If the tide is around a 1 foot you can have a problem. The nd of the ramp drops off and leaving between the break water can be only 3 feet of water.You need to go dead center.

that a good idea all the way down the river from McDonald.
I get the hebegebes when I see the top few inches of a full length logs stuck in the mud at 45 degrees....miss seeing that in the chop while running down the side....yikes!!!!!!.
sure been quiet with respect to reports off Bowen, i think when the dolphins came in , it scared the salmon around. We were out last weekend and very few boats and fish around, i also heard that some guys got hassled by indian crabbers off Vancouver? Seems most locals are sealing at Thrasher

Still a few springs around Cammer--just gotta find 'em . Howe Sound is starting to kick out some Squamish fish I hear. Thrasher is producing quite a few. But it's not "hot".
weather is throwing A big F&%K IN the weekend plans, my bro says 4 foot waves in Howe sound, rain tomorrow now, i agree still fish there as we did have one definite keeper on last weekend but far from the hot fishing 3 weeks ago, we need good flat weather to get to thrasher and that doesnt look to promising, keep reports coming FM

I hear you Cam. There is just enough wind to keep me around the house this weekend. If I were a weekend warrior, I could tough it out-- but having the rest of my life to fish, I go when its-a-nice![^]
Also, I sure dont miss the gongshow at the ramps on the weekend either... Aw yes, Life is Good!

Just got reports from a couple of fishin' friends who are "in the know" and Thrasher produced a few large fish today and there was some good action, where they limited guests by 11 am. Us "Vancouver Guys" are lightin' it up over there...for reportedly "not hot" fishing over the last while.

Well, just off the water from the QA-Bellbuoy area. Nothing much going on over here. However, it sounds like it's ON at Thrasher. A few boats have multiple fish on board....one boat reporting 5 on board as of 2 pm and they're still fishing.

Water was nice over there, less than a foot. It was miserable here though. Looks like we might be done for on this side of the Strait....water is coloring up from the increasing freshet and intensifying algae blooms. Tomorrow looks like a bust...
Check out the forecast...

Yesterday at the QA got pretty rough around 1245. Wind was building from SW and it got too sloppy to fish comfortably. We moved to the Bell Buoy where it was fine. Things settled down over the next couple hours. By 330, it looked like the trip back from Thrasher would have been a lot more pleasant!
