Sunset or chovy has them
Went out today 10- 230 and headed for t10.
Stopped halfway from na and trolled up. Got 3 Dogfish on the bait pretty quick even getting them on a pretty quick troll so thru down spoons and a pink hootchie but only caught 2 small grisle. Allot of seals in area but also some thick bait. It was boiling on the surface and the finder was lighting up with balls everywhere. Reminded me of the big sockeye year and the huge schools around. Finder even did the 169ft to 27ft back to 169ft over one school. Back at Milltown saw 2 boats come in with a fish. Both teen springs. From the bell. One at 80ft Irish cream spoon just before tide change. The other at 60ft on chovie gold chrome head.
I got to fish uki Tofino and Van this week and was generally slow all over. Got fish but certainly not hot fishing. Will be out again tomorrow Bell or t10. Mo

It's the sandheads light station. At the South arm of the Fraser. If you're going to fish there make sure you get familiar with the regs, there are some closed areas right beside it
"gorby" LOL- Whistler-ese acronym for 'Geeks on Rented Boards'. Haven't heard that one since the nineties!

That term is used here in Tofino on a daily basis.
Reports of pinks sighted last night around Sunset Marina. Trolled area starting at 6. Lots of fish on the screen but no takers. Trolled some of the shoreline up to Furry Creek. Shoreline packed with fishermen and many more boats hugging the shoreline. Saw schools travel along the shoreline rolling up top and just a few lucky ones catching one. Headed next to Britannia Beach and saw some caught there. No luck from the boat so drove to mouth of the Squamish. Some showing but too rough to fish properly. Think a few weeks early for fishing the bluffs to the west side. Headed back to Furry Creek to more anglers but looks like the morning bit had disappeared and you had to work to get one. Nice to see the pinks have started to show up in the Sound. Should get better each day.
Damn 4 species in one day. That is fishing!!! And no dogs! Where and how deep?
Got some sharks too...prob 4 or 5.
50 to 70 rigger.
