Sammy,
The few i know who have been fishing on the bank are catching mostly small springs
with the odd decent 8-12lb.
It should heat up soon !

That is good news, we've all been waiting patiently for some larger winter springs to move in.
hopefully some bait arrives and holds those fish !

Picked up two factory around 8 pounds near the flagpole. Seemed to be a few being caught by other boats.

Waterfront was good yesterday. 11 hits, 8 hookups and 6 fish to the boat. Kept 3. Two hatcheries which were 7 and 8 pounds respectively and one wild fish that was an even 10 pounds. Chilly day. Hootchies at 150 and 165 feet. Didn't bounce the bottom today. Instead I tired to keep the gear about 10 feet off the bottom and it seemed to work well. Each fish had recently eaten a large herring. Did not see any bait on the sounder at all but it must be out there somewhere. No seal problems for us but they were lurking around.

We had similar results 8,10,10 lbs unclipped, released 4 small and lost another decent fish to a seal.
after fighting it for about 20mins, it broke off the flasher and hootchie.

I also use Chinooks for seal bait and when I land one use it cut plugged for non resident killer whales (I have yet to boat one).LOL
H.E.H.
Lots of action off Brotchie - 8 hits, lost 2 to seals, 5 popped the release clip and were gone in seconds, and one 15 1/2 pound spring made it into the boat. All of the action was on a Army Truck coyote, dragging the bottom in 100 feet of water on the east side of Brotchie.
