Tossed some flies and spoons around Chilliwack, Caught 1 (pinks) hooked about 5 in 2 hours, They would come in schools then disappear for awhile, spotty but good at time.

Out a Haney Wharf last night - had a chromie follow my lure up to the top (changed its mind when it saw 'the light') and a couple jumping out to taunt us.  Otherwise - nobody had any takers.

Fished Brownsville bar last night after work, got three solid bite but all lost. Two pinks were landed by the guy besides me though.

Tried this morning from 6:00AM to 7:30AM, lots of fish jumping in front of me but no bite.

What is the best size of hook for pinks when using spoons/spinners?

I went to No. 3 Rd after work last night – high tide. As soon as I got there the guy right beside me had a pink on – he lost it. I had one bite. Saw a bunch of pinks jumping right around 6:00. Then it quickly died off.

Fished along Fraser at New West near Putallo Brdg (accross from Brownsvile).
No action; saw one jumping in the middle of the river.  about 10 people fishing and no one had any bites.

Is it possilbe the Pinks are swimming in a deeper water and not near the surface?

Fished from 6:00 to 8:30 pm.  Saw a lot of fish surfacing and jumping.  Mostly out in the middle of the river.  After high tide and just before sunset, they came in close.  Got a few hits but no fish on.  Certainly better than yesterday.

I think the fish are here now...

I agree. Fished from 1500-2000hrs.  Hooked 5 and landed 3.  But all those hooked were in the last 1.5 hrs.
I fished three different spots along the south arm in Richmond.
Saw literally thousands of fish in the last couple hours.  The majority of them were well out of casting distance.
They are definately moving in.
