Nice report Steve; you have many fish in your future. I for one am pleased to see your optimism as opposed to the pessimism displayed by so many others.

Stave River's steelhead stock is entirely hatchery supplemented. Ten pairs (not entirely sure, as the number is just off the top of my head) of brood fish are collected to produce the stock, so one should not expect a big return compared to what other larger systems may receive.

Here's more information.

Stave was decent today. Water vis. was 6 ft plus, which is more than I can say for the Vedder right now.
Lots of dogs, but no coho being caught that I saw.

Looked great yesterday, but we hit a bunch of rainfall in Chilliwack, so I cant say anymore.
