Update to Fishing BC. 80 cm limit has been lifted for springs.
Anyone have reports on conditions heading up the coast? Trying to get out of False Creek heading up to Thormanby. In a bit of a holding pattern right now. Doesn't look like it's getting any better overnight or tomorrow.

Thanks for the advise. We’ll see how we doMy brother was catching chinook right outside the harbour but generally people fish up the Ag, Quarry Bay on Nelson Island, off Francis Peninsula lighthouse or down at Bjerre Shoal.
Was very quiet at Upwood and lower Bjerre for us today.
I made it to Thormanby. Jesus what a ride. A Bayliner that had tucked in behind me rescued my tender when my shackle somehow dissapeared. Was blowing 18 against the current the whole way. So many highs and lows with this life man. Beach day tomorrow then hopefully doing a bit of fishing in the evening and Monday morning. Might just cast some swim jigs while the kids sleeping. Monday afternoon we stop in at Nelson Island then head up to Princess Louisa. Sorry not much of a report but you're all my backup now.

Weekend Update:
-Still haven't got a line wet.
-After cleaning the water tank so we could give the kid a bath with the fresh water it now smells "bleachy".
-Forgot the $80 sunscreen for the kid so had to get a buddy to pick it up from my house on his way up.
-Turns out mooring balls at Thormanby aren't a great place to sleep in a NW
-Despite my best efforts the mosquitos are still getting in
-Heading to Nelson now and then hitting the 4PM low for access into Princess Louisa
-Having a blast despite almost going home this morning.
