Well The anglers that have been out especially locally have seen what the unessasarry Chinook non-retention looks like. Both sides of Harwood and Coho Pt have loads of healthy Chinook upwards of 30lbs.The waters North (Toba, Homfray) open areas also producing nice fish but the average size is not so big. Waters south of Powell River( Thunderbay, Fairview Bay and Jervis Inlet) this area has had steady fish coming in this week and last. Powell River Outdoors gets many reports from anglers on almost a daily basis when the weather permits ,thanks so much for the reports. If you want to see what kind of population of Chinook we have here, simply drop a line on the North end of Texada, if you cannot catch several Chinook you must be shopping at Cabelas or a box store lol . For the few anglers that are going out Chinook fishing locally has been very good and will continue to September, so if you get a chance gooooooo,.ps the Halibut was delicious.

Chinook tactics.

  • DO NOT NET FISH YOUR NOT GOING TO RETAIN
  • Handel fish as little as possible
  • trolling speed 2.5mph
  • use 15lb cannonballs
  • fish the tide change
  • for lures and gear(stop in at your local shops) shop outside the box
  • It is not a crime, to net a fish or take a photo. If you don’t like the way anglers are fishing stop in at PRO Monday-Saturday 9-5 and you can help educate. This works much better than playing on your keyboard like i am doing now. D.F.O. has created such a cluster F***** ,with regulations its a wonder anybody is fishing anymore. What a shame, shame shame!
