What a sight today. I was surprised by the number of shore fishermen and boaters all circled around an area the size of a football field....I was lucky enough to be on my boat so I had some casting options.
I started at 7 and left at 3:30. By the time I left there was basically nobody left, except a junior dragonboat group that spilled into the drink after a large wake swamped them. A big thumbs up to the guys who boated over to help the little tykes out of the water and back to shore. I would have boated over myself but I had just hooked into a Pink on light spinning tackle and 6lb line and by the time I landed it they were all safely aboard.
The day ended with me hooking 8 landing 4 and bonking 2 (both males)...and no foul hooked fish.
Sorry no pics....realized I left the batteries in the charger this morning :D
Cheers

yeah i was on the shore casting and many people showed up at around 4:30......there wasnt much until about 5:00 when everyone was hooking into many pinks and one guy snagged
onto a coho.... my rod had a bad birds nest where i had to stop but my buddy
landed one that was around 2-3lbs
-
What are you using to catch the pinks ?

Tried a few spoons but it was a pink zinger that worked for me today. Well I did try the fly rod but I was casting like a child so I gave up and went with the spinning rod!

hey zpg i saw that dragon boat take a turn. Yea pink zinger took my fish today caught at five lots of fish around just not biting. ZPG where you off the shore or in a boat.
I was the guy fishing from the bow of a white double eagle with the red top.

Hi Zpg and river-rod dyl,
I was the guy standing at the north end of the beach later on there around 4-5. I had been fishing over by the launch for a bit, saw that canoe go over as well.
River-rod, we talked for a bit and I looked at your birdnested reel.

That's because it's mainly an early morning fishery

Fish Assassin the best times at cates park i think are the early bite and the evening bite around
4 to 5:45
i was there from 1 in the afternoon until about 5:15 and i didnt see anything until
about 4:45 when everyone along the beach was hooking fish
-
Where is cates park located. Have never been there so i have no idea how to get there.
-
go to mapquest for the location. Otherwise it's near Deep Cove.
