HaHa Chris was rite the river was full of anglers, I was one of them Sun,Jan2nd The conditions were beautifull Fished the upper for 5hrs lots of guys, also I agree after today being Monday alot of us go back to work.
Fished about 5times on the chilliwack in last month and I havent even gots 1 bite lol?
I know you guys put in your time and get fish, but its kinda hard to believe some of these guys say 2nd trip.... 2nd fish,or 5th time out 5th fish landed lol, how they do that?
Thanks to this site for all the info you guys provide on conditions, fish caught, general etiquettes on the river I learned lots of good stuff from here.
Good luck to all, tight lines everyone.

I hooked 3 fish/landed 1 on my first trip and haven't touched anything now in 3 trips, might not hook another for a while.  That's how this game is played and I wouldn't have it any other way ;D.  It's masochistic in a way... Every lost fish is replayed in my mind about 1000 times; my work suffers because of it.  I probably speak for everyone here when I say that people who don't fish, and even some that do, just don't understand.  They'll think you're crazy for working so hard at something that apparently gives so little back... but we all know better.

You should be skeptical when people say 5th trip 5th fish... there always seem to be lots of fish hooked, especially when no one is looking ;)   With some people it may be legit when they say hooked four landed two today, though with most a "hooked" usually means bottom, and landed usually means hooked for 10 seconds before it shook the hook, and caught means they fought it long enough to see it was a fish before they lost it.  ;)

Well I went 3 trips 3 fish (with pictures of each) and now I've gone two trips with nothing. Sometimes it's luck, sometimes it's skill.

I don't reject above post here but with so many good fishermen on the river and yet so less fish in the river you need to be more in lucky side.
