VANCOUVER FISHING REPORT, DEC 10

The local saltchuck has finally started to show some signs of life over the last 10 days. The chinook salmon are still primarily undersized but there is the odd nice keeper in the mix. The harbour has had some reasonable activity this week with an increased amount of bait starting to stack up on south shoreline of English Bay. Like usual in the winter months it is crucial to find the bait in order to get consistent results. We have had our success running our riggers between 75 and 115 feet trolling coyote spoons. The backside of Bowen Island has kicked out a few fish this week but is not worth the run right now. The reports towards Victoria and up north towards Courtenay/Comox have been very good so it bodes well for a strong winter fishery in Georgia Strait.

Crabbing has been really good in English Bay. We have been dropping our traps between 45-90 off of Jericho, Spanish Banks, and Stanley Park. Crab traps are dropped on every charter.

We are coming into prime time for winter chinook fishing in Vancouver. The months of December, January, and February can have some of the best action of the year. Ask about our great winter rates and promotions!
