A good day on the chuck today, we boated 10 springs varying from 6-12/13 pounds. Couldn't have asked for a better day. Topped it off with an awesome bbq for dinner. Time to get the smoker up and running again !

I can always appreciate a good fish story.

I was fishing the hump off kitty coleman (courtenay area).
I wish I had a bit of a story to tell but it was just a good day of fishing, we caught them all trolling, although we varied our presentations. Started with cut plug (caught 4) a night rider coyote spoon (2) OLR12 hootchie (3) and one on a cop car. 6 were taken using a dummy flasher with the presentation on a 9 weight fly rod (way better fight) and they were all caught between 175-200 feet except for one that took at approx 100 feet on the retrieve to check my gear (which was a double header because my buddy already had one on) Oh yeah my downrigger cable sprouted 4 frays so I had to re-crimp my downrigger cannonball snap each time. I hate losing $25 cannon balls and I use 15 pounders so they snap off easily when it frays, although I put snubbers on and they reduced a lot of the line shock. Thats all I can tell ya!
That's sounds like a good trip BTS. I've never fished off Courtenay before. We fished off of Deep Bay a few times with success. Enjoy the smoked fish .
We need a new rule here on HBC if you anyone posting salmon and prawn threads have to invite us all to the feast. My faverate winter spring hole was vernon bay in the barkley sound.
vernon bay? vernon bay doesn't have any winter spring in it! you must be thinking of dip lock or maybe ucluelet, don't bother trying in vernon bay ain't no fish there
