whats happening

Well prawns seem to be great in some areas,while in others anglers are wondering where the prawns are.In some areas prawns seem to be molting right now wich makes sense as the numbers are getting better daily as they grow new shells and come out of the sand.The same thing happened last year at this time.I have tried shallow water and also beetween 350-400'deeper was better.Your prawn production will pick up daily,try and leave your gear out through a tide change.
Nice Fish
It was nice to see some nice size salmon come in today.James and crew had a fish over twenty pounds,The Brachs also did well with one of there fish landing in at over twenty pounds.One lucky angler had four fish on board,so guess what sharpen your hooks and try and get out as there is a nice run here right now.
Hot Spots
Grant Reefs- Big boys
Coho Pt-No slouch
Westview-Mill-producer
All these three areas have had produced nice fish in the last few days,hoochies and spoons 130-200' go get'm Sam Out....

waiting in the wind

Welkl hopefully we wil get a chance to put our prawn traps out soon.This wind is getting on everybody's nerves.Look for the weekend to finnaly give us a chance to get out and set some gear.
Lake Report
The lakes started off strong in the early part of April but with this cold, the fishing has tailed off.Inland was spotty this past weekend with 45 degree water temp, as was Lois with the same water temp.Have your gear ready because as soon as it warms up a bit the fishing will pick up.Powell lake was also steady with a few anglers getting there limit.
Toba
There were a few fish taken in Toba recently,this should also pick up.The prawning was good according to the anglers that made the trip.
L.E.H. NOW IN gotta go....Sam Out...
