Default Port Hardy Salmon Fishing - UNREAL

It's only June 25th and fishing has been amazing ever since June 15th, like off the hook great for Chinook salmon. Even some smaller Coho are showing up now in good numbers and they don't usually show up for a few weeks. Talking to others it seems that the fish aren't early this year, they are just here in larger numbers. This is the best June fishing I have ever seen in my life out here, and it will only keep getting better and the fish getting bigger. 4 days ago caught a beautiful 46lb Chinook, largest of the season taken out of Port Hardy and largest I've heard of on Vancouver Island so far, June always seems to be good to me for big fish

Yesterday we were into over 20 Chinook, today was even better being into over 30 Chinook and quite a few Coho, it was literally non stop action, double headers and for a large portion of the day couldn't even get two rods down. Tomorrow we are going after big halibut, will let you know how we do...Im' sure there will be quite a few hogs coming over the side of the boat if the weather can hold off and stay calm enough to throw anchor tomorrow! Here are some pictures from the past few days!

46lbs, rod broke when hooked it and the woman fought it with just the reel...wow, story for the ages!




One around 28-30lbs caught minutes later
