I was out last saturday fishing off of Ambleside in West Van. Hooked and lost 4 coho( don't ask). Was trolling with coyote spoons. I hear things have slowed down since all the rain we had last week. Fish likely went up the Capilano river.  I think there could be more fish around though, just need to find them.

Good luck.

Shoulda fixed that hole in the net Salty ;). Those ho are a little smaller than the Port Renfrew variety. Sounds like you need ur netting partner to fill the fish cooler and empty the reeb cooler ;D.

My buddy got a 10lb white and I saw another about the same size caught today near the T-10.

I'm heading out on Tuesday to hit the 1 pm tide, will post a report. What has been producing for you guys ? anchovies, hoochies, with/without flashers ? It's been a while and I need a refresher...

Anchovies, Spud!! with a flasher, between 30-60ft. Make sure you're there to fish the slack. Good luck!!

Change of plan, I'm going on Wednesday morning, was going to go to either QA or T-10, if nothing shows up, will try the Cap mouth and west-van shoreline for coho.

Thanks for the help blueback.

I think I know where it is, but can anyone tell me exactly where the T-10 marker is (GPS coordinates ?), I know it's off of the fraser, but would like to know that I'm fishing trhe right place.

Im actually also wondering where the T-10 is. Ive fished a black and yellow(or maybe all yellow, been awhile) buoy called the QA basically straight out from the North arm of the Fraser. Is this the correct spot? Any luck out there Spud? I'm planning on trying either out there or the bell buoy very soon.

There were 4 of us that tried to get out today, it was too rough for our little boat, so we ended up at the mouth of the Cap, we caught and released a pair of undersized chinooks (way undersized). We had a good sized coho on the line but lost it due to miscomunications with the "crew" regarding riggers. We also had another fish that we lost just after the "hook set." The two chinooks were taken on small spoons without flashers, but the others were taken on anchovies with flashers.
