Very good action this evening, tons of fish.

Where were you fishing?  There's been alot of schools moving up river.  Just gotta be in the right place at the right time.

Where was this?  I was out in Richmond 5rd area between 2pm-4:30pm before I had to go back to work, and it was really slow because there was literally 7 FN seiners scooping up everything.  They were soo close to shore that you could cast into the freakin nets!  kind of a piss off because ive gone out now for 15 days and nothing to show for and I see the seiners scooping them up like theres no end.  No one around me caught any either and only few risers.  I am still keeping my hopes up I know I will break my bad luck and land some in few days  :)

Most of the action today was earlier in the day.  I think TheDingo caught the same school that I was into early this morning.  There were non stop jumpers for probably an hour, then nothing.  It must of been before most of the seign boats got out.  To make matters worse, the DFO opened a Seign commercial fishery in the Straight this morning.  They are scooping them all up before they are even getting to the Fraser.   Thursday should be a good evening to fish.  Full moon on Thursday, with high tide at 6:30pm.  Should be a big push of fish coming in with the strong tide.

A buddy and I limited out pretty fast and gave a few away. We also lost about 20 fish between the 2 of us.

I am planning to head out to Richmond tomorrow morning near no 3. road on the rocks.

It will be my first time fishing on the rocks, and my 2nd time finishing in the area.

I will concentrate on throwing smaller lures.

Has anyone here used Gibb's knockoff pink Buzz Bombs?



First time seeing someone copy the Buzz Bomb!

Nice work! Careful with giving away your catch once you hit your limit. My buddy got a ticket last pink season for that...

Thanks for the heads up, but I usually let the person I'm giving it to land it.

Have not tried the Gibbs knock-offs, but been having great success with a new 1.5 inch Buzz Bomb I picked up at Nikka.
Still have some thin 4 inch Original BuzzBombs complete with the instructional poster. Too damn heavy for Pink Fishing. :)

I am telling you, you had to be there to believe this with your own eyes, I have never seen a lure change the fishing so dramatically in such a short time , I added something special to the BB  ;D
