2017 OFFISHALL Vancouver-Howe Sound-Sechelt Reports Thread

Heading out Friday early. Are all these guys limiting out at Thrasher or is the hump just as good right now? Want to know if it's worth the extra gas. Plus I still use manual riggers so Thrasher depths are a lot of work! :/

I'm hitting Thrasher early tomorrow, will report back. It was VERY solid on the weekend from what I heard and not too deep.

Took me 4 years but I caught another one today!

Delicious dinner!

I have caught a couple in the last few years while prawning but nothing of any size, maybe half the size of your fist

Fishing right off the pin in fairly tight, 250-500ft water, getting them anywhere from 60-130' chovys working well. Going to try and come back tomorrow early afternoon. Bite has tapered off since this morning though.

Neck Point to Valdez has been on fire since last Thursday. Offshore 500-1000 feet of water on spoons behind Flashers.

90-150 feet on the cable.

Spoons on 6 foot leaders behind your favourite Flasher.

Hoochies on 32-38" leaders.

Greens, Glows and all the "most wanted" spoons being pumped in reports are on fire.

I know of 1 Boat who is well into double digits today and multiple boats who have hooked well into the double digits in 3 hours trolling the last few days with non stop action. Edit: they were into 30 plus fish.

If you're not on them....keep trolling and cover some water until you get on them.

Thanks for the great report! Going to head over tomorrow - with these kind of reports will probably have a tough time sleeping tonight!!!

Uuuuuuuuugh I'm so torn! I was dead set on humping all day tomorrow but now I'm thinking of thrashing instead. Either way I'm excited about the conditions.

Seriously?!
Been here since 7am and haven't had a nibble. Where are you?

 

[BigBadBrad]

Fished the NW ledge. Afternoon was much slower for us!

Is the "ledge" off south Bowen? If so, I was there in the afternoon as well with no luck.

 

[BigBadBrad]

Technically I guess not a steep ledge but a gradual drop off around the "hump". But we were on the north west section. Not south of Bowen.
