I'm heading out tomorrow, it's been too long. Every time Ive had a chance for what seems like forever I've been foiled by bad weather. Looking good for tomorrow, hoping for a run-in with some feisty Coho. 
Will be interested in how you make out Nauti. I'll give a report tomorrow as to what I find.

Fished today Clover Point/Brotchie from 9:30 till 2PM today. We hooked about 8 Coho, we lost most. LOL We kept two, one about 5, one about 9 pounds. Lots of little immature fish too, one was a Spring, the rest were Coho.
It was be no means super action packed like the Sooke Coho reports but still a good day on the water.

If it's a Spring? it could be a small spawner...
Yes, more than likely Jack's wife, Jill.

Late report...New personal best in two ways for this fisherman last weekend.
Serious late night bite Friday night...10:52pm 8lb 10oz.......baby boy!! Amazingly smooth home birth; mom and baby doing great!
To top that off, my wife actually encouraged me to take our first born out on the boat in order to get some piece and quiet around the house. I didn't argue and my cousin and I took out our 2 year olds out to look for coho on the tide lines Sunday midday. We lost one heavy hitter(glow hoochy in jughead)and no other bites but despite that it was a very successful mission with no crying or whining at all. They had a blast! So, all in all a great weekend; new son and fishing partner!

Congrats A.P.
Been almost a month and a half but made it out. Decided to power up off of church rock for coho. We weren't disappointed. 7 fish in just over an hour Got our limit of 4 hatch/wild and decided to move to constance for feeders. Only caught one fish there. A coho the biggest of the day. Glad to see him swim away.

All i can say is that west of race is a sure thing. Haven't been out front and constance I hear it's hit and miss. Or in my case miss.
My two cents as it were

it seems most coho and springs for that matter hit race rocks and stay out in the shipping lanes or head to the port angeles side, only a small trickle come in close to the Victoria side. The yellow can or the off the edges of constance are a decent bet for coho but the mass of fish will be on the west side of race.
the area between the PA buoy and the RAYCON on the Canadian side are always hot areas for Coho. depths range from about 450-550 and most folks are trolling at between 30 and 45'. of late, with all of this rain, the Coho seem to have zoomed past this area of the strait and many of the local rivers are now plugged with Coho looking for a spot to spawn. we did quite well hugging the international line trolling between these two buoys. you might give it a shot, not that far off shore after all. just pick your weather day and make the run. takes me about 20 minutes from the marina in port angeles.
