    Story about poachers. There were 3 prawn traps around the area we were trolling (HITW ). Eventually a big boat with 6 guys pulls up and cleans out the traps. They then parked near the shore and were enjoying the day (maybe even the prawns). So a hour goes by we are near a trap and a 16ft...

    We tried to get to Cowan from Howe Sound way and it just wasn't worth it. Too uncomfortable trolling in that slop. Turned around to troll HITW till maybe it died down. We were into steady hits from 9-2. So never left. Tagged 10 and lost as many so happy to had given it a shot. All nooks...

    There will always be a bad apple in every bunch. There are also that do report year after year. Even if DFO didn't care it's ammunition we can continue to push. Never give up

    There was plenty if time to properly prepare announcements now versus further announcements. No reason for a delay. Looks like just a repetition of last year. Sad 😔

    Started at n arm and got into 2 wild coho then decided to troll to T10. Halfway there came into a school of bait so thick all 4 lines on the rods shook. A first for me. Bait everywhere to T10 and not one hit unfortunately. Ended the day at the cap watching a few nets out. But not for me. Still...

    Depends where you plan to launch. It's blowing thru Howe Sound and Whitecaps. If you launch at Sunset or Horseshoe then it will be a very lumpy ride till you get around Pt Atkinson where the water will be flat. Launch in n van and it will be an easier ride.

Fished 8-3 and 1dog on a lure (first for me) more dogs on bait so stopped using bait. 1 sockeye, 5 coho (2 hatch) and stopped counting nooks after 15. Most in 45-55 cm and 1 at 62. 10 samples done for Avid...
