Leaving the boat ramp we will have a 15 minute boat ride to where we will set crab traps. After this we will have a 5 minute boat ride to the area where we will set prawn traps. After this we will go to the fishing grouds either targeting salmon or lingcod and rock cod. We will most likey have 3 hours of fishing then we will return to pick up traps full of crab and prawn.

Start your trip off by setting up a Crab trap or a few Shrimp pots, then head off for some Salmon. Salmon don't wanna bite today? Let's go catch some Rockfish! Lingcod and Snapper are always tasty! Returning to the harbor we can pick up the Shrimp and/or Crab pots we dropped earlier in the day. The adventure is yours, let me be your guide!
