Winter springs on the flats?

[Ghostprof]

We mostly fish out of oak bay in a little tinny. It's our first year trying for salmon and so far things have been better than we expected. I'm wondering now, though, if the winter springs come in along the flats like regular springs do, or if they have trouble with left turns like pinks and coho.

Thanks in advance for any insight!

yes winter springs come in to the flats. You can hit winters all along the waterfront. The area has been very slow the last few weeks but will get better by about mid june. There have been a few nicw fish taken in Oak Bay the last few weeks but very hard to come by.

Thanks, tinboatrobb! Same drill fishing for them, if we're trolling -- spoons or teaser heads somewhere between 40-70', or deeper?

Spoons and hootchies right off the bottom is the ticket.

No real need for bait, bottom bounce with spoons and squirts
