Nailed 4 nice springs in SOoke this morning....two were high twenties and 2 were low twenties.  Excellent day for September.  No real heavy bite, but if you were patient and stayed on the spot it paid off big-time. 

Clearly there are still lots of springs moving thru on their way to the Fraser.....and it's my job to intercept them.  lol.

SOunds like they had an amazing day LF!  I moore in Sooke Hrbr MArina for the summers.....we'll pull the boat out at the end of the month and head over to Saanich Inlet for a couple weeks of prawning and crabbing unless the coho show up strong in which case we may stay in Sooke for part of October - Last year we were getting them up to 16lbs!
