!
Seines are getting two hits at them next week.
Thx Crow. How is the quality still pretty bright?Good numbers for us this weekend! Separation, Deepwater, and the wall were most productive, 11 am until 4.

You can troll around Gillnets easily enough. Most will be out in the middle in that area due to the tidal flows. They will be more active at night as that is when catch rate is higher there.
Nets are 1200’ long so if you see a boat drifting look for the other end of the net. Also watch when you are travelling that you don’t run over a net.
Gillnets are only 45’ deep so they won’t break up the schools during the day.
I miss them both but with how political it became I had to step away. DFO has really screwed over the gillnetters.Make sure you wave first and smile at them.
Gillnetting used to be all glory, sex, drugs and rock & roll.
Now it is a very expensive hobby.
There are some pretty grumpy dudes out there, but many fine gentleman too. Just like this forum.
Gawd, I miss sockeye gillnetting, chum gillnetting, not so much.
