    2018 Nanoose Bay/French Creek Reports

    Fishing was great out at Ballenas earlier this week, haven’t had a chance to post. Our guests from down south enjoyed watching a humpback feeding in the area and we tied into lots of fish, took home two early teen springs. One white and one so red it looked like a Sox. 155 -180 on a hiccup...

    2018 Nanoose Bay/French Creek Reports

    Always very slow for me out of Schooner from July out. This year was exceptionally good right up until recently. Maybe others have had more success, the same old spots and techniques haven’t yielded much compared to FC and other spots. PS, lots of bait right off shore along Blueback last night...

A few other boats with nets out tells...

    Gerald Island produced this weekend, 150' deep in 180' with the splatterback hootchie did the job. Lots of fun playing those first "training sized" fish of the year. They make up in enthusiasm for what they lack in size! Anyone watching me solo net that last one on Sunday morning must still be...

    2014 ECVI Nanoose Bay, French Creek Reports

    Fished French Creek last night with lots of fish marking and lots of hits at 150' on green splatterback spoon. One coho landed, thinking the hits were small fish? Heard good reviews from those fishing Sangster, and with it being this calm on the water, you could almost walk over there! Would...

    2014 ECVI Nanoose Bay, French Creek Reports

    Fished the 10am bite off Winchelsea sticking with the kite tail flasher and lime green hoochie with a jughead. Persistence paid off with my first of the year, a 15lb spring. 4 orcas feeding right against Winchelsea and heading north west at that time.
