How is the river today? Any update will be much appreciated. End of season is near for us gear guys. Thinking of trying tomorrow before hanging up my steelhead gears until next year.

clarity today in the morning was around one foot by mid river.   I didn't check the upper side but clarity in lower was around 1.5 to max 2 feet.  overall the condition was good.
I left by 10AM and don't know what happen after, but rain was stopping by that time.   Now it should have improved even better.  Water was not high.

to bad they were probably above the crossing and you wont be able to fish them anymore after Saturday because the river closes above the crossing bridge and goes "FLY ONLY" below for the month of May 


anybody got a clarity update to post from today ?? I notice its gone up a bit on the graph so im wondering how dirty its gotten. Thanks

so you can only float fish below te crossing for may?? where is considered the crossing?

[roseph]

you can only fly fish in May below the Vedder crossing.

"The Crossing" is the bridge over the river at Vedder Crossing (the iron trestle bridge).  The river below that is open to "Fly Fishing Only" and to quote the regs:
"fly fishing … angling with a line to which only an artificial fly is attached (floats, sinkers, or attracting devices may not be attached to the line when fishing is restricted to "fly fishing only”).

You and many others...I don't even buy a license anymore...nobody checks on you anyways.

Not so Milo While walking Sidthedog this morning I saw a Fishery Officer checking anglers licenses.  Great to see an enforcement presence on the Vedder.

as far as the fly only goes, would a strike indicator be ok with a small splittie and a fly (egg fly)

Got checked on tuesday

[BigFisher]

On tuesday there were CO's everywhere, havent seen anything like it on the Vedder before. One leaving the vedder, one checking back behind OTW and another getting a donut. Nice to see, But I hope they didnt just show up because of the nice weather were having....

[Dave]

Hey BigFisher, sure they were CO's and not FO's??    If indeed it was the Province out in force, great.  Wonder where they found the gas money
