July 3 Fishing Update
Finally the unusually persistent Northwest winds have backed off. All week we had do deal with some bumpy water on our charters. Fortunately there was enough fish around to make it worth while on most days. There is reasonable numbers of coho along the West Vancouver as well as some chinook up to 25 pounds. There even seems to be quite a few undersize feeder chinook salmon to add to the action on most days. We were able to pick up a few coho and a couple nice chinook in the middle of Vancouver Harbour this week. We fished up in Howe Sound on Wednesday of this week to avoid the wind but did not have much success. It seems to be pretty slow up that way, but that could change with the arrival of the Squamish Bound chinook salmon. Now that there is some good weather coming our way we will start venturing back out off the Fraser Mouth to target those big chinook salmon that we were fishing for before this weeks wind. Fishing should get back to normal now with the calm winds.
