Here we are at the really mouth Minter Creek really close to the saltwater just below the
0:16
hatchery and we're about three hours before 13 and a half foot high tide and only a few
0:25
people fishing it right now either way lower down or way lower up I guess I'm
0:35
here a little bit a little bit early it's cool to watch the tidewater pushing
0:41
in here and anticipating some some chum to come in the runs been down this year
0:50
in fact they actually closed the closes fishery last Saturday and reopened it
0:57
about a week later they got their their egg take goals and hoping to play with
1:05
a couple chum here this morning as as they come in on the tide would like to be out in the salt chasing them as well doing the anchovy bobber drill but that is still closed my understanding Marine Area 13 over here is still closed
1:25
But yeah, should be fun. Alright so this is pretty cool being able to hook this chum this morning
1:35
I really wasn't sure what to expect with them just reopening it here and really only a few
1:44
chum coming in. But I hadn't been to Minter Creek in like nine years and really wasn't sure what exactly
1:53
I was doing. I was just trying to get hooked up here with a floating jig with a typical little bit of prawn
1:59
so I saw these chums swimming upstream past me you know if seven or eight of
2:07
them and I was casted like 20 feet in front of them and waited and it was like
2:13
three two one bobber down and set the hook on this guy and had this fun little
2:20
fight here this morning jig I was using with just this quarter ounce pink purple tipped with a little bit of prawn just a couple feet of leader And there a few chum around so if you want to go bend a rod it might be worth going
2:37
to Minner Creek a couple hours before high tide and go down below the bridge and see if
2:42
can't get the bob-a-jig thing to go and have a little bit of fun
