Looks like you needed a couple more passengers!

Well done.

How many “overs” did you have to sort through?!?

These were our first two fish. Both 79.
Just released another and kept a hatch coho on our second double header. Fishing higher now and 4 rods.

Sh*t....I better get out there. By next week they will be too big!

Hope you are all getting out there now it is open. I just wanted to give a bump to the Chinook and Coho diet monitoring we are doing out of UVic. For folks fishing out of Van you can drop off your stomachs at Pacific Angler, Bon Chovy, or Stillwater Sports... The stores should have bags and data cards but we can also mail supplies. Key info to record is species, date, length, catch location, and hatchery/wild. In the absence of our fancy waterproof datacards pencil on scrap paper is fine. Include your email address and each stomach is one entry in a draw for an MR2LA courtesy of Islander Reels.

basically only areas 28 and 29-1, 29-2 open to us Vancouver fishers. Further north too is you like a longer boat trip.

You can't get these at crc. Plus a buddy of mine spent all day there with one under.

Ended up with multiple double headers. Kept a hatch ho and this beauty linger as a parting gift. Well worth the trip!
