West Van shoreline teeming with fish

SUMMER HAS finally arrived and
so have our salmon runs.

By David Korsch
Contributing Writer

The most consistant location
over the last couple of weeks has
been the West Vancouver shoreline
(from Pt. Atkinson to the Capilano
River). Most of the fish taken are
coho (three to seven lbs.), but there
are also a few chinook (10 to 35
Ibs.) and sockeye (four to seven

Ibs.) as well.

The best bait at the mouth of the
Capilano seems to be cutptug her-
ring, as its flashing action catches
the lion’s share.

Use one to four ounces of
weight in close to the mouth of the
river and idle around until you find
where the schools are holding. On
the flood tide and the first half of
the sbb, try around the eastern
monih of the river (in the bay). At
the end of the ebb tide, the western
mouth (near Ambleside) is the best.

The most popular fishing loca-
tion is actually a bit further west,
near the Dundarave pier. This area
is much larger and has slower tidal
movement; therefore, it is a fair bit
easier to fish. All fishing methods
are producting fish. If you are
going to troll hootchies, white or
glow are good starting colors (15’
to 40°).

If vou need any information on
booking a charter with David or
have any questions about the local
fishing, call 980-7907.
