  As can be seen by these happy lovely women who landed a bunch of nice winter springs and took home their Limit of fish The weather can be a challenge but if you get out you get rewarded!

 20+ fish per day is a "normal" day on the water right now with fish averaging around 6 pounds with the odd 11 and 12 pound fish. 

 The fish have had a mix of Shrimp, Sandlance and Herring inside their stomachs to what I have found is that a lure that works great today may not work tomorrow or even one that was hot an hour ago goes cold and a different spoon all together works that did not touch a fish earlier. So be ready to make some changes and run a few different sets of gear and switch up if things slow down. Always start with a Sandlance look alike and a small herring look alike and see what they prefer and go with it until things slow down.

 There are some fish in close but don't expect to get 20+ fish a day 4 or 6 is a good day in close right now with the banks holding much more fish. If we get a few calm days in a row that could change as the in shore areas tend to get better with some calm seas.

 I will be at the Victoria Boat and Fishing Show this weekend Feb 21-22-23 at booth 501 and you can sign up for a chance to win a 1/2 day fishing charter for 4 people ($735 value)

 Hope to see you at the show or on the water soon.
Tight Lines!
