Everyone is fishing full tilt boogey off the west coast of Vancouver Island, BC. Ucluelet has been the hot destination for boat limits of Tyees! We are consistently coming in with between 4 and 6 30 lb plus chinook salmon for the past two weeks. The Southwest corner has absolutly been on fire. 6 inch spoons and 7 inch plugs in the top 100 feet has been producing like crazy. Anything with blue or green patterns.
Due to extremely good fishing, this popular package has been held over! Skipper Dave says it’s his best west coast salmon and halibut fishing vacation package yet:

We have been lucky enough to catch limits of nice chinook salmon and boat limits of nice Halibut while fishing off Long Beach approx 12 miles west of Ucluelet Along Vancouver Islands West coast.
The Bait of Choice are 6 inch Tomic Plugs, 700 pattern, 252, and the 500 were all working quite well. And it kept the shakers to a minimum.
Work through the big tides and you will get your fish, both Salmon and Halibut.
Good Luck on your next fishing trip.

A man visiting Tofino was checking a crab pot, when a fisheries boat darted out from behind a small island.
“Let’s see some ID, and a valid fishing licence,” the officer called over as he pulled up to the man’s boat.
Startled the man replied “Oh – Thank goodness, you really scared me. I thought you were the guy who own’s this trap.”
