#NOOTKA SOUND FISHING REPORT 2012 HOW TO#
How to Get Over C-19 Cabin Fever NOW!- This is the season to enjoy our local British Columbia salt waters and you will not find any better Fishing/Catching and limits than Nootka Sound and Esperanza Inlet. In fact the last 2 weeks in August usually produce the largest Chinook of the season, especial up in Esperanza Inlet. We expect this trend to continue well into August. In July more frequently 2-3 times a week 30-35.5lb. Tyee started showing up on the cleaning tables in June weekly 30-33lbs. Why, one reason for sure is there are no commercial fishing for Chinook north of our area all the way up into Alaska. Tyee catching report to date: It is the best year for large Chinook since 2012. Bottom fishing has had increasing result when trolling deep with the newer swim bait with a bit of Blood Tuna scent and the LED blinking bottom-bouncing lures with a chunk of herring on the hook. Look alike lures like- Coyote, Coho Killers, Yo-zuri Turds, Skinny G & Wee G in the various glow patterns all are working well. The best catching baits for Salmon to date have been 5.5 anchovy with green/glow and other glow header. You will be Happy with the resultsĬheck with the DFO web site for specific local details, or stop by our Westview Marina & Lodge in Tahsis for DFO charts, regs and details on hot spot locations. Surprisingly the prawns have also returned in good numbers and size.
Add to that the abundance of our local Halibut, Lingcod and many other types of bottom fish gives fisher a real opportunity to fill your fish boxes. Most season the return stretches into and past Labour Day in September when the large rain events occur that pull the fish up into the spawning grounds.īest Fishing Salt Water Regulations in BC: Additionally we are the rare area (25/125) on all of BC coast that remains at limits of 2 Chinook per day with 4 possession and 4 Coho per day with 8 possession. Through out late July and August the salmon continue to move towards the may streams and river that they are homing into to spawn. Yes, we have some of the most productive inside water catching areas on the west coast. The results of this salmon production is this summer 50,000+ Chinook and 20,000+ Coho will return to our inside local waters to spawn. Combined these facilities put 4+ million Chinook fingerlings and 1.5 million Coho in our local waters annually. Most importantly we have 4 Volunteer Salmon hatcheries and one Federal Salmon hatchery here. Mid July & August maybe the best time for Fishing/Catching in our area.
