Thread: Vnacouver Island fishing 2012

Winter springs this year have been slow. With the return of the summer springs from the north things have been picking up.



Hurrcain ridge to the south.




Also got a 'new' boat. Campion Alert 180 hard-top


The real big springs are starting to show up and the Sockeye have been reported to have been showing up in Port Alberni. should be a good season for fish again this year!

Beautiful part of the world. Those look tasty!

This is the incentive i need to drag the boat out...

^^^ yep, fishing has been good. I'll be fishing out of pedder bay all next weekend. Gonna be looking to get my first halibut.

Fishing has been getting better.

Fishing has been real good off S. Vancouver Island. Lots of Springs are coming in and the Coho's have showed up so it has been non-stop action.
Between my gf and I, we got 8 springs 2 being white springs(released 5), and a dozen or so Coho. Most Coho were wild and you are only allowed to keep hatchery coho so we relesed all but a couple.
