August 2011

Summer has finally arrived and fishing remains over the top. Salmon are so thick it’s hard not to limit by noon on both Chinook and Coho. Tyee Chinook (over 30lbs) are becoming more frequent. The masses of Chinook are in the high twenties (27, 28, 29 lbs) and we have had lots of Coho in the mid teens, with the largest to date being 18.5lbs caught by Henry Samson from Fort McMurry, B.C. By mid August and certainly September 20lb Coho are a certainty. Halibut and Lingcod continue to hit the cleaning table in good numbers daily. Prawns and crab are also coming in daily.
