Beautiful on the water the last few days when the wind wasn’t up.   Fishing was a bit slow around Vancouver this weekend, but very few people were out fishing.  I haven’t herd of anyone seeing the dolphins in Howe sound in the last week. If it’s like last year the fishing started to pick up pretty quickly after the dolphins left.  There were fish caught here and there in the last few days with a nice 17lb Spring caught at 3rd marker on the West side of Bowen. Other places worth giving a shot include: Grace islands, Tunstal Bay (a few fish caught there),  Vancouver harbour closer to the Capilano river seem to be good on the flood tide as there were a few smaller keepers caught.  Defence islands tends to be where the bigger fish have been getting caught with a 21lber on friday and a 33lb caught a week ago.  With the wind up on Sunday we couldn’t go very far, so we did a couple hours at Hole in the Wall and enjoyed the first run in the boat for this year.  We did great on crab and prawns with the weather looking better this week.  We should get out for some fishing in Vancouver.   In the next few weeks with the weather improving more people will be out on the water  and we will be getting alot more fishing reports and start to get busy doing charters in early April.  Ended up taking some photos while we were out this weekend, check them out below or in the gallery. Good luck.
