I visited the fuller lake site a few times and I haven't fished there yet. But I saw a clean launching ramp down there. You may want to launch your zodiac over there. Enjoy fishing.

Fished off the head, fishing is slow. But picked up a real nice 11 pound coho. Released a nice 6 or 7 pounder. Three shakers. Lost one. Drizzly rain then sun

had chum taken on a hootchie at 50 ft near Secretary Island years ago.

I noticed that schools of coho are at very deep 50 ft and down to 200 ft. Why is that? In old days, I caught coho at 5 ft or 15 ft. Lack of feed on surface?

I have seen some fishermen who have black boxes. Is black box for catching a fish or is it for running the electric downrigger?

A friend had sent his hatch coho head in and got a letter from dfo many years ago. It was from wash state hatchery. It indicates that some coho are from wash state rivers.

the fishing today is spectacular! numerous wild ones as catch
and released. 3 clipped coho > bait/artifical lures were the tickets.

Killer Whales put a good show for a little while and then ...

that is a good news cuz I may move to Vancouver in the near future and start fishing outside Cap and West Vancouver. It's exciting to look at the bridge and tall buildings while catching the fish.

If water gets rough, there are some cohoes near shoreline inside bays. Fish move lots on each day

I have caught a 9 3/4 lb chum salmon at possession point in the late fall many years ago. Large red/white hootchie same depth range for kings or cohoes.

Your comments remind me of good ol' days of Strait of Georgia coho fishing especially using bucktails and dodgers on the surface. lots of people used to enjoy blueback and mature coho angling...

Yes I know a few who fishes up far north, get northerns in July or August. Much bigger ones. In my theory, cohoes in Sooke are on the way to Washington state's rivers or perhaps Oregon later in the...

If my memory serves me right, I have done fishing further up the shoreline around the lighthouse in a tiny zodiac boat in the late season many years ago, picked up bigger cohoes. There should be some...

Very pretty fish!

I had downriggers weights stuck on the bottom behind that point while looking for sockeyes. It may be a sharp rock pile or submerged logs below. Divers may know what is there.

I didn't fish this morning..I slept in instead. Congratulations to derby winners with their big fish.

Fished around Cous Creek Bay yesterday, hooked a nice prime mid-teen king salmon. Perfect BBQ size fish. Hootchie plus lost a few. One mackerel to show. This morning, really slow. No kings to be...

It may happened to me as I saw a pod of whales coming straight to inside waters of pedder bay, thinking there are fish.

I dropped my small hook with full good worm onto the bottom with lake weed surroundings, large bass grabbed it that put up a good fight!

I went for a walk across breakwater, saw charterboats picked up a few nice ones in mid afternoon

I camped there behind the bridge that led to the lake. Yes, I saw a few bright sockeyes jumping at sunset. One of ccampers caught a very small trout and released at rivers mouth that led to Tofino...

Lost two king salmon, 1 mackeral.... Sunny morning then clouds , calm water
First solid strike, didn't stick, 2 rd fish very few inches to the net, split the hook. Little dark 15 lbs king.

Good...

After chinooks pass Sooke waters, they may enter Puget sound rivers. We found a few hatch chinooks in our waters.

I was there for half an hour with a buddy..found lots of fish on the sounder but no luck. Hoping for a halibut or spring. I assume there are good amount of bottomfish around.

I am pretty sure...

Yes I enjoy using bait lots. Out yesterday at head and shack, released 3 wild cohoes 4 to 6 lbs, and also released a small feeder spring. Lumpy ride, indeed!

Last week, released a good wild coho...
