OUTLOOK
The long weekend is here! The weather may not look perfect for tanning at the beach but the winds look good for today and Saturday and though we have overcast skies with a little bit of rain in the forecast this is actually a good thing for most fisheries.
On the saltwater front we are seeing consistent fishing across the board and a few big fish coming in up Howe Sound and around Bowen. We are also seeing more coho in the strait. Check out Jason report below. We have also released another “Learn How with Pacific Angler” Video showing you guys and girls how we rig flashers on our guide boats. This is one of the most critical things you can do to increase flasher movement and make sure you are not jamming up swivels or twisting the heck out of your line. At the end of the video you will also get a sneak peak at Jordan’s flasher bag. If you are just hooking up your flasher with a clip or knot you will not want to miss this video (link to video in this week's blog post).
We will also see a number of fisheries open on the 1st of July. It is the kick off of classic river fly fishing on the Skagit and with this in mind we have Matt’s basic overview of how we fish this system with some fun videos to cover what you need to know if you are planning a trip. Check it out below.
Interior lakes are still fishing “Ok”. The heat is slowing things down a bit. Sean was out and had to work for fish but we are still hearing some really good reports when anglers are in the right spot at the right time, they just seam to be a little less common. This is normal for this time of year and Andre has more info in his lake fishing report.
We will also be looking at the Capilano River and beach fisheries. We are getting some reports from the river and we have been scouting the beach. See Andre and Dustin’s reports below for more details
We are open this weekend so come on by the shop, say hi, and pickup a few things for your long weekend fishing excursions.
