Stupid Fishing in Port Renfrew

[Tyee]

Chinook are off the wall in Renfrew, 10 to 30 lbs. Good fishery to start with "going to die keep it " going to live let it go" We have let most wilds go, but kept the ones that are going to die. It is insane to see this many Chinook and enough hatchery fish to keep for the table to feed the family. Is this all too do with the Alaska fishery cutting back ? It's MAY 12
:biggrin:

were you out last weekend?? i just got back from renfrew and didn't get into any fishing talk with the buddy's.
sounds early to me for a good run like that.

[steelheadSABO]

sound like it should be a good year

[Bow Walker]

There are reports of them showing up off Sheringham Point too. Movin' on down...

[Gunner]

There will be a record run of early chinooks to the Columbia this year,I bet your hatcheries turn out to be Yankee fish! Gunner

You bet Gunner we had them last year as well call them purple backs and they are definatly yank fish,last year we were killing them at this time of year but they were up at nitnat this year there's a ton of bait around home base so thats where the fish are.Makes for a much better gas bill lol.

Fished all weekend and got lots of halli on the ebb tide then salmon on the flood very good fishing oh ya a endless amount of crab.

Tight Lines.

[Sooke Hunter]

Where were you fishing.....Logan, East Point or somewhere in between?? Sounds great!!

[Johnnybear]

Great reports guys keep it up.

The weirdest thing I just got a few reports today that guys are hammering them off of the fingers here on this side of the rock.

I'm planning on heading out to the west coast on this long weekend coming up. Sounds like a multi species trip:grin:.

The bears are taking a pounding out there this week seen quite a few 1 real good one i'll see if i can get the pic forwarded to me .

[scott h]

Quite a coincidence that the fishing is picking up with the 15% alaskan and 30% wcvi troll fishery cutback eh ?
Heading up to Masset in the next few weeks and will let you know if the same holds true for seven mile and a few of the other hot spots up there .

Apparently there's springs up in Port Hardy Already!!! hope the fish come early this year so I won't miss out as I might be going to Hakai Pass for the summer to work.

[Johnnybear]

There are good reports coming in from Tofino and Ukky area's as well. Guy's are nailing them off Nanaimo too.

[blindguy]
