Northwest gales have kept our fishing inside Kano Inlet for the last week and consequently Chinook action has been a bit limited. Chris Bridges’ 30 pounder won last trip’s trophy and a 25 pounder is currently the leader for this trip with a day and a half to go. This doesn’t mean that the big ones aren’t still around, it just means that we aren’t presently able to get to the usual spots. The same circumstances apply to halibut fishing although a few of the “chicken“ variety are still showing up on the board.
Coho are saving the day at the moment and they have moved into the Inlet in numbers. While they are not usually accorded the same status as the big Tyees, they are still a great sport fish and a real thrill for our novice anglers. Not bad on the barbeque either!
No significant change in the weather until mid week. Warm and sunny in the Inlet and blowing 30 knots outside.
