5 miles. that must be nice. You could go fish them in rough weather. Im a bit sad that I likely missed that first wave of tuna. I will go out on the first chance I get but theres no telling when that will be. Theres some great water out there now. Dang July weather!
 
Tuna out of Bamfield this upcoming weekend

Looking to make a trip this Friday Saturday or Sunday. Weather forecast is looking not too bad at this point. I've got a good crew and capable boat. Been at for two years and know a little bit about putting them in the boat. Looking for buddy boats that can do the run. Hoping to run out of Bamfield ... Be there on Thursday night or Friday night.
 
Ok. That star just a touch over to the right, ok now the other star just hold it there, ok now the ones in the back just come together a smidgin more. PERFECT!

We have elignment! For a glorified pelagic birdwatching and wildlife adventure at the very least.

It looks like Fri and Sat should be good. Sunday afternoon may be a bit more challenging. I plan on hali fishing Sat but in the rare event, I get mine quickly, we might wander out a bit farther. The notch between JDF and Nitinat canyon (closer to Nitinat) is looking good on terrafin.

I think a couple of boats out of Tofino are making the run tomorrow
 
Well it looks like the tuna finally made it waaaayy north, this just in from my brother at the west coast fishing club @ the outpost. The tuna are only a handful of miles from the west side of the Gwaii.....

Right on!!! Can't wait to hear the details. Post pic's of the yellow tails if you have any please :). Congrats guy's :cool:.


I can't stand it anymore. Between work and my son's boat (fun work lol) I just haven't been able to get out there. Looking at Buoyweather, there is a good possibility I will play hooky on Tuesday. Time will tell after the weekend. Looks like a Southwest push is coming and hopefully that will get the good water in closer again.

One of the boats got 30 and gave me the numbers where they were but he was too exhausted to give any more details last night
