2023 OFFISHALL Vancouver-Howe Sound-Sechelt Reports Thread

[doug78]

Anyone see or hear any news about the fire at the lighthouse at Cape Roger Curtis? A colleague lives on the island and made a post on his Facebook page about it, but did not give any pictures.

It's out. Volunteer fire department is cleaning up the mess now. No news on the source. Saw a picture and it down low on on the beach rocks thankfully and didn't make it to the trees.

If anyone is sick of filtering thru 500 pinks to get a spring, try cut plugging some herring. We had crazy action until we ran out of herring. All springs, not a single pink.

Were you running a flasher too?

No flasher on that side. Not even a dummy. Cut plug on a 6’ leader, 15-20’ behind the clip, that’s it.

Fished Ambleside 1100-1500 today, picked up a 12 pound white, 11 pound red and two pinks. Both springs were caught off the pink apartments mid water column in around 120 feet of water.

My old man made it out for the morning shift at T10. Got into 8 springs, landed 4 of them.

All on bait at 60' on T10 flashers. I think only one pink to boot!

Pretty snotty coming out of north arm. Went to bell and the 2 kids on board turned green within 5 minutes. Over the point Atkinson for 1 way tack along shoreline. Pretty calm over here but expect fishing to suck.

I was pretty green at Pt. Atkinson too on Saturday, and no fish for me and buddy also. Was using a spoon.

Fished SH tonight 4 -7. No bananas spoon one side and bait the other. 50-80 seemed to be the good depth with hits on both sides. Landed two beauties but also lost three (the wife was out of practice.) A little bumpy out there but totally fishable. Tomorrow night should be even better.

Sunday afternoon at the Bell was on fire for us with 6 springs but slow on Monday with a couple of pinks and 3 wild coho released. I'm hoping to fish Sandheads for the first time this season on Friday and Saturday.

Anybody hearing details of a seine opening?

Fishing cap solo just now whilst waiting for more crew and hooked a small spring rubbing the wall just west of the river mouth/green tower. On anchovie at 40’.
