Sorry for the late post about the weekend!!!! But here it is. Fished the lower fraser again this weekend. Tried 3 different spots at various tides. Used Spring roe, Pink roe, and some Chum roe. First thing in the morning, on the pinl roe, hit a 4 lb dolly in about 10 min. Put up a pretty good fight!!
Man is that ever a nice looking fish. Well to me anyways. Then about an hr or so later the pole goes off again, this time a much bigger hit, more aggressive. Set the hook, nice head shakes, and when I got hime to shore, turned out to be another 3-4 lb wild coho, so let him genlty go to return to his travels. After that, it slowed a bit so I headed up river to a spot that is usually good on high tide. Nothing there. Not even a sniff. At this point I was almost out of roe. What to do?
Awww I got it!!!! I called Searun 17 and asked if he wanted to go fishing. he said yes, I said "bring a lot of roe". Problem solved!!!!
So, about an hr later we are back on the river in the third spot of the day. We got our lines in the water, about 5 min later, Searuns pole heads for the water!!!!! Set the hook, pole doubles, Fish on is yelled. Followed by, Fish off!!!!! That was just the start of 5 straight massive hits that Searun had. Bad hooksets I guess!!
We only got to see one of the fish. A rather nice 10lb doe chum. Then It pretty much turned off. Until about we were ready to leave. I was packing up the rest of my gear, searun yells,"Hey your rod". Almost gave me a freakin heartattack. By the time I recovered, the rod was still. Didn't move again!!!!!
But all in all, it was an entertaining day!!!! With a fair amount of excitement. You know it is pretty strange. I have now hit 5 coho bar fishing, only 2 float fishing. I would have never expected that at the start of the year. But it will change rather quickly, I'm having some float fishing withdraw!!!!
I'm gonna have to go get me some ho's floatin this weekend!!!!
