Fishing Report Harbourside Lodge June 21 2018
There have been some good fish caught in the past week. A 28lb spring on the Wall at dusk three days ago had some smiles on the boat, as it was the first ever salmon caught by the guy on the rod.
There are plenty of feeder springs in the 5 to 15 lb range, as well as larger fish in some areas. Swale Rock and Austin & Cree are producing as well as the Wall, Aguilar Point and along Brady’s Beach, along with the deeper water close to Kirby and of course you can head offshore for some bigger spring and hali. One of our charters last week saw three good hali come in with the largest at 114cm. The hali were all caught on a mix of herring and salmon bellies.
A mixture of bait and hardware is the current choice. Small 3.5” spoons and Glow White hootchies and green splatter back hootchies seem to be working best.
Our store and fuel are up and running, and the weather has been really spectacular, so come to Bamfield and wet a line.
