i've walked to the capilano from my house which is in kitsilano, and its a bellow average river. Take the bus, ask for a ride!? The more snow the better, the colder it is, the more people stay in 

[Fish Assassin]

But you still have to catch a steelhead to be in the running for the prizes

[BigFisher]

Just curious.... Is this a go even with the snow thats still coming down? Has It ever been delayed due to heavy snow? Its coming down really good right now.  will we not hear till derby day?

  In the past they have been really good about getting on this site either the night before or really early in the morning to announce that it is cancelled for that day.

As it is milding up I would think it would be a go as it has in past derbies with a lot worse conditions but it all depends on the derby chairman's call.

One year it was so bad no fish were caught on derby day so they they ran it again, in the same year.

[nosey]

I was out yesterday and the water conditions were good, finding a place to park could be a big  problem, the parking lot at Tamihi wasn't plowed if your're thinking of punching your ticket there and there seemed to be very few areas you'd be able to get a 2 wheel drive off the road to park and go fish.  I don't know how parking and access will work out downriver with all the snow around but good luck anyhow.

When I talked to Wade a couple weeks ago I asked if he was going 3 straight and he says hes gonna try his best. Im willing too bet $$$$ hes gonna take it again lol

[kingpin]

im sure he has it tied up in a back channel already 

[BigFisher]

No hes been using the same fish for the last couple of derbys.... Hes thawing it back out as we speak. 

[Every Day]

[waterboy]
