Love the rockfish and Ling Cod videos. Keep it up AWTV!

[@TheStackofhay]

Love the drone shots at beginning and end. Nice touch. Got to give that school of fish lure a try!

[@garyguy6776]

I'm definitely going there

[@Bigfishfun333]

I've NEVER seen them use a dodger....they use FLASHERS, in Canada. Except slowly for pink salmon (in saltwater, I'm talking about).

[@alechansen4763]

How many meters of water are you in?

[@Bigfishfun333]

Normally around 190 feet for bottomfish, and 300' offshore for salmon, but near the kelp bed can be great for salmon as well (especially real early in the day).

[@Ronsgonefishing]

With your knowledge of the fishing grounds in winter harbour., what are the best weeks to fish there for Salmon and Hali’s ?

[@brandonsargent114]

[@barniclebobca]

are you still there ???

[@AtlasVanderbelt]

no matter how good these videos look I know better than to trust an edited film..... I don't think I could ever bear to pay a person to take me fishing :(

[@Bigfishfun333]

Then unfortunately you won't have as good of fishing (catching) as the rest of us will.

[@AtlasVanderbelt]

@@Bigfishfun333 that's funny because I often out fish entire charters and river guides by my self 🤣

[@chrissettlesunclebubbs]

[@240SSONLY]

what is the make and model of that green and gray rod that "lisa" has @15:51 ??? any one know? thanks in advance

[@Broxty]

Sage.

[@240SSONLY]

you sure? the first guys had some fly rods... the Oregon Tackle folks had an actually trolling rod with a standard reel looks like a lamiglass carbon fiber handle but silver colored... i really like the green and gray look, maybe its a custom rod

[@minal8659]

@@240SSONLY Those weren't fly rods. Those were 10ft 6 trolling rods that are popular on Vancouver Island Canada. In Canada the mooching reels are more popular then the level wind/ling counter reels. They are usually paired with long 10'6 rods. The reels are also referred to as "knuckle busters" because they can hurt your fingers if you don't know how to use them.

[@maggieandjim1934]

one of the major problems with our fish going away is the greed of the fishing charter guides and the guides themselves................its time they took a long hard look at their personal greed........as you are fishing yourselves right out of business.........good luck with your greed

[@andyyarrington8602]

maybe go tell the commercial fleet that in canada,,
