Silva Bay report
Trolled down from Whalebone landed 2 nice fish down deep on hoochies .The afternoon it really lit up between Silva bay & just west of Grande Every boat was hooking fish on hoochies & spoons in all depths. Both Saturday and Sunday produced limits of fish in the 20# range ! Fish 120-140 feet depths. This past weekend was the best fishing this year. The fish were full of small herring in the 51/2 to 6 inch range ... Some fish even being picked up in the 200 foot range ..
We have the red pkg herring which is 5 1/2 to 6 inch which would be the perfect bait for this fishery.
Hole in the Wall Report
Quite a few fish taken on Saturday but Sunday was not as good . Herring , white hoochies and spoons, being used.some nice fish in the 30# range also taken in the harbour area ....
Tidal Fraser
Sturgeon fishing is starting to light up in the lower fraser, numbers of fish between 3 and five feet have been reported between the Port mann bridge and the fraser mouth. Eulachons will work the best as we are at the peak of the Fraser Eulachon migration time.
