Vancouver BC Fishing Charters

This weekend had to be one of the calmest weekends we have seen on the local saltchuck for months. We had some decent results off the south end of Bowen Island on our local trip we had out yesterday. Van Herring had a nice relaxing day with enough bites to keep things interesting. The day started off with a bang with a nice 20 pound chinook salmon in the first hour. After that there was a few more bites, but they ended up being undersize chinook in the 20-24 inch. Its seems like the fishing off Bowen has slowed down a little bit comapared to the great action early in the week. Bon Chovy had a 2 day package charter over to Gabriola with really good results. Fishing was excellent on east side of the strait with lots of nice fish in the 13-20 pound range. The fish were offshore a bit. Long tacks from Thrasher to the Grande were the ticket. There were lots of boats over there and it seemed like everybody got fish. It seems like there is a whack of fish in the strait right now so we should be in for some solid angling for the next couple months, especially over on the Gulf Islands. The Gulf Islands are definately worth going to right now if you have the time and good weather!!!!
