Fraser Spring #1 for this season
« on: June 24, 2006, 08:51:14 PM »

We went out around Chilliwack today for a few hours. I got a small but bright and tasty 12-lb Spring. I dropped another off and I saw at least 12 others with fish on as well.

Woo Hoo - Spring #2. My buddy got his fist of the season today as well. His was 12-lbs and mine was just about touching the 18-lb mark on the scale. His fish was jumping like mad I was lucky enough to reach the net out and catch him in the air. Just like the days when I played b-ball - nothin' but net.  ;D.

Was out barfishing today in Chilliwack. Lots of mosquitos and very hot ended our day early. Even though we had some Off they were still biting us. Nice to fish with you again Big Steel. Hopefully we'll hit the Vedder next weekend. Didnt get a touch but saw some bottom bouncers get one or two at the mouth of the Harrison. Wish they would use selective methods but nothing we can do to stop them.

Saw on the albion test nets that the numbers are getting much better.

Yeah Brian, it was a blast today!!  The skeeters were a bit of a pain, but I guess they didn't like me much after the few first tastes!!  They left me alone for they last while!! :D  We did see one heck of a big eagle fly over head, and the net come out a few times in that jet, but that was about it!!  So, I stopped at the car show on the way home and got some nice pics of some beauty cars!!!  :o  Didn't stay long though, as Eddie mentioned, it was an absolute scorcher out there!!   ;)

I guess people want the river closed down as we have been asked to fish using methods that don't work on sockeye but people continue to do it and posting it on the net your basically slapping fisheries in the face . Lets use some common sense I also bottom bounce when permitted but for now bar fishing is the method perferred by dfo if we all go out and bb they will close us down completely let the early run sockeye through we will eventually get our opening.

not my intent to have stir crap up but just thought I'd post because we'd caught our first spring of the year as for sockeye i really don't care if they open or not, from the past as i remember you'd shorten your leader to about 3-6 feet max as for the so called perferd method to fish
