I went past Collinson last Saturday, 5 boats out hooking into springs right at the point, pinks had mostly left. I fished the outside near Lions Islet and we ended up retaining 4 chinook (11 - 15lb) in 130' of water - reeling down hard and quick on the bite made a big difference. 70' down...
Great fishing out there these this last week - brought in a nice 86cm Spring that was released in excellent condition. The big ones are out there!
For derby weekend, this is the lure to win it:
The secret is to hook up the flasher backwards and troll in 500' at 5mph. See you at the prize...

Was fishing the other day, and heard a rather questionable use of VHF 16 throughout the day by a group known as Straightwatch. Apparently they're a non-profit with the goal of informing other vessels about whales in the immediate area. Seems reasonable.

Hit the outside of Active Pass last night from 4:30-7:30, had a few Chinook on and 1 undersize hatchery coho. Trolled the 200' contour fairly fast at 30' - 90' with a few checks into deeper water, never did get on top of any coho - less bait than usual.
The Survey does ask for opinions on a few of those questions. Personally I'm going to cut and paste:
These closures force smaller vessels and inexperienced boaters further away from safe fishing areas, or make fishing entirely impossible for those with smaller boats. It's unacceptable that...

Was out Sunday from 10 - 3 at Salamanca to fish the noon slack, not a single worthy hit. Fished 30' - 120'. Dozen shakers, undersized ling was it. Brought a new friend out this go, and when I got home I found a banana peel when cleaning the boat - f%%^ing new guy snunk a Banana onboard - who...
