Vancouver Island adventure!
« on: December 17, 2011, 11:52:13 AM »

Hey guys

Over on the Island Courtenay area doing the holiday visit and have a day to go fishing tomorrow I was planning on heading to the Stamp but I have heard how beautiful gold river is . My question is: Taking into account the travel time to gold river, would you recommend going with no knowledge of the area^ would i just spend the day looking for the river instead of fishing^ not looking for gps or exact spots just some guidance or areas around my location would be awesome. feel free to shoot me email or pm if need thanks guys!!

hey brown man do yourself a favour and go to the stamp, the gold is better in feb. and it is a harder river to fish if you are a newby lots of canyon water, i'm sure someone on here can help you with the stamp after all it is xmas
