Somas-Stamp River
System. - Sport fishing in the area for charter guides and sport
fisher persons has been much better up until the middle of September
than what it was at the end of August and during the Port Alberni
Salmon Derby which took place at the beginning of September. The big
rains the last two weeks of August moved a lot of Chinook and Coho
into various rivers and creeks..... 24th September

As the “dog days” of summer have reached
us here in the North-Central Wisconsin (Wausau) area, fishing has
remained good for a variety of species; low-light periods have
continued to hold a strong bite, but plenty of fish are available

from, the North-Central Wisconsin area is one of the finest fishing
destinations in the Midwest! Some nice panfish, including slab
crappies and jumbo bluegills, are finding their way into local

working, as are small jig and rubber combinat ....

Hot summer temperatures have arrived,
and with them the exceptional fishing the greater Wausau area has to
offer. A host of species are active right now with something for
everyone available! Downed timber has been a magnet for panfish as

Alberni Inlet, Barkley Sound, Ucluelet (West Coast)
Somas-Stamp River
System. June has been a great month of fishing for sport anglers and
salmon fishing charter guides off of Ucluelet and in various areas
of Barkley Sound. To date most of the Ucluelet fishing for both
salmon and halibut has been fairly close to the beach. Barkley Sound
salmon fishing has been best from Vernon Bay out to Effingham. The
Port Alberni Inlet is quiet but Sockeye Salmon are entering the
Somass River daily and making their way through the counters and
entering Sproat Lake and Great Central Lake.

Fished the Maury River on 5/29 and
caught 60+ smallmouth on wacky rigged , weightless senkos and 5"
finess worms with an 1/8 oz spot remover hook. The best color is

The
best action has come from shallower water containing weeds or wood
in close proximity to the shoreline. Points, especially those
extending further out into the lake or river and adjacent to shallow
bays and backwaters are also holding fish.

Port
Alberni Inlet, Barkley Sound, Ucluelet (West Coast)
Somas-Stamp River
System. June and July are great sport fishing months along the West
Coast. The migratory fish returning to the south of this area should
be in great numbers as commercial fisheries in Alaska have been cut
by 50%. This will put more salmon swimming in B.C. waters.
