[Janet or Richard Wilson]

We are off to explore the Gulf Is. beginning with Cabbage and Tumbo. How is the prawning out there and can anyone advise us on sites and techniques?

Many thanks,

Thanks, Victor. We have a float attaching trap puller.

Now, is the prawning good in the Gulf Islands, and if so, what sort of spots should we check out, especially (as we will be there soon) around Tumbo and Galiano Islands.

Regards,
Janet

Im not sure if the prawning is good that way but i can tell you to set your traps in 240 -300 feet of water for the best results. As well as making sure you soak your prawn pellets in water six hours or so prior to setting the traps out. This is important because the scent is not realeased if the pellets are not disolving. good luck
