Squamish River, December 20th 2011
« on: December 21, 2011, 12:15:16 PM »

Went up to the Squamish just looking for a nice relaxing drive and a bit of exploring/hiking.

Thankfully I had my rod in my backpack because I came to a hole that had more coho then I've seen in one spot all year.  This was a surprise to me to see so many fish  :o

I spent about 3 hours fishing and the cohos loved the twisty tails jigs.

The jigs were fished with an up and down action (jigging)

I got a PM requesting some information but I cannot PM back so try again with an email addy.

No float just a a jig tied to the mainline.  Also not fishing the main current but some nice deep backeddies/pools.

coho love bunny jigs fishwed in a twitching method. All colors work well but top ones usually are pink followed by purple then black. Had a good season at squamish fishing these things
