Fished near the pumping station on Tues.. River level was great and water a
nice tea colour. Still numbers of coho moving through, although most were getting
slightly tinged or morphing to a crimson hue. We saw two chromers taken, in
four hours fishing. Many others, in various states of sunburnt colour, fought,
lost, and beached, and generally had a fun day. It's a great time to take a
yong lad to get him hooked on our favourite pastime. One curious thought spawned,
(get it?), by the sight across the river. Why do anglers or beeksters bonk chums
and stuff them into their non see through bags to take home? Do they dig them
into the garden for fertilizer,,,feed them to the cat? Do they actually smoke
them for personal consumption? ( Like Rivahman says, "a boot goes in, a
boot comes out"). Just wondering.

Fishin; if you are looking for a place where salmon bite, the Steveston box
or wall is mainly for snagging. Very popular for sockeye. The fish get trapped
up against the planks and pilings. You need a small boat, lots of lead and big
hooks. park at the boat launch just east of Shady Island and zip over. Look
for the boats. This morning there were only 3 or 4 boat trailers there.

Hey FM and others, I have been chucking flies at Ho's and doing really well.
The last few trips have yielded up to 10 coho per trip. Shallow water about
3-5 feet deep and away from the main current seem to be the trick. And yeah,
I have been hitting some very nice chum does on the coho flies. The chums are
thick but I see quite a few coho out there too. The bite does come on big and
then it's off big too. Cheers to all.

for at least 24 hours. Probably 100 guys there Sunday. I saw at least 5 clean

You can avoid the zoo at the hatchery channel by going for a short walk and
getting to the fish first. Good luck.
