“The Rod, The Song, The Chinook” ? TD Coastal Adventures – Campbell River, BC ?️ July 20 Sunset Charter ? “Dust in the Wind” playing as the reel screamed… ⸻ Some trips leave you with fish. This one left us all with goosebumps. The sea was glass. Sunset glowing behind the islands. The kind of evening where the water holds its breath. Mark and his family were on board The Barb, chasing memory, chasing meaning. He said to me, quietly: “All I want is to fight one good Chinook before the light fades.” Not even five minutes later… Bang. Rod down. Reel ripping. The No Bananas Spoon we’d set at 120 ft in 140 ft of water went off like a cannon. Mark got his fight. And the Chinook didn’t give it up easy. It dove, it twisted, it tail-walked and slammed the rod like a steel freight train from the deep. He fought it like a warrior—and he won. But that’s not what made this night legendary. A second rod popped. Another big fish. Mark’s teenage son looked unsure. It was quiet. You could hear the wind stop. I leaned over and said: “Step up, son. This is your moment.” He did. And with the whole family watching, he fought that Chinook like he was born to guide. 14 lbs. 75 cm. Keeper. A memory burned into the soul of that boy forever. ⸻ ? Here’s what you need to know: • Location: Lighthouse Ledge • Depth: Fishing 120 ft in 140 ft of water • Lure: Custom No Bananas Spoon • Result: Two epic Chinooks. One legendary family moment. One fisherman became a father. One son became a man. ⸻ ⚠️ The big Chinooks are here NOW. You’re either on the boat… Or you’re reading someone else’s fishing story. ? July & August are almost fully booked. ? Private charters only – 4, 5, and 6-hour trips available. ? All gear, tackle, and fish cleaning included. ? Depart from Slip 27, D-Dock – 1374 Island Hwy, Campbell River ? Book now through Fishbooker or text Captain Dan directly. ? Catch the moment.

? TD Coastal Adventures – Fishing Report ? The Hump – Lower Section, Campbell River BC ?️ July 15, 2025 ? Target Species: Chinook Salmon ? Lure: Custom No Bananas Spoon ? Depth: 195 ft ? Zone: The Fish Highway ⸻ Report: The Fish Highway was firing today off the lower section of The Hump, and two seasoned guests — Oleg and Igor from Toronto — made it count in true TD Coastal fashion. Both Chinook strikes came on a custom “No Bananas” spoon running deep at 195 ft, dialed in tight just above the shelf. These were classic Campbell River fish — aggressive, thick-bodied, and built for battle. Igor was up first, locking into a deep-running slab that gave him a full 20-minute slugfest before surfacing. After an epic fight, he chose to release the Chinook with full respect — a true West Coast moment. Oleg followed with a war of his own. Four hard runs and deep dives later, he brought his fish to the boat clean, calm, and earned. Both strikes hit within the same hour — clear sign that the Chinook are staging deep and tight on the bait lanes. The key takeaway today? ? Fish deep. Troll slow. Stay on the seam. And if you’ve got a No Bananas spoon — use it. If not, book with Captain Dan and I’ll bring one. ⸻ Current Notes: • Bait balls showing tight to bottom in 180–210 ft • Best bite time: 7:30–9:15 AM • Tide swing: Moderate flood tide • Water clarity: Good • Wildlife seen: Eagles, porpoises, and one curious seal ⸻ Captain’s Note: “This wasn’t just a good day — it was a day the sea remembers. Oleg and Igor brought patience, power, and respect. That’s what Chinook fishing on the coast is all about.” — ? Now Booking: Chinook runs continue strong through late July. ? Sunset Big Fish, Morning Missions, and Salmon & Seals charters available. ? **hidden content** |
