- Vertical Jigging for Chinook (King) Salmon and other bottom species. I got onto a Salmon pattern pretty early into the morning which made for a great kayak fishing trip.

Wow! Calm water, salmon , the day we all long for!
Another super cool video 💥💥💥
That first clip is insane, one take for all that action!
Great mention! I often feel like I need cut clips assuming people don’t want to see the longer video form… but perhaps I should? Thanks for watching and the comment! J
Awesome video! There's no better feeling when a salmon hammers a jig! 🙌 we're heading out for an evening fish tonight!
You going strictly for salmon? Good luck tonight!
@BCFishingJournal thanks! definitely Salmon is the primary target, hopefully get into some ling and Rockfish later on
This guy is changing the game!
Alberta what do you know about ocean fishing?! Haha! I’ll take it though. Thanks for the note bro! Talk soon.
Try fishing at East Sooke, its the best time of the year and start your way at Cheanu Marina to Beachyhead. I like the Clarity of your video, truly enjoying to Watch.
Thanks for the feedback and suggestion! I’ll try that area if sooke when I get out there, not sure when yet. Have you ever fished the Chum in the Sooke Basin from a kayak?
i gotta get out there and try this someday!
You have a kayak here in Nanaimo?
Great job! Ever think about switching to a casting reel? Much easier on the drop and line counters could be to your advantage. Fish on!
Another Wonderful kayak fishing, I hope I can see you kayak fishing in West/North Vancouver sometime soon. 😃( cuz I live not far away from there ) I wanted to move to Chiliwack from Burnaby before but after I watched your kayak fishing videos, I have changed my mind moving to Nanaimo 🤣 ... Did you use L'il Nib Jigging Lure? If not, what did you use? If so, I would like to know what SIZE of L'il Nib Jigging Lure did you use? 2.2oz? 3/4oz?? or 5oz??? 😁
Yes, using Lil’ Nib 2.2oz. If your fishing deeper with more tidal current, use the larger one.
Where were fishing?
Awesome video what pound test do you use when catching these salmon in the ocean
Thanks for the feedback!
I have 40# braid as my mainline which is important for fishing deeper and no stretch in the line for hooksets. From the mainline I have a duolock (swivel) that connects a 20#-30# fluorocarbon leader (roughly 4 feet long).
Thank you for the video! What brand is your kayak? Are there any pedal kayaks that you would recommend?
Hey! Mine is an Old Town (brand). Salty 120 PDL (model). I’m looking to make a video on the full breakdown on my kayak and accessories. It really suits the type of fishing that I do on the ocean, and it certainly more than enough for any lake.
As for recommendation, I’ve never tried any other pedal kayak than an Old Town. But I love their peddle drive. And I like the price point compared to Hobie, which was too much for me at this point.
Thank you
Can you recommend placed for putting in kayak around Nanaimo please. My wife and I planning to stay in Nanaimo for two or three nights and I think of cartop my kayak and do some fishing....I hope it will come true...haha..Thank you.
Launch out of Charlaine Ramp (near Pipers Lagoon). Easy access to the water there and parking available. You can go right out and fish or kayak along the coast.
@@BCFishingJournal Thank you!
How do you know how much line to let out? Also any suggestions for lures?
I usually get the jig to the bottom then work it through the water columns. Lures I like are Buzz Bombs & Lil’ Nibs.
nice ty@@BCFishingJournal
Are you using any weights to get it down? Also, what kind of Jig are you using? Thanks
I post all my gear, tide timing, etc for this trip on my website. Check my ‘Journals’ section for past trips as well.
And for this particular trip see:

@@BCFishingJournal Thanks
👍🏻🇨🇦
Beautiful British Columbia…………That’s an understatement…………
I normally troll for salmon, but yeah, I gotta try vertical jigging!
It’s a blast! Feeling the strikes makes it one of my favorite methods.
is this nanaimo?
All my kayaking (so far) has been around the Nanaimo area.
Where are you at? Thanks
Nanaimo, Van Island.
Great vid!
hi there, could you send me a spot you launched? I am planning a trip to the island. Thx!
I don't name spots, but if your looking for a launching point, I would recommend Charlaine Ramp in Nanaimo. I launch out of there almost 80% of my trips right now.
@@BCFishingJournal thanks, a spot to launch is enough. I like to explore!
wanna move to nanaimo too…….
surrey by the sea!
@@Goats22 Nanaimo is changing, a lot of young families and businesses moving here. It’s more than up and coming IMO.
@@BCFishingJournal haha you are totally correct, i was just joking around! i almost moved to Nanaimo but settled for the Comox Valley. if you want to fish some salmon on the Punt this fall lmk I can share some spots my dude
you are not the only one...hahaha....I love my Howe Sound but fishing is not that good...for kayak fishing...I have Sportsmen 120 PDL...it super stable but not very fast...hard to cover long distances.....
@@Goats22 I’d love to fish the Punt with you. I’ve been there a few times and slammed the coho. Happy to compare notes on spots. Message me on InstaGram or Facebook.
you shouldn't boat or even touch the undersized salmon. wet release for maximum survivability.
@@thecount1001 I appreciate your concern for the salmon as I do as well. I had to boat this guy in order to get the hook out. In this case he took it pretty deep.
put that US fish back so that I can catch him
Be sure to say “what’s up” for me when you catch him.
Dont want to be a dick but you have to improve your landing game when it comes to salmon. That first fish has almost no shot at surviving with the way you brought it into your kayak.
@@Team-Zissou I can appreciate that note and concern for the salmon, but in this case the salmon took the jig pretty deep so I can to boat him to get it out.
Gonna loose a fish playing with your face fabric
Who me? Never. 🙃
