chilliwack River, August 29th & 30th 2008
« on: September 01, 2008, 11:43:20 AM »
arrived friday afternoon set up in the rain, the river at vedder crossing looked like the fraser on a good day, the river was high and dirty all the way up. sat am river was droping and visibility was  about a foot, sat afternoon was mint river was in great shape couldn't believe the change in such a short time, looking for springs, threw some roe, roe sacs, spoons, nota. did'nt even see any fish moving [above the pools] my son the 4 year old out fished me with dew worms slaying some small trout. I have been up their the last 4 weekends in a row still no salmon don't know if I'm late or early? I know the coho should be moving in about now, did'nt see any either.

Lol beleive me.... they are in, listen to Spring he knows what he is talking about. Right now you have to know what you are doing and you need to find the right water, good luck. It's not about getting fish anyways, it's about having fun, fish are a bonus.  ;)

I think it is still a little early in the season to expect ggod results, ususally by the third week of sept it really gets going

This is the best week for Coho right now.  Few people, good numbers of fish usually.  Again you gotta be in the right place.  Id be there but I live far far away now
