April Spot Prawning
Westview Marina & Lodge
The prawning is over the top good! Limits of 200 per day are the norm. April Spot Prawning and Winter/Spring fishing are well worth your efforts.
Saltwater Fishing Licences - Yes they are all on line now. Not to worry. Westview Marina has been chosen to be an “Independent Access Provider”. We have all the types of Saltwater Licences & Stamps available here at the Marina as in past years. All we need is your photo ID (drivers licence, passport, etc.) & of course payment to get you legally out there fishing.
More Good Fishing/Catching News - The projections for local returning Chinook have jumped from 65,000 to 85,000. That is an all-time record!
Stay tuned - there are motions being but forward to Department of Fishery and Oceans (DFO) by the Sports Fish Advisory Committee (SFAC). The objective of these motions is to increase harvest opportunity of local Chinook that are not needed for brood stock while at the same time protecting sensitive areas where non-enhanced stock exist.
Also the projections for Sockeye moving down the West Coast of Vancouver Island (WCVI) this season has jumped from 23 million to something north of 70 million. Yes we will get a sockeye opening this year. Limit will most likely be 2 per day 4 possession. Sharpen those hooks.
