Speaking of Larger fish:
During Late May and Early June, there can be alot of salmon coming down the way usually offshore but sometimes in Barkley SOund for the spawning herring. They have overfished the herring so alot of the good inside fishing is being pushed out onto the banks. OFf Ucluelet, Wya Pt, The Wreck, SW bank(commercials also hit), Lighthouse, red buoy as you leave Ucluelet harbor. Big Bank is great but a long ways. Many of the WA fish come by and fishing can be good for alot of fish. There are herring, candlefish, pilchards, etc that keep them on the banks. Follow the guides or just ask them at uCluelet. Great fishing right when you come out of the harbor but lots of pinnacles so tide dependant. Early coho in July can be great.
With the decrease in herring the inside of Barkley SOund can have some marginal success unless the larger fish move inside and they can. Bottomfish in alot of the inside of Barkley is OK. Ucluelet and Tofino are superb. Please release ling cod over 20# since they usually are brood stock. I have a home in Barkley so I know it better than Washington waters. Last few years have been restricted but I don't mind catch and release. The king runs have been up and down but we caught around 60 kings over 18# (most released) for last year but I've been fishing there 14 yrs. For May/June if you don't mind the water, I'd go off the banks out of Ucluelet for the most fish. You sometimes have to be fast to go through silvers. On the outside areas of Barkley is also good because some kings coming down stay close to shore. Closer to July might also be good in these areas. May/June bank fishing also gives you halibut. Barkley SOund on the inside may have only 1-2 fish/day limits due to DFO being worried about their 5 yr old fish. Barkley sound kings normal range is 20-32# and the hathery likes large females to keep the size up. Good luck and catch-n-release will keep it good. Canadian PRincess does not and are costing them their future and more fuel costs since they overfish bottomfish. Ucluelet SE bank is close at 4-5 miles from the harbor exit and is close and can be good. Weather plays a big part. I recall Early june had flatter tides. Good luck, nice forum here and I'm new to it. Ucluelet's Forencia bay is 4-5 miles up the coast and has shelter. Some halibut, island, kelp, some inside fishing in calm waters.
