On the Rocks

Langara Island Fishing Resorts - August 21, 2007
 

Langara Island continues to produce solid fishing. Langara Rocks—at the 400 to 500 foot shelf—has been the most consistent performer over the past two days. Anywhere from 20 to 70 pulls seems to work with the fish tending shallow in the morning and running deep in the afternoon.

Kris Kucher has won the fish of the day twice in a row, parting veteran guest Pat Cooper with a bit of cash to boot. One of the keys to successful fishing is patience at this time of year. Those who pick a spot, study the tide-lines and stick it out, are rewarded by a nice bite.

Humpback whales have been very active in the area. It’s truly stunning to see something that huge come 10 feet out of the water.
