Lots of spawn at point Holmes in close. I jigged half bucket from river boat. Look for the 2 yellow buoys in close and cast out to the buoys. Watch out for the sea lion they are aggressive had a few bump my boat from underneath.Anyone had luck jigging for herring from shore?
Hi NealeI just moved to comox... took a job at the comox valley marina as the dock manager. Would love to meet some local fish nutz. Please stop and say hi. I need to learn the local tacks for trolling. Neale
Try off the bottom of the Flora Is reef. But make sure you weight your traps well as there can be a nasty current .. Lings-- ? Look for dropoffs in the 35 to 100 ft range.Hey Everyone,
Family and I are bringing the boat up to hornby for the first time this year and was wondering if anyone has any suggestions for prawns and/or ling around hornby? We are from Victoria and usually just prawn the saanich Inlet so I was planning on putting some weight in the traps but was also wondering about potential areas to try and depths?
Cheers,
Good to know! Are prawn ever caught in the 225-275 range in the area? I just have 2 400ft lines and it probably won’t be worth it to upgrade for a couple days of prawningThey prawn deeper up here around 350 feet not 225 feet like saanich there are no squat lopsters here.
fished east of the can at Lazo, lots of little coho and springs no keepers. How deep and what were you using at Kitty? Likely headed the monday.Got out for the first day of Chinook retention and was rewarded with a keeper within ten minutes. Fished near Kitty Coleman.
