fished the last few days for an hour or two a day around Glen Valley area, different tides - tossing things like Gibbs Koho and Crocs.  Average 1-2 per trip, all Jacks or wilds though.....  vis today no change over the past week.

Finally caught my first Lower Fraser River wild coho on a number 5 vibrax spinner 1 hour after high tide in New Westminister. Thanks Rod and everyone for the tips!

1.5-2 ft. vis @ Brownsville this morning...it was already pretty crowded at 7:30 am. Lots of coho action with many large hatchery fish (and many more jacks) landed on the outgoing tide.  Went home with 2 legal sized hatchery jacks.

Caught my first fish on the Fraser earlier this week in Delta, about 12" bulltrout using a 1/2 oz Croc spoon. :)
Almost caught my first Salmon, had it hooked, but it broke free after about 10 seconds.
Both fish were hooked within 5ft of shore, which made me think I had snagged on a rock both times. The bulltrout felt so light on my rod that I didn't even realize it was hooked until I saw it out of the water.
Thanks to everybody for all the tips and hopefully I'll catch my first Salmon yet!

Hows productivity the past few days.last time I went out was monday and it was pretty slow all day and picked up at a very odd tide for where I was fishing.
Was out last Monday too @ the same place and it was very slow as well. Landed one wild jack and had a few missed hits. Only saw one good-sized hatchery coho landed plus 1 chum. All this in a 30-45 minute or so window. Was planning on heading out early this morning for the good low tide but ended up sleeping in!  >:( Oh well...

Are there Coho & Chum still to be had in the Fraser? I would like to try again this weekend as I've yet to catch anything despite my efforts so far.

there still would be the odd fish....tend to get more bull trout around this time of year along with coho but biggest issue would be water clarity with all this rain. just looks nasty the color.

12-18 inches of vis at Glen Valley right now.  1 wild coho landed by a fisherman nearby.

used to be we'd bar fish at least until the middle of November so there should be fish around.

I have a few pounds of chum roe to use up. I'm thinking about going back to Glen Valley along the stretch with the old cars.
Is this area still viable to bar rig and cast?
