    Halibut opening

    Many strange things happening. Perhaps if this whole thing boils down to money we the sport people just need to get with the times and cough it up? Saltwater licences are virtually free. The govt doesn't make much money off us sportfishers directly. Do they make anything off the commercial...

    Southeast Alaska is shutting down their chinook fisheries...gulp

    $250 for a licence might seem steep to people who have been getting their licences for essentially nothing, truly $28 is like getting a licence for free. What's a $100? Its nothing, pocket change, a nice supper in a decent restaurant without drinks. $200 is going out for supper twice without...

To bad the rules arent like in Alaska that when the run is so big they up the daily and possession limits. Would be...

    Catching a Chinook near Terrace

    Plenty of chinook are caught right in town on Ferry Island. Truly its as good as any place right now cuz the big run going upstream of town is on at the moment. You see all the flossers on the upstream side of the bridge and on the other side of the bridge is where all the plunkers are. Don't...

    Skeena Sockeye

    Hey all, I am brand new here. Glad I found this site. Anyways, question of the day... what is the sockeye run anticipated to be this year on the Skeena? So sad last year made the long trek and bought all kinds of gear but no bag limit last year, and here I was certain they were just joking and...
