Hot Fishing Report Ucluelet BC May 19, 2016
Fishing continues to be very hot out of Ucluelet! We have been getting limits of Chinook salmon and the halibut are showing up as well. Fishing has been good all day, in fact the fish have been a little slow getting started and biting regularly as the day goes on. The salmon are biting on the usual culprits for this time of year which include small 3-3.5 inch green and blue Coyote and Silver Horde spoons along with green needlefish hoochies.
Fish have been mostly offshore the past week. Inside and outside Lighthouse bank have been the hot spots though Long Beach and South Bank have also had some good days as well. The spring fishing is great right now and its time to start filling the freezer for the winter again.
