We were with Peregrine Lodge out of Naden Harbour - west of Masset. Very good lodge, we had good guides, great food and service. We fished last trip (late Aug) with this lodge in 2016 and I kept 4 springs and released 20. So the low number of salmon was unusual.

Our fishing was from in tight to about a mile out. We picked up one spring in 200 ft. and this one at 60. Fishing was very tough with an avg of 4 to 5 springs a day between 33 people. The lodge canvased other lodges on the northern end and they were all having the same results. The fish were either late or not there. Having the licence cut back from 2 a day and 4 in possession to 1 a day and 2 in possession makes me think that the run for that area will be low.
We had no issues for nice Halibut. I had a barn door on for quite a while until it spooled us out. Clearly an over and after fighting for an hour losing line and chasing it with the boat I am thinking that the next one like that I would ask for it to be cut loose to allow the focus back onto fish in the slot size.
Released fish - 2 pinks, several under Halibut, 3 lingcod, a number of yellow eye and rock fish

One of the other guests on our trip had fished with this lodge and had very good things to say. I would be interested in hearing from you when you get back.
