What an amazing Season and now incredible winter Salmon fishing Begins
September 9th, 2025
Well the 2025 Summer fishing season has now been put to bed and it was one of the best in my 13 years doing this here in Victoria BC, The Chinook salmon fishing was literally "Off the Hook" for the entire year all through the winter, spring and summer with only a few slow days on the full moons and a few blustery days we could not get out to where the fish were. No monster salmon this year for us with 27lbs being the biggest fish this year but lots in the high teens and a few in the twenties in May and June and August. Halibut was better this season than last year but fish on average were much smaller and we also had to downsize our gear as the maximum size is only 102cm and this may be some of the reason for the smaller fish in general. We still landed and released a lot of way over sized fish so fingers crossed the halibut biomass is increased this year and our max size in increased for next years season.
Lots of American and Canadian as well as quite a few from Irland, New Zealand, Australia and Germany this year and as usual August I was slammed and most days did a minimum of 2 charters and over half the month did 3 charters a day. Lets hope they allow for 1 hatchery in June and July next year so we can spread that rush over 3 months instead of 1.
Next August 2026 is already over 50% booked and May and April are starting to get bookings as well. If you are planning to get some Salmon with your group you may want to look into getting those dates solidified early this year.
Salmon have been taking the the chartreuse wee-gee with a Chartreuse flasher with moon glow. LingCod and Rockfish are closed now until the 1st of May.
Halibut fishing has been about a 50/50 success rate since the end of August as it seems a lot of fish have migrated out of the area, Salmon Bellies, Big Herring, Octopus and Mackerel work great. Dog fish are their normal 3 to 6 fish per set and manageable.
Now that we are in the "Off Season" it is a little easier to get some booking times, starting at 8:00am with the later light in the mornings and no evening tours this time of year. If you go to the Photos page you will see two new areas Summer 2025 and the rest of Summer 2025 (can only load 250 pics per section) have a look at just how wonderful a fishery we have here in Victoria BC and just how happy you can be holding a fish!
And Thank you everyone for Choosing KingSize Adventures and Making Victoria BC your Destination for an outdoor adventure!
Look forward to seeing you on the water!
