There are still needlefish and small herring on the flats.

with all the feed there should be some fish, yet it seems slow.

Hit the wall on Mon night and picked up a 20lber. Man was it fun. Been long time waiting for that hook up. Large Anchovie in purple haze teaser at 60ft. tonnes of bait around.
The last few weeks I have been going to trap shack and otter with no springs of size to show for 3 days in total of fishing. Very slow July this year.
o ya dont forget the sun screen like i did

Nice work! I was there Monday, too - not a sniff. I will agree with everyone else - tonnes of bait.

Got out this morning for a couple of hours. Not a sniff, however, very cool we saw a Minky Whale right off the Chain Islands in Oak Bay. I've seen Orcas here before, but not one of these guys. At one point it came within about 100' of the boat and we got a great look at it. They don't surface for long so we got one photo which I will try to post here later if it turned out good enough.

Do you mean the Fin Whale that was dragged/pushed into Vancouver Cruise Ship terminal recently?
Minke whales are not all that rare as far as populations go....seeing them is a bit different; I have had the chance to see a few of them in my days, but I have NOT seen a Fin Whale which are quite endangered.
