Pacific Angler Friday Fishing Report: December 20, 2024

OUTLOOK Five days until Christmas!  This will be the last report before the 25th so we will take a moment to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday Season!   With the 25th in sight, you still have time if you are looking for gifts or you are worried loved ones will get you the wrong gift.  Send them our way!  We can process gift cards in the shop or online if you are getting close to the wire and can’t get down to see us in person. Continuing with a holiday theme we know many of you are going on amazing warm weather family vacations.  Mexico, Bahamas, South Pacific and beyond are amazing places to take the family but they are also amazing fishing destinations.  Matt has an update on his guide for turning a family vacation into a low stress, low key fishing vacation guaranteed to not burn too many brownie points.  Check that out below! On the local fishing front, the Holiday Season is still a great time to sneak out on the water. There are options for winter chinook fishing, steelhead fishing and winter trout fishing.  We have had boats out this last week and Jason has details on the winter chinook fishing.  Eric has been putting boots to ground on the winter trout fisheries and has some updates on the Sea to Sky...
