April Continues to be Good!
Bonzai Dave here.... Lots of Chinook nice and close. Love fishing the lighthouse and Red Can. Pretty average April fish with 7-10 lbs keepers. There have been a few big fish around. We pulled an 18.6 lb and another local guide has pulled another couple big fish with one over 20. The halibut are biting, the Lingcod our abundant and the Chinook fishing is really fun and the meat is fatty and tender this time of year. Been lucky so far with weather. Coming down again for this w

April Fishing is on Fire
Come to Ucluelet for a fishing charter and get some food while you can. Good numbers of Chinook. Sizes vary widely with an average 8-10 lb and hitting 16 lb on the larger side. Halibut is open and size limit increased this year to 112 cm giving opportunity to catch a hog again! Caught 104 cm yesterday that weighed in at 35 pounds and we would have had to release it last year. Come get some halibut! Lingcod and rockfish are open! Get out here and fish with Bonzai Dave on the B

We are still waiting on the major spawn but he herring are piled up in huge bait balls. So bi

February Fishing Ucluelet
Fun Early Fishing Fishing around Ucluelet in February can be all-time! Fishing the Pacific this time of year can be epic and this year has been excellent! I have been fishing for crab, surf perch, salmon, and have been collecting shellfish. I am an adversary for lowering your food cost but more importantly eating real food and feeding my kids good sustainable protein. Dungeness Crab : Excellent fishing for the last 2-3 months. The best crab bait is fresh or fresh frozen carca
