How's sockeye fishing in the saltchuck around Vancouver? Has it picked up in the past few days?
There are some more showing. I was out yesterday, got lucky, got onto a school, and hooked six, my guests managed to land 1--not used to the single action reels. I nearly got clubbed in the head with a flasher and pink squirt with a 6/0 hook when they didn't let about an 11 lber take a short run behind the boat.
Other guide boats found a few yesterday morning--and they were fishing hard...like 20 flashers..., but we all spent a lot of time trolling around trying to find and get on a school. It's not like there's tons of them out there, but the river is loaded from what I hear though.
There's a pod of about 25 Orcas out there chasing them around off Sandheads and the T10 marker...there's not a lot of airborne fish which is a bad indicator of how many may be around.
The odd springs is to be found deeper---90 feet.
My gas bill was $100.
