No, Half a mile from the border. Lots of wilds to sort through, But still some hatchery fish to be had.

I was on the ferry at 2 today there were a half dozen boats fishing just over the border on us side. what are your rules there now for coho? When is it closed for you guys?

Spent the evening last night on Constance from 5-6:30. Had a double header but lost both (one at the boat around 8lbs) and eventually landed a 8lb hatch winter spring. A few other boats kept me company and I saw everyone catch something. Beautiful evening with a lot of grey whales just past Constance

Trolled the flats Sat am from 10:30 to 12:30. Was a beautiful calm day out there. Had a great trip. We put 3 in the boat and missed 2. All right on bottom. Biggest was just over 7 lbs.

 

[Slack-tider]

Irishwolf you must have been in the right place at the right time. I did the flats today 8-12. Tried plastic, AP needle fish and chovies. Bounced the bottom, ran along the ledge No love for this guy. I did see one fish netted for the 5-6 boats. Huge bait balls and the birds were going crazy. Talked to someone at the ramp and he said there was a few being caught out at Constance.

Out Saturday from 10:30 to 2:00 on the flats. Kept 3 fish between 5 and 8 lbs and released 2. Bottom depth was the key.

 

[Irishwolf]

Hey Slack-tider, Sat was definitely a good day. I’m usually out on the miss days so it was a nice change for me. . All my hits came on coho killers around the 80 ft contour right on bottom. Most of the other boats were off in deeper water.

 

[tinboatrobb]

Kept this 7 lb feeder today and released 3 around 5 lbs. Oak Bay is still producing, saw a few others caught.

 

[Irishwolf]

Also out in Oak Bay today. Picked up these 2 feeders. Big one was just over 8lbs.
