Chilliwack River, October 28th 2014
« on: October 28, 2014, 10:55:03 AM »
Since the rain didn't really come last night, I decided to bring a couple of guests from the UK out at first light today. We fished a big pool where coho salmon could be seen circling around. Casting and retrieving 1/4oz Gibbs Croc spoons did the trick. The bites lasted 30 minutes at dawn and we managed to beach two hatchery coho salmon while losing a couple more and missing a bunch.

  I thing I would use the word "friends" instead of "guests" unless you have a guide license or some one was with you that had a license.

You can say whatever you want. It only counts if they're paying you. Guests/Friends is purely semantics.

That's why I keep telling my wife we should charge our "guests" every time we invite them to our house for dinner. :D
Nice fish and nice picture Rod.

I'm afraid to admit that I live on the Island after this comment :-[

I wasn't aware that I should charge the guests in my house! I am missing out! ;D

My FRIENDS ;D and I returned to the same spot tonight and one of them got into the biggest one of the season almost right away, on a 1/4oz copper fire striped Croc spoon.
