planning to go to lafarge/ rice lake soon, im new to fly fishing, what kind/type of flies will be productive for those lakes, i dont really know all the flies name, i have checked online and people say dry fly isnt really productive in local lakes, what suggestion do u guys have? thank you
-
my fav go to still water pattern is a simi leach tied with black and red arizona simis seal dub that or a pumpkin head
-
do u have a pic of it? so i can go take a look within the store
-
try small black/red or olive micro leeches either trolled with dry line/ long leader or a slow sink or cast stripped with slow sink.
if you want to anchor up and chironie fish then use size 12/14 black body, red rib with a white or copper bead. I usually fish these only about 4' down from the indicator.
I also have a custom green with white bead that works great there but you wont find it at a store. I also never fish stripped or trolled flies there because i rather sit and get some bobber watching practice lol
you may see me out there in a little white wooden boat, come by and say Hi
-
Olive green Woolley bugger size 10
Olive dubbing leech in 10 and 12 with brass or orange glass head
But really for stocker trout anything green brown olive black and red small and fuzzy will work
-

I usually hit Lafarge a few times before the Interior lakes start icing off. Its a nie break away from the Vedder steely fishing as well, meaning its nice to catch fish on the fly after all the no fish days LoL ;)
We usually always go on sundays because parking is free
Did i mention i also love watching the "bobber" get plunged ;D
-
lol i love float fishing too, when the float sink down, its exciting, have u fish in capilano river before? i want to try fish for salmon but i have never tried before.
-
For flies go look at first light fishing tackle most of his flies were tied by a local guy not someone in china and are exactly what you are looking for.
-
no i do not fish the "crap" ilano river ;)
I fished it a few times many years ago but the things that go on there disgusted me enough that i have never and will never return. Its just not a place for me
Good luck if you go there and i hope you have a good time
-
why disgusted u, what happened?
-
it wasn't just 1 or 2 things. It was a wide arrangement of things. it went from garbage everywhere right through to watching several people fish in the closed area below the hatchery, saw a fist fight over a spot and always lots of yelling and cursing, the way fish are treated there, people keeping illegally caught fish........etc. :'( :'(
I know you can walk and get away from the majority of the stupid stuff which we tried to do but never found any decent spots without hoards of people. I know this same stuff goes on on other streams/rivers as well but at least there you can normally get away from it by doing some hiking.
lots of people love fishing the Capilano, its just not for me. I do however like fishing just outside the mouth of the river but also havent bothered in years when there is better/more enjoyable fishing closer to me

I always have success on the doc spratley in black, wine, purple.

I think he's discusted by poor ethics and horrible edicate
-
Kalex - you meaning me ?
of course the ethics and fish mishandling irritates me however there was alot more than that, like garbage along the river banks/path/floating downriver. It was just a mass of everything combined that turned me away from that river.
im sure we all have places that we avoid and that river is the main one for me. A buddy of mine asks me every year to hit the Cap with him, i politely decline and he knows why but he still continue to ask. I think he is hoping to catch me in a moment of weakness eventualy LoL
-
Yeah I meant you and I agree there it to much garbage everywhere

I can relate to everything your saying, I to had a buddy who wanted me to get into it at the Cap and when I went with him a couple of times it turned out to be everything I go fishing to get away from!!
