IN MAY & JUNE there are lots of Columbia River Chinook in the Inlets and Sound feeding on the massive schools of bait that draw these fish into Esperanza Inlet & Nootka Sound. 15-25lb Springs are the norm with the occasional 30+lb Tyee Chinook salmon.

May 2, 2017 Karl Limits with Two Nice Springs. He also caught a 42lb Halibut & 3 ling Cod. Karl says "the BEST spring time fishing he has ever had" Yes the Chinook are out there. Both these fish were hatchery clipped. Likely this pair of Springs are from the Columbia River hatchery system.	4 Happy Fishers caught 4 Halibut in less than an Hour at the 171 hole Just off Esperanza inlet. Lots of Great eating 20 - 42lb Halibut

“We are very fortunate to have some of the Best Bottom Fishing on ALL the West Coast.

We also have generous limits on ground fish. A mixed daily bag will fill your fish box with Halibut, Yellow eye, Greenling, Cabazon, Canary, Red Bondeg, Aurors, Quillback, Black vermillion Rock Fish and lots more.

The Evans family went to the Chicken Farm off Yellow Bluff in Esperanza and loaded up. They also caught 6 nice Chinook.	Another great "WESTVIEW early season mixed BAG" -Yellow Eye, Halibut, Carney Rock Fish, Ling Cod & a 24lb Chinook caught while trolling back to the Marina on the bottom of this 2.5Ft X 4ft wheel barrel of fish.

Shared Charters: Each season we have groups of 2 fishers who would like to add 2 more fishers to one of our large (30ft)Vessels to take advantage of the reduced party of 4 rates. It’ a GREAT DEAL & has worked out WELL!
