I've had no luck at all on the tidal fraser! But there are still a fair number of coho coming through, had a buddy out on a gill netter yesterday and they released quite a few

Lots of articles etc on this page about bull trout fishing in the Tidal Fraser River:

http://www.fishingwithrod.com/fishy_news/2013-09-30-tidal-fraser-river-coho-salmon-opening.html

Catch and release only, no retention of bull trout allowed as there are no hatchery marked fish.

I've had bull trout chase my lures many times, but I never landed one. Yesterday, I used a Blue Fox Foxee jig and it gulped down the lure near the surface and spat it out right away.

I still haven't landed a single coho for this month and I feel like giving up.

I went this morning, didn't catch anything but saw a couple rise at Duncan bar.  Really relaxing, nothing better.  Giver a go its better than sitting in fount of the boob tube.

Spent a few hours around Alex Fraser bridge and again at dapper ton park. No luck, dead calm on the water. Relaxing either way tho. Not sure if it is done for the Fraser or just a lull between pushes.

Definitely seems to be getting slower but they are out there. The best bites are likely at dusk, dawn, and tide changes (I believe the incoming and high tide are the better). Been out myself with less luck than usually for the coho but definitely saw lots of chums jumping further out. Should be running through the tidal until early December. The lull is likely because several reasons, one I can think of being the weather change with fore coming rains.
