Vancouver Saltwater Salmon Fishing Report
Not too much to report this past week. As usual there are pockets of feeder chinook, aka winter chinook, cruising around in Vancouver Harbour and up Howe Sound. This past week seemed a little slower, there were some nice fish caught, but you really had to put your time in. Of course this can change in literally one tide change, so as you know, just head out there if the weather is good.
Speaking of weather, it does look good for this weekend. The winds are minimal and we have daytime temperatures in the double digits, so should be pretty comfortable out there. Likely even calm enough to head across and check out the Gulf Islands.
We did some test sets for crab the other day, pretty quiet on that front, as usual for this time of year there are lots of smalls in the traps. Prawning has been decent but there has been a lot of pressure in the usual spots, so you might need to do a bit of exploring.
See you in the shop or on the water,
