Although I do sense the sarcasm in this post, this is actually the plan. Im gonna go get a decent little fly rod set up, learn to trick some trout, and then next year move up to a 9wt for the Salmon run. So this year, salmon is done for this angler. Was an awesome summer. Learned a lot, and had some of the best experiences of my life. Gained a lot of respect for fish, and the waterways that I once looked at as just a barrier to the other side of the city. This forum helped a lot with that!

Salmon done for you? It's just starting for me. Mmm coho.

+1 Salmon Season is just starting

[frozensalmon]

Yep, catching is over, best to stay home.

well it's almost over in Richmond Fraser , that's what i'm saying

i'm heading to chilliwack soon

[jizza]

went to delta yesterday. The pinks are still out there as I managed to hook 5; however, it looks like it's just about over.

Don't forget all the fish that swim up the Vedder etc...have to swim through Richmond first.  Barfishing and spincasting can be VERY productive in Richmond.

Pitt Meadows - A few jumpers. Only one pink caught, but caught a fresh hatchery Coho on a bright pink spoon.

Yup done for me! I wouldnt be able to haul in Coho's on my rod, and was not prepared to drop another 100-200 on a setup that I could do more on. Id rather get lots of practice on the fly in before next year.

Nothing wrong with cohos on the fly.

Yes, completely dead for pink in Richmond , I've spend 1.5 hour each day after work for the last 3 days tried to catch my last pink of this season, nothing, not even a single roller . However, I caught 2 bulltrout on 25th and 26th, good fighter .

Sorry for the wrong quote above. This is the right one.

We fished two different locations in and near Richmond today with mixed results. At one spot, we saw quite a few rises during the evening incoming tide but didn't manage to hook any beside the one miss I had. At the other spot, about a dozen fish were hooked among five people. A few pink salmon were landed, but nearly half of the fish hooked were adult and jack coho salmon. This is a pretty good sign for what to look forward to in the valley coho salmon fishery.



If you manage to hook a fish right now in the Fraser River, please double check and identify the fish in the net before bringing it up. If it is a coho salmon, it needs to be released carefully because coho salmon retention is closed until early October (October 7th for the Tidal Fraser).

Have fun! IMO this is a very exciting and pleasant time to be fishing on the Fraser River. The crowd is gone, you have a good chance of getting into a variety of species and the weather is still reasonably good.

[Sandman]

That looks like a coho Rod, you had better release it, but I would not suggest taking pictures of your fish and posting here and waiting for us to identify it before you release it as it probably will not survive.

I caught a coho spin casting the fraser this past weekend. I changed my spinner from orange blade to pink blade, so I wouldn't entice further coho strikes.

LOL!  Too funny!
