Caught a Bunch of Springs this year in Grants bay (WH) with Squid in there bellies! Want to try and target them next year, too bad through that we are not allowed to fish with lights...
Where at?In 2019 we came accross Chinooks feeding on squid, we switched over to flutter Jigs and Boom the fishing was on. We did catch them on the troll but like 1 an hour. But Jugging was the key. Now if they are feeding on squid its Jigging for me. And it's far more exciting
Where at?
Are Chinook in Puget Sound caught with squid in them?
I'd love to hear what makes them stand out on the sounder. Very interesting.Yes, most definitely. This year it was very common to see them in stomachs. Easy to spot them on the sounder and match the hatch.
BamfieldWhere at?
And what the hell does that have to do with us losers down here?! Showoff.The squid used to come into the inlet early season(May-June) every year up on west side of the Gwaii. We had a blast... could scoop them live from the dock and would fish from the dock with livieys honking on springs. Would go out in morning and whack bottom fish then spend the afternoons with your guests on the dock(if they were cool and down for it) wailing on chinooks with full bar service.
There’s squid in the pacific somewhere.. guess that’s about it. Bored, looking forward to a trip up the sound soon. Would report something but haven’t been out in weeks. Certainly appreciate the reports though. For those that winterization their boats... your missing out. Sashimi grade winters, prawns and crab to be had... and with way less traffic!And what the hell does that have to do with us losers down here?! Showoff.
Any keepers ?11-3:00 at Gardner this afternoon. 8 fish landed including 3 double headers. Skinny G glow, 200’ was the ticket. It got to blowy to fish solo. Fun action!
Unfortunately not for me. A friend had 1 keeper in 4 though. A little farther North at the south side of HuttAny keepers ?
Weather looks decent tomorrow, I'm gonna go have a look around the freighters.
