Thanks LC. I'm planning on heading to Renfrew for a few days from 7/10-7/13. Looking to put a few halis in the box and maybe some springs if they cooperate.

By then the Hali's should be in thick, and there should be some good springing. I'm off to Renfrew after this weekend.. Sigh. Time to completley change my fishing habits.

Good question. I'll be staying aboard when I'm out that way next month and would be interested to hear opinions on where it is best to anchor. Is camper protected enough to anchor there? Never been all the way into that bay.

Stay in any of the little nooks within the Port of Sa Jaun basin itself. There are some great little areas that block almost all wind from all directions.
Anchoring out at Camper would not be something I would take a chance on. It's one thing to throw down a Scottsman and lead during the day. But sleeping on an anchor, well thats a differant story. No real need to anchor out in open water. The spots inside the bay are so easy to use and are close to the hotspots that I wouldn't go any where else. Course I won't tell you my favourite spot because it holds only two boats with the proper amount of rhode out.
Have fun finding a spot that suites you best!
I know I will never stay at the campsite. I love anchoring for a few days at a time. Good fun.

It's a 290 Wellcraft, and I suppose the 2.6' is with the o/b's all the way down. I can't seem to find Thrasher Cover on the NOAA/Sat. map. Is it just along the north edge of the harbor?

Fished sunday on the bank-nabbed a 35 and a 50 hali,1 small spring.The coho were thick</u>out there!
monday we rubbed the beach for the morning.1 strike,then nothing.Didn't sound like the springs were around much but some did well.Crab trap came up loaded!threw back two and kept the rest for our limit of twelve.
Tuesday was another bank trip-this time a 50 and a 70lb hali, no springs but again lots of coho.Another full trap pulled out of San Juan.
All in all a great trip if it weren't for losing the truck keys!Note to all- truck keys dont belong on the boat!
