The halibut fishing has been incredible so far this season. Catches have been consistent with fish ranging in size up to 100 lbs. This past week I was out on two halibut charters, limiting out on each trip, the last trip we had  Halibut weighing 90, 75, 45 and three in the 20’s, for a total of 270 lbs. On Sept 08th two local fishermen  were out and bagged a halibut weighing 323 lbs……that is a huge fish.

Salmon fishing for Chinook have been spotty with catches varying from day to day, of course the Orcas have not helped with their appearance on a frequent, almost daily basis.

The northern Coho are just starting to arrive in numbers and should peak towards mid October. Early rains could move that date up by a week or so.
