Chilliwack River, January 18th 2010
« on: January 18, 2010, 05:48:30 PM »
Decided to head out after noticing the wind stopped howling around 11:00am.

Got to the river around 12:00pm and started fishing around the Lickman area. Spoke to a few guys and none saw or hooked into anything.

I decided to head back to the parking area and started fishing the run below it. Not long after that, a guy walked into the same run but he was across on the other side.

Lo and behold, he got into one almost immediately. I assumed it was a hatch because it was bonked and kept.



A picture of the guy playing the fish( not very clear as it was a bit too far ).

I wish that I had caught that fish as fast as Cohoman has stated.  I started that morning off at 9 am and it was 2:30 pm when I hooked it.  This was my 5th time out this season and my first fish this year.  That fish was just under 8 lbs.  What a great feeling to feel that head shake.  Looking forward to the next trip.

Cheers

Hi Fishbuster

I was trying to get a video of you fighting the fish but my video-phone did not work so I just snapped a couple of pix.

I got into one today.

Cheers!!
