Ok, I have the Yank flag I know, but my heart is more often in the CA waters. ...and we are only 17 nm from the border.
I have done four Westport runs with our 22 Skagit Orca for Albacore. Each trip has produced fish, btw 7 and 12 each time....plenty for our needs. We have been out of country most of each summer but try to get home to fish late summer in the PNW. All that said...
This last summer albacore fishing was dismal...and I did not trailer the boat from Anacortes to Westport as the Reports were that the fish’s were few, small and far off-shore. Previously the years have required paying close attention.
Here to help as Summer roles around. Until then lots of issues and truncated seasons to address
Best,
Doug
