Where are you heading out from?
fished thrasher rock yesterday up off silva bay, gabriola but not a sniff in 4 hours. weather was awesome but fishin sucked. still a couple of weeks away from when things pick up apparently. won't be making the run up from galiano to gabriola again until it is guaranteed fish. got lots of prawns to ease the gas bill sting, however.
Fished tent island yesterday and caught 1 spring 10 pounds and released a 25 pound ling cod
got out into the strait yesterday, out of Porlier, one solid hit had it on for a bit, deep release. Brought in the biggest rock cod I've seen out there, released. Pretty good bloom going on, clogs up the rod pretty good. nice day though.
Ya the algae bloom is THICK right now. Really clogs up the eyes on the rod, eh? I try to run the line through my fingers when retrieving and then pick off the ball of algae when it builds up but it's still a pain in the ass. Good to hear you got a hit at porlier... i'm sure in 2 weeks we should be expecting multiple springs a day out there. Where did you get your hit? I generally just fishing the flood on the NE side of Galiano but will be fishing porlier more this year so will need to try some new spots.

Fished the cable area this morning for 3hrs. Got out just after the high slack. Caught a nice 8lb spring on a 3" glow CJ.
Sounds like we fish a similar area, it would be nice to see some more fish show up.
ya, still a week or two away I think. when it turns on in early May it really turns on quick and is usually solid for a couple months from thrasher down to galiano. hoping it gets going soon. I'm gonna head over to galiano in 2 weeks and I'll expect it to be decent by then. Look forward to any reports between now and then.
