| Feb. 2nd Fishing Report for Smithers by Cory Koenig |
 |
| Are you suffering from the WINTER vitamin "D" deficiency BLUES?? I strongly suggest to GO ICE-FISHING! ...At least, that is what I do as a stress relief and or to simply get outside during the LONG WINTER months in Northern B.C. The day was beauuutiful, but the fishing was tough... The weather has been less than nice enough to fish recently, so today I tried a little icefishing quickly today. I tried using some of these flies for icefishing; minnows, bloodworms, shrimp patterns, leeches and nymphs all work quite well,. |
 typically, and today the white gammarus style shrimp pattern was the ticket, twitching the fly very lightly... here is what was found in the bellies of the three cutthroat I caught today.>...
I have some tying to do! -(Not to mention the chunks of !!Cooked!! Prawn stolen from the last anglers!) |
 I managed to make this short youtube video >>CLICK HERE>> to view. I fooled 1 cutthroat with a #12 damsel fly larvae, (the same one in this photo)> and 3 other cutthroat with the white gammarus styled shrimp in the photo above. The weather was beyond perfect for soaking in the view, standing and augering holes. An it was just beyond nice to get out and take in the resources so close to home!
Thanks for reading and I will try to get out there for char/lake trout and/or some of the fine rainbow trout fishing available in the Bulkley Valley. Have a great day!
