Port Renfrew Reports Summer 2012

[traveller]

We just got back home, and thanks to Optimist had a great trip, well sort of....went straight to Bonilla, located the 140 ft. shelf, and put down the salmon bellies....three really good bites and misses, then a nice 40 lb. halibut! Listening to the radio halibut were not plentiful, but we sure had chances and one nice one. No anchoring, just drifting. Salmon were not showing up at all....many had none, or some small ones....we did not hit one. South Winds came up at 10:30 AM and made the fishing at Bonilla uncomfortable, to say the least.

Good to see that someone got out and got some fishing in. I was out all week with the family to open up the cabin but didn't put the boat in. A few flat days out there last week though. On a side note........I just paid my moorage for the new Pacific Gateway Marina in the bay. The developers just sent out an e-mail looking for a gas jockey for this summer if anyone knows someone that might be interested. Now back to the fishing! Cheers!

Fishing is steady, Salmon fishing is great when you find them and Halibut fishing outstanding... Cheers

There's a new marina? I looked up the homepage but found very little. Does anyone have information to share? I know nothing about it.

Thanks

Thanks Slim.

Not much of a launch at this point. Steep switchback to get down to it and not a well graded launch but it beats running the river at select tides. Impossible to find unless you know exactly where to turn (blast rock driveway 1/4 mile past tourist center)
Best to check it out before you decide to launch there

In past, I trailered my boat to PR Marina and Campground. That is not an option now. Is anyone aware of any other place where I could moor in that area. Coming from spoke.
