hillside CT has bait, second floor sporting goods. Unless they stopped selling in the last few months. Island outfitters may have some cheap smoked anchovie left over...
Was just at Trotac. You can go inside again!Go to Trotac...
You can mooch with cut plug Herring slowly lowering & raising the plugs at the side of the boat and some people call slow trolling with cut plug taking the motor in/out of gear 'power mooching'.I could be completely wrong but don't you use live bait for mooching?? Is there more then 1 technique?
Esquimalt Anglers has large herring got a case this morning ( open 6:30 till 9:00 7 days a week)Better tides for bottom fish this weekend. Where sells bait in the Victoria area? Didn't see it at Canadian Tire.
Headed out Saturday to drop the crab traps and moore the boat for fishing the rest of the weekend and was lured into fishing for Hali after the calm of Esquimalt anglers. Had one dog off Albert head before pulling out just after noon. Too rough for the old and young, but they did not complain. Just need a Hali on the boat to keep them hooked. New trailer next week and then it may be bamfield/ukee fishing for me if I can turn the tide on Hali luck. Any new spots by PM would be greatly appreciated, my boarder bank has fizzled and I'm not convinced north of Discovery where we got the derby winner last year was anything more than pure luck.
Trying for a West Coast Hat trick today...wish us luck.
Straight out To 250, ft stay out of the shipping lanes, have min 10lbs weight, 300ft sinkable rope & biggest float you have.Do that on the incoming flood on days with less than 2knots. If anything it will push your trap closer to Vic.
I had 1 prawn one day but 60 on another day with 2 hr soaks.
Well sounds like I’m gettin some prawn heads lol. We’re they jumbo ones? Glad to hear my info actually may of helped someone. Good job getting 2 Hali’s, another buddy got 2 today as well so hoping my day will come.
