Hi guys. I'm mid island Nanaimo area and wanting to try to catch some herring for the first time and it will be from shore. Got me some sabiki rigs But my question is when do they roughly start coming close to shore to spawn is it early March ?

March 09 is the full moon. Should be some spawning by then . Keep checking dfo pacific fisheries notices . They are doing sonar soundings now and the odd test set . No spawn yet . I usually cast off the french creek break water for them when they are in . High tide early in the morning is best . Rocks are really slippery so be careful. A square bucket is better than a round one . Gluck .
