Vancouver BC Fishing Charters

WELL AFTER A MONTH OF CROWDS OFF THE MOUTH OF THE CAP WE WERE PLEASANTLY SURPRISED TO FIND NO OTHER BOATS OUT THERE. THE WATER WAS FLAT, THE TIDE WAS GOOD, AND THERE WAS LOTS OF CHUM SALMON JUMPING AROUND. WE HAD QUITE AN ACTIVE DAY HOOKING 1 LEGAL CHINOOK IN THE TEENS, A HANDFUL OF JACKS, A COHO, AND A COUPLE UNDERSIZE WINTER CHINOOK. THE ONLY REAL PROBLEM WITH THE DAY WAS ALL THE HARBOUR SEALS IN THE AREA. I IMAGINE THEY WERE CHASING THE CHUMS THAT WERE PUSHING THROUGH THE FIRST NARROWS. NEEDLESS TO SAY IT WAS CHALLENGING TO GET A FISH TO THE NET. NICE TO SEE THERE ARE STILL SOME FISH TO BE HOOKED OUT OFF THE CAP THOUGH. WE WILL SEE WHAT THIS RAIN DOES OVER THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS. IF IT STAYS REASONABLY DRY THE FISHERY OFF WEST VAN COULD HOLD ON A LITTLE LONGER..IF NOT WE WILL LIKELY START SPENDING OUR TIME CHASING WINTER CHINOOK SALMON IN VANCOUVER HARBOUR AND THE BACK SIDE OF BOWEN ISLAND.
