lookin to come back from the island on friday and fish the v with my buddies on sunday. tried the cowichan a couple of days ago, it was super cold in the morning when we were drifting some nice water about mid river but we didnt hook into anything, we were using little corkies with a spin and glo with splitshot and float - which was suggested to us by island outfitters so i know we had the right gear just that the steelhead gods decided it wasn't the day when we would both catch our first steel. hoping to give it another shot this weekend, think i should stay out here and try the cowichan or come over and hit the vedder? will ocnditions and fish numbers be improving witht the expected rain..thanks alot
