The Kidd is at PY Marine and had the new Donkeys hung on it this morning.

What kelly said. Late June is a great time to go---put your time in, don't run away from fish once you find them, and if you're lucky you just might stumble into an early hog. And those early springers are hot numbers. Sometimes a 12 pounder will clean your clock and you'll think it's three times the size. That for me is as cool as getting a slab, sometimes cooler

I fished tofino yesterday and it was a bit disappointing. Arrived off shore, **** on a plate calm, patchy glassy spots, put both sides down. Landed one, let it go. Then a double header. Kept one of those. Then a 20 pounder, and a 15 right after that. Only a half hour has gone by and we are happy that the fishing is good and we look forward to fishing halibut after our last salmon. Then we landed 2 halibut and after about a hour and 20 minutes of fishing we caught our fish of the day a 24 lbs spring. We were sad we had to go home. It was a bit disappointing.

SLOW doesn't even describe the salmon fishing this weekend in Barkley. We managed to get 1 spring all weekend. We fished Meares, Swale, Pill, The Wall, and briefly at the Whistle Bouy. Got ours at Pill at 185 ft on a Glow Green Haze spoon. The only sign of bait was at Pill down DEEP.
Between all the people at the Nook this weekend we covered most of Barkley and nothing to be found except for a fish here and there..... really weird. But still good times and having BBQ salmon and crab for dinner so it's not all bad

We fished Saturday morning. Started at Meares made two passes up to Cree no signs of any salmon. With the weather what it was we decided to push offshore. Stopped at ten mile as I heard reports at 5 were slow. Started at 80 ft picked up a little spring right away. First trip of the year and the first spring, felt pretty good. Decided to drop the lines down to the bottom after 2hours of troilling we had 3 halis and two more springs, a 15 and a 12. We were happy with the fishing but inshore seemed slow for everyone. Going to fish inshore thrusday and Friday hope it picks up.
